Two MMG rising academic stars, Diedre Reitz and Yuka Kitamura

Congratulations to Diedre Reitz and Yuka Kitamura, postdoctoral fellows in the Heyer and Namekawa laboratories, respectively, for being awarded prestigious K99 grants from the National Institutes of Health. These awards support the late stage of their postdoctoral fellowship and provide also funding in the R00 phase for their independent faculty career. The sky is the limit for them.
