Bio
Matthew "Oki" O'Connor
I was a colleague of Stela's at UC Berkeley. She's basically amazing. Organized, focused, dependable. She's one of those people who you can go to with anything that just needs to get done, but it really really needs to get done.
Kenny Beckman
I worked with Stela in a collaborative role. I generated GWAS data in my core facility that she was responsible for managing and analyzing as part of an international team looking for genetic determinants of low-iron status. I found Stela to be extremely bright, insightful, highly organized, and a pleasure to work with.
