New preprint: Variable environments select for short lifespan bit.ly/315gT1n by Martin Lind Irja Ratikainen – theoretical model and experimental evolution agree. 5 different temperature regimes (mostly warming), 30 pops, 30 gens – fast temp cycles select for short lifespan.

Just in time for the #IWD2020 here my new blog "Why free childcare and shared parental leave are not sufficient to reduce male bias in STEM": shorturl.at/ceoC9 And join us today at 11 am in the BIO Atrium to celebrate with coffee and cake!

Thank you Stephanie Kath-Schorr for your pledge and for tagging me in. While I fully support the good intentions of this pledge, I also strongly believe we need to do much more than chain tweets or showcasing the diversity of our labs. We need action because #BlackLivesMatter ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

Paper Alert! Our lab’s first paper is now out bioRxiv, led by the amazing NRPDTP student Aykut Shen. We show that U6 snRNA m6A modification by METT-10 is required for efficient and accurate cis- and trans-splicing of C. elegans mRNAs. 1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Please spread the word for these amazing PhD positions in beautiful and affordable city of Norwich!

Last 5 five days to apply for these PhD projects spanning RNA biology and vitamin B12 in C. elegans! Yiliang Ding The Taylor Lab Martin Warren Quadram Institute John Innes Centre @biouea Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research NRPDTP #UKRIFLF
