Happy #WildlifeWednesday! To commemorate last week’s cesar augusto Meeting, here is a photograph that I took of an Marco Island Eastern Brown Pelican at mid-gulp with a large haul of food! I captured this photograph several years ago at an AGBT meeting.

I am happy to introduce you to the newest member of our family, Bruno Green! Bruno adopted us after being lost in the wild for at least a year. He has since doubled his weight and is now a very healthy young cat. Bruno will soon be traveling to Atlanta to live with my son, Josh!

In 1997 and in the middle of the Human Genome Project, my laboratory discovered the gene that was mutated in a syndromic form of hereditary deafness called Pendred syndrome. This was one of the most gratifying scientific accomplishments of my research career. #ThrowbackThursday

This helpful infographic from National Human Genome Research Institute explains the challenges of sequencing highly repetitive DNA and the technological advances that were needed to generate the first truly complete (gapless) human genome sequence. I encourage you to check it out! genome.gov/about-genomics…

Since I told you last week about our new family cat, Bruno, it only seems fair that I give a shout out to our other cats, Sophie and Starbright! They seem to love sleep and food more than I do…
