Janie Schwab
Adj. Research Faculty and Lab Manager
Janie has been instrumental in different projects in the Lance Lab over the years, in addition to work she does for other groups and her own funded research activities. In 2017 she helped with the CPOC pilot study and built an electrodynamic particle trap. In 2021 she led the monumental task of moving our labs to the new ETEC building. Currently she is working on upgrades to the housing and electrical connections for the FFSSP.
