2. Carolyn wasn’t planning on working on COVID-19, but she had developed excellent multi parameter flow cytometry panels for other human T cell studies, and AIM assays, and I needed her to take the lead on COVID-19 T cell work,
3. so she dropped her other project and has worked full time on COVID-19 for the past 6 months, trying to understand immunity to COVID-19. Culminating in the new paper.
4. Carolyn came to us from Cincinnati, where she did her PhD at Cincinnati Children’s. She’s a big fan of animals, and she knows way more about horses than I ever will. It’s clear that if she could have a horse ranch in the middle of San Diego she would!
5. Carolyn is an excellent scientist and a wonderful team player, and it is people like her who are making a difference in our scientific understanding of this horrible disease.
