The Spectacular Collection

Celebrating the Work of Groundbreaking Labs

The Spectacular Collection is the newest collection of RSN where members from expert labs in their respective field talk about their latest discovery. These labs have made groundbreaking discoveries and their work has been published in top journals such as Nature, Cell, and Science. Our talented scientists range from first to corresponding authors. We will be updating this collection every couple weeks so be sure to check back here often.
