Congrats, Dr. Benthal!

Who: Joseph Benthal, PhD

PI Mentor: Dr. Michelle Southard-Smith

Research: For my dissertation, I studied the development of the enteric nervous system (gut brain) using mice and single cell sequencing.

Vanderbilt Impact:

“I relied heavily on the Flow Cytometry shared resource for my experiments. I also appreciated the ASPIRE Data Science module for inclusion of both use of Python for Machine Learning (Nashville Software School visiting instructors) as well as data science career support.”
