Origin of Amphibian Abdominal Musculature

这是女性职业发展研究机会奖，使林奇博士能够延长她在加州大学欧文分校斯科特·弗雷泽博士实验室的休假。在休假期间，Lynch博士正在学习新技术，例如用荧光示踪剂对活细胞进行显微注射，并通过共聚焦显微镜进行监测，她计划将这些技术应用于她对非洲爪蟾变态和肌肉发育的研究。

This is a Research Opportunities for Women Career Advancement Award, to enable Dr. Lynch to extend her sabbatical leave in Dr. Scott Fraser's laboratory at the University of California at Irvine. During this sabbatical, Dr. Lynch is acquiring new techniques, such as microinjection of living cells with fluorescent tracers and monitoring by confocal microscopy, which she plans to apply to her research on Xenopus metamorphosis and muscle development.
