Finding good mentoring relationships is such an important part of career success, I’m continuing to examine this topic by interviewing another of our faculty at the Institute for Genome Sciences. Julie Dunning Hotopp, PhD, is an Assistant Professor, Microbiology & Immunology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, and a scientist at the Institute for Genome Sciences. In 2010, Julie received two prestigious awards – the National Institute of Health Director’s New Innovator Award, and the Grand Challenges Explorations Grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation for her ground-breaking research about the role of lateral gene transfer in human health.
