#Drosophila Committee of an undergrad in my former grad student's lab (all undergrad) asked her these questions but she hasn't found answers. Any help? >What % of an adult fly's cells are germline? >What % of cells in head are neuronal? >What % of cells are G0 vs cycling?

I’m so excited to announce that the Rosin lab will be opening @ NICHD this Fall! We will study genome dynamics in the germline and soma using a variety of model systems and a combination of imaging and genomics approaches. Now recruiting highly motivated postdocs and postbacs!

Had a great visit with #meiosis labs Max Perutz Labs Vienna at Univ. Vienna (Joao Matos, Peter Schlögelhofer The Schlögelhofer Lab, Verena Jantsch, Franz Klein) and others. Then a gorgeous train trip to Zürich for an awesome visit to ETH Zurich Inst of Biochemistry thanks to Madhav Jagannathan.

Wonderful UNC_Biology graduation ceremony yesterday. Students that received awards were asked to name their science hero. We had Darwin, McClintock, Sekelsky, Newton…what? How did Newton get on that list???

Congratulations to our three undergraduate researchers that graduated with Honor in Biology. Emerson & Reese are off to graduate school, while Gray goes into the real world.
