Ugljesa Djuric \u2013\u00a0PhD Student,\u00a02007-2014<\/span><\/h4>\n

Ugljesa Djuric, known as Ugi, obtained his M.Sc. from McGill University working on the genetics and epigenetics of hydatiform moles. In the Ellis lab, Djuric\u00a0studied\u00a0epigenetic pathways involved in chromatin restructuring during reprogramming and MECP2 molecular mechanisms in Rett syndrome disease models.<\/p>\n

When not precipitating chromatin, Djuric\u00a0liked to precipitate himself down snow-covered mountains on the west coast.<\/p>\n
