The University of Rijeka, Department of Biotechnology is proud to have collaborated this year with St. Cloud University with:
1. student Amira Zaher, as well as Dr. Marina Cetkovic-Cvrlje on the research project which examines the effect of type 1 diabetes-induced cellular stress on megakaryocyte maturation and platelet formation,
2. student Emma Nelson, as well as Dr. Marina Cetkovic-Cvrlje. The research project, which examines the effect of lactobacillus acidophilus on the growth of escherichia coli, supports our organizational goals.
This is one of many ways that St. Cloud State students unleash amazing. St. Cloud State is delighted to showcase this outstanding student work! #HuskiesShowcase.
