This study identifies regulatory loci underlying gene expression variation in C. elegans and demonstrates how this variation could impact other complex traits. nature.com/articles/s4146… Erik Andersen

Avery Davis Bell from Georgia Tech is the last speaker this afternoon before coffee break. She is sharing her findings on genomic distances and gene expression divergence in nematodes. #evoworm2022

Fantastic talk by Avery Davis Bell, PhD

My penultimate PhD paper is out in eLife - the journal! We used MIP-seq to determine relative starvation resistance and sensitivity among a pool of 100 wild C. elegans strains, then used this data to identify several QTL... (1/5) elifesciences.org/articles/80204

Join our Faculty! We are seeking outstanding scholars studying the mechanisms that drive fundamental processes in biology using quantitative methods. Northwestern’s stunning lakefront campus and Chicagoland are awesome places to live and do science! careers.cell.com/job/10113/tenu…

My department is hiring! We are searching in the area of quantitative biology (broadly defined), but we invite anyone who would complement the existing strengths of our multidisciplinary department to apply. Great location near Chicago - please RT! careers.cell.com/job/10113/tenu…

#hiring a molecular biologist research associate. Must have #PhD. Experience with #yeast is preferred. Email me with your CV and let’s talk! Peeps- please re-tweet- thanks!
