Awesome new paper from our lab about how sea anemones control their stinging response! Keiko Weir Lena Giesen Nicholas Bellono

Hey y’all! I got the ok to share an update about Goliath the #BigAssTadpole. Unfortunately it died last year. Researchers at SWRS preserved it to figure out why it stayed a tadpole it’s whole life, it’s sex, and other morphological studies.

Joseph O. Magliozzi, James B. Moseley, and colleagues Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth show that the #FissionYeast cell polarity #kinase Pak1 regulates #cytokinesis bit.ly/2XbTTw2 Moseley Lab

Thank you #choanoflagellates community and beyond for highlighting the newest paper elifesciences.org/articles/56193 from @Choano_Lab and @BioBoothLab. Much gratitude for the foundational work from former @Choano_Lab members @algoriphagus Tera Levin @laura_wetzel and Arielle

The Friday Evening Lectures are the quintessential MBL tradition, given each and every summer since our founding in 1888... and this year, we're going digital. mbl.edu/fel

New paper from the lab about the “taste-touch” sense of the octopus and how it is used to explore the ocean environment!

Excited to share grad student Joe Magliozzi's latest work, now posted on bioRxiv. A fun project that led us in unexpected directions: a PAK kinase regulates P bodies for cell polarity in normal and starved conditions. Enjoy! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We're hiring! Please check out the following TWO open positions: 1) Imaging Scientist 2) Post-doctoral Fellow For more information on both positions, see our website: hcbi.fas.harvard.edu/news/hcbi-hiri…

Postdoc openings! Explore molecular adaptations underlying unique behaviors. Octopus, sharks, jellyfish, photosynthetic animals, walking fish, more. ~Whatever is cool :) Background in cell biology, physiology, biochemistry, structure, other molecular approaches. Email me.

Happy and proud to see that the paper of my brilliant student in Colombia, Laura Laura, is finally out!!! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec… We show phylogenetic tracking of butterfly herbivores for a group of ancient gymnosperms!!
