Hanwei Fang, a PhD candidate at The University of Geneva, and former Bagher Lab member, visited the lab in Temple. Hanwei was a member of the Bagher Lab while studying for his Masters in Pharmacology at the University of Oxford, where he worked on the characterization of neurotransmitter composition from perivascular nerves.
