🚨 We're hiring! 🚨 The Morris Lab Brigham and Women's Hospital & Harvard Medical School is looking for a Research Technician to join our team! 🔬 Focus: Lineage reprogramming & genomic tech development 🧫 Skills: Molecular biology, cell culture, mouse work 📍 Boston, MA tinyurl.com/ydbjrecz


I’m excited to share a new preprint from some of my work in the lab of Todd Macfarlan ! 😄 We dived into young KZFP gene clusters in different mouse strains and species to uncover mechanisms that facilitated their evolution and diversification in mice





Newly elected NAS international member Keiko U. Torii of NaturalSciences @ UT investigates how positional cues influence cell-fate decisions, translating into functional tissue patterning during the development of multicellular organisms. Read more: ow.ly/uZ8y50VFxvE #NASmember


In #GENETICS, Jeff Sekelsky and the team tested whether different pericentromeric regions in #Drosophila respond differently to mutations affecting meiotic crossover suppression. 🪰 Learn more about the role of meiotic machinery in suppressing crossovers: buff.ly/2BY0Yqi


Jeff Sekelsky, Corbin Jones, & I give huge thanks to Frank McNally, Christoph Haag, Andrew Kern, Bengt Hansson, Takashi Akera, & Leah Rosin (Lee-ah Rose-in) for being guests in our #Meiosis, Recombination & Evolution of Sex class UNC_Biology. A pic from our last session with the students


We’re proud to announce Ovo Labs, co-founded by Melina Schuh Lab, Agata Agata Zielinska, and Sasha Oleksandr 'Sasha' Yagensky 🇺🇦. Building on decades of meiosis research, Ovo Labs aims to pioneer novel therapies to overcome the challenges of age-related infertility.




OBの酒井君(Keiichiro Sakai)と細胞休眠に関する総説を書きました。mdpi.com/2218-273X/15/5… Biomolecules誌の特集号「Cellular Quiescence and Dormancy」に掲載していただきました。 オープンアクセスなのでよかったらお読みください。

🎯 We are so thrilled our new paper Nucleic Acids Res is out! IBUB-UB Biochemistry & Molecular Biomedicine UB Fantastic collab with the labs of Gordon Hager NIH & Franck Dequiedt Liège. Huge thanks to Greg Fettweiss, Kaustub Wagh, Diana Stavreva & Alba Jiménez, Andrea Alegre & teams 🎉🥳 academic.oup.com/nar/article/53…



Huge congrats Blake Hernandez ! Great work!!🎊
