This week was the annual The Jackson Laboratory employee picnic! 🍂🎃 Together, with the Dumont Laboratory we took down the Jennifer Trowbridge in a friendly game of tug of war! 💪

🧠🧬 Did you know The Jackson Laboratory has Ph.D. programs in Mammalian Genetics and Neuroscience via a partnership with Tufts University? Learn more about the @TuftsGSBS programs: jax.org/education-and-… #GradSchool #Neuroscience #Genetics

#SACNAS #SACNAS22 Congratulations to our amazing PostBac Kimberly Heath who earned an Outstanding Award for Best Research Presentation. Way to go Kim! The Jackson Laboratory JAX Genomic Education

Our lab is hiring! We're looking for a research assistant interested in studying how genetic variation impacts phenotypic variation through changes in the epigenome. If you're interested, apply through the link! The Jackson Laboratory shorturl.at/chjQR

Great group at The Jackson Laboratory hiring an RA!

Congratualtions Alexis Garretson!

🏆🏆

Yesterday our very first graduate student successfully defended her thesis. Congratulations Dr. Arora 🥂🎓(@UmaArora16) you have been a great scientist, mentor and friend to everybody in the lab. Your positive attitude and light will be missed.

Go check out our latest paper, led by postdoc Lydia Wooldridge where she looked at population-level LD, she generated recombination maps for 9 populations of wild house mice. Congratulations!! The Jackson Laboratory JAX Genomic Education

I am happy to share the latest project from the Dumont Laboratory lead by the talented postdoc Lydia Wooldridge published in Molecular Biology and Evolution. JAX Genomic Education The Jackson Laboratory

The Dumont lab is proud to share that our talented postbacc Kimberly Heath-Borrero will be pursuing an MD/PhD with a track in Cell and Cancer Biology at The University of Toledo. We are excited for what is to come, and we will miss Kim in the lab. JAX Genomic Education The Jackson Laboratory

Congratulations to the very talented Alexis Garretson for earning the Top Oral Presentation - Travel Award at the 7th Annual JAX Scientific Symposium last week. 👏👏👏👏🎊🎉 The Jackson Laboratory JAX Genomic Education

Uma Arora, a TuftsGSBS/The Jackson Laboratory Ph.D. graduate ('23) who worked in the Dumont Laboratory, shares lessons learned and future plans in a recent spotlight profile. Uma is now a postdoctoral fellow in the Sankaran lab (Vijay Sankaran) at the Broad Institute. 👏 now.tufts.edu/2023/05/01/uma…

Associate Professor Beth Dumont (Dumont Laboratory) is a leader in the field of population genetics and a mentor for students each summer. Her experience bridges the Laboratory's past & present, highlighting what makes JAX so unique in the research world: jax.org/news-and-insig…
