What's the
SUNY Upstate difference?

Magie

Pharmacology student Maggie Pearce is one of many SUNY Upstate students who has landed a prestigious post-doctoral position. After earning her PhD in 2009, Pearce moved to Stanford University.

"I'm ready for my post-doc," she said. "Stanford is an outstanding research institution, and I'm really excited about it."

"The ability to go to conferences is one of the most valuable experiences here," Pearce said. "That's how I landed my post-doc. For Danielle Sliter, another student in our lab, it led to a fruitful collaboration with a lab at Harvard. She'll be publishing the results of that collaboration very soon."
