First person – Trace Stay

Abstract

ABSTRACTFirst Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Disease Models & Mechanisms, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Trace Stay is first author on ‘In vivo cerebellar circuit function is disrupted in an mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy’, published in DMM. Trace conducted the research described in this article while a PhD student in Roy V. Sillitoe's lab at the Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX, USA. He is now a postdoctoral scholar in the lab of Jennifer L. Raymond at Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA, investigating how the cerebellum interacts with sensory input to influence motor control and more cognitive processing.
