Moving my lab: end of an era...

Moving out of my old lab yesterday, we find history where a fridge used to be; zoom in to see if you recognize the tubes!

My now go-to genetic knowledgebase alliancegenome.org has a new release, with more harmonized data from worms, flies, mouse, yeast, fish, rats and human, and a first version of AllianceMine. Alliance of Genome Resources

New in this release! We've now got genetic interactions, on Gene Detail pages. You can download the data in this table.

Thrilled to see Scientific American featured our work on how oyster mushroom 🍄 poisons nematodes. IMB Academia Sinica @SinicaFans EMBO YIP EMBO

In honor of the #Olympics We present highspeed videos of roundworms taking off on their Olympic quality jumps to ten times their height! Adler Dillman

Worms jumping faster than muscle contraction! ⁦microPublication⁩ ⁦Michael Eisen⁩

The Alliance is where I start when I am curious about any gene, human or from an intensively studied research organism. It just keeps getting better thanks to the dedicated developers and biocurators!

Along with Heidi Goodrich-Blair and Adler Dillman, we are studying an awesome worm, the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema hermaphroditum. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out our new work (w/ wormraiser and Mike O'Donnell ) in JACS! Specific assembly of modular glucosides (MOGLs) via carboxylesterase CEST-1.2 regulates starvation survival in C. elegans pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

I really miss traveling to give seminars: now, the night before before I give a zoom talk, I sit in a chair in my basement for 4.5 hours with my laptop and some weak coffee | tea and edit my talk. Then I FaceTime with my family from the guest bedroom.

Nice photo! My new lab is on the top floor, left wing shared with David Prober’s lab.

Without NIH support ALL model organism databases-a crucial component of biomedical research-are threatened. Make your voice heard: surveymonkey.com/r/5NGLNNJ. Background info American Society for Cell Biology Genetics Society of America :ascb.org/wp-content/upl…

Fruit of a lovely collaboration with Vivek Venkatachalam ‘s lab finds an interneuron downstream of pheromone sensation in the worm’s diapause vs reproductive decision. authors.elsevier.com/a/1exmg3QW8R%7…

Really cool: a high school student sequenced the first angelfish genome! ….and published it in microPublication Biology!@micropub7n newscientist.com/article/234351…

Excited to share a view and conceptual framework for achievable time-resolved autonomous adaptive data acquisition for hyperspectral imaging of living biological systems. Huge thanks to my co-authors (Hari, Derek, Berkeley IR Structural Biology Imaging Program, wormraiser ) and to Applied Physics Reviews! 🙏

The worms are in TOUCH with their feelings; it’s not just posture-ing!
