Very nice work on imprinting by Sarah N. Anderson When you develop new approaches that shine light in the corners you were ignoring sometimes you find some really cool things.

Really nice work led by Jaclyn Noshay that finds evidence for a subset of TEs that influence regulation of nearby genes. Made possible by great collaborations with Bob Schmitz Candice Hirsch and many others!

I should have included the link - old person twitter issues... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our latest: we use DNA methylation profiles to distill large genomes down to a small fraction of unmethylated regions (UMRs) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

This is a nice study led by Zhikai Liang that shows the variability of TE responses to abiotic stresses in different maize inbreds. Both genetics and epigenetics are important factors. Couldn't have happened without Sarah N. Anderson Peter Crisp Jaclyn Noshay @taraenders

This was a fun project led by Peng Zhou which taught me that many of my conceptions about cis-regulatory elements are flawed. Peng is a fantastic science, he'll be sorely missed at MN as he begins a new position.

Excited to share Jaclyn Noshay's last thesis chapter research. Monitoring accessible chromatin and DNA methylation in four maize genomes. Reveals that a large amount of variable methylation is due to shifting boundaries at the edge of methylated domains

Why do the same gene in different varieties respond differentially under the environmental stimuli? We seek to answer the question using both population transcriptomics and chromatin signatures.

After ~20 years at the UMN today was my last day . I have been so lucky to work with wonderful people in my group and to have a fantastic set of collaborators. A huge thank you to all of my colleagues, collaborators and friends. Excited for a new journey Bayer | Crop Science

🚨 We've got a new preprint out 🚨 - We developed a series of logical frameworks for analyzing how transposable element content contributes to structural variation (SV) within maize 🌽🧬🌽. How'd we do this + what did we find?? - 1/11

Cool opportunity to work on developing applications of single-cell technologies for crop improvement on a fantastic team led by Rebecca Lowdon jobs.bayer.com/job/Chesterfie…
