First person – Danielle Buglak and Kathleen Holmes

ABSTRACT First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Danielle Buglak and Kathleen Holmes are co-first authors on ‘ The proximal centriole-like structure maintains nucleus–centriole architecture in sperm’, published in JCS. Danielle is a postdoc in the lab of Nasser Rusan at National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, USA, investigating nucleus–centriole attachment in sperm. Kathleen undertook this work while she was a postbaccalaureate fellow in the same laboratory, and is currently a PhD student in the lab of Katherine Baldwin at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA, investigating the development of complex cell morphology.
