Description
This time on the Anatomy in Clay® Learning System podcast, the guests are two assistant professors of biology from Winthrop University in South Carolina. After earning a Ph.D. from the University of Campinas in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Silvia Wozniak became a post-doctoral fellow at the Department of Neurology at New York University, where she worked with lysosomal storage diseases diagnosis. A year later she moved to the Department of Human Genetics at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York to work on the development of therapy for Niemann-Pick disease. Wozniak joined Winthrop University n 2000. Jena Chojnowski earned her Ph.D in Zoology at the University of Florida. Her postdoctoral research studies were at the University of Georgia working on development of the thymus and eye. In January 2023, she joined the Winthrop University Biology department team. Her research consists of two main areas of interest: developmental biology and stem cell biology. She focuses on a developmental comparative anatomy approach to understand how one organ that accomplishes one goal, to detect light and convert it into electro-chemical impulses in neurons, can be utilized in so many diverse ways.
