Whitney Green, a Princeton University senior characterized the proteins present on the surfaces of immune system cells from HapMap cell lines. Stephanie Hughes, a Jackson State University senior Explored how evolution might shape introns — short pieces of DNA that are removed from genes before they are read into proteins. Renaldo Webb, a freshman at MIT Developed an improved annotation system that will help to maximize the gene expression data from Affymetrix gene-chips.
