👋Welcome to the Palavicini Lab, Lucas!

Lucas analyzing data (effects of mitoglitazone on body composition) in his cubicle

We are excited to welcome Lucas Orme, a senior student at BASIS San Antonio–Shavano Campus, to the Palavicini Lab. From March through mid‑May, Lucas will complete his senior project with us, focusing on the effects of mitoglitazone, an insulin sensitizer, on healthspan while contributing approximately 20 hours per week. He will gain hands‑on experience working with mice and computational analyses and will be mentored closely by Vicki.
