ABSTRACT Stefanie Redemann studied Biology at Darmstadt Technical University, followed by a Master's at EMBL in Heidelberg, Germany. She then pursued a PhD in the labs of Tony Hyman and Jonathon Howard at the Max Planck Institute of Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden, where she investigated the role of the actomyosin cortex in force generation and spindle positioning. After obtaining her doctorate degree in 2009, she joined the lab of Thomas Müller-Reichert at the Medical Theoretical Center in Dresden to work on reconstructing the mitotic spindle using electron tomography. Stefanie started her independent research group in 2018 at the University of Virginia School of Medicine, where she is using interdisciplinary approaches to study spindle assembly and chromosome segregation in both mitosis and meiosis.

ABSTRACT Prachee Avasthi studied Molecular and Integrative Physiology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She received her PhD in neuroscience in 2009 from the lab of Wolfgang Baehr at the University of Utah for her work on the control of membrane protein trafficking in photoreceptors. Prachee then moved to Wallace Marshall's group at the University of California, San Francisco, for her postdoc, where she studied ciliary assembly and the regulation of ciliary length. She set up her lab at the University of Kansas Medical Center in 2015, and relocated to the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth in 2020, where she is an Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Her group investigates the biogenesis of cilia and the coordination of actin- and microtubule-based trafficking.

Dr. Susanne Schmid is the Associate Dean Research, Graduate & Postdoctoral Studies at the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry and an Associate Professor in the Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology at Western University. Dr. Schmid has a background in biology and psychology and obtained a doctorate at the University Eye Hospital in Germany. Her research looks at early stages of sensory information processing and filtering, in particular habituation and prepulse inhibition. Anthony Li, a member of the Academic Affairs Committee for WURJHNS, had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Schmid to learn more about her career path and her research.

Dr. Douglas Hamilton is an Assistant Dean for Research and Associate Professor in Oral Biology and Anatomy & Cell Biology at the Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry. Hamilton completed his Ph.D. at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. His research is in the field of cell biology, biomaterials, and tissue engineering, with a focus on how the surface features of different implant materials affect cell behavior. Dr. Hamilton was interviewed for his professional and personal insights on how undergraduates can begin their journey into scientific research.

In 1969, a teaching program in forensic psychiatry was launched at the University of Virginia School of Medicine. Initially oriented toward the training of psychiatric residents, the Forensic Psychiatry Clinic now offers academic credit to selected law students and draws upon an interdisciplinary faculty. In light of special problems which may arise in forensic evaluations, the paper focuses upon client privacy, confidentiality and privileged communications. Also described are the difficulties of formulating a teaching program responsive simultaneously to the needs of medical students, psychiatric residents and law students.

ABSTRACT Binyam Mogessie was born and raised in Ethiopia. He moved to Germany in 2004, where he studied biochemistry and cell biology at Jacobs University Bremen. He then moved to the UK for his PhD with Anne Straube, first at the Marie Curie Research Institute in Surrey and later at the Centre for Mechanochemical Cell Biology in Warwick, where he investigated the cellular mechanisms that organise the microtubule cytoskeleton during skeletal muscle differentiation. After receiving his PhD in cell biology from the University of London, he joined the laboratory of Melina Schuh in 2012 as a postdoc at the MRC-LMB in Cambridge (and later at the Max Planck Institute in Göttingen, Germany), where he discovered a function of the actin cytoskeleton in accurate chromosome segregation and the prevention of aneuploidy in mammalian eggs. Binyam established his independent research laboratory at the University of Bristol, School of Biochemistry in 2018, where he is a Wellcome Trust and Royal Society Sir Henry Dale fellow and HFSP Young Investigator. He also received a Seed Award from the Wellcome Trust and funding from the Rosetrees Trust and Royal Society. His lab is investigating actin- and microtubule-based cytoskeletal ensembles that promote healthy egg development and embryogenesis in mammals.
