"One email at a time, one informational interview after another, I became comfortable, confident, and strategic in building my network of mentors."
One mentor isn’t enough, writes @DrErikaMoore in this #ScienceWorkingLife essay from 2021. https://t.co/1IN0ukCkWg #ScienceMagArchives
Congratulations to the #NIH_IRP's Drs. Stephen J. Chanock (@theNCI), Lindsey A. Criswell (@genome_gov and @NIH_NIAMS), Niki Moutsopoulos (@NIDCR), Avindra Nath (@NIH_NINDS), and Nina Schor on their election to @theNAMedicine! Learn more about the electees: https://t.co/AXE1F20TDl.
When is a species not a species... or when is a species actually more than one species? A nice study led by Remi Ketchum in our collaborator Joe Ryan's lab at the Whitney Labs answers that question with regards to species boundaries in Mnemiopsis.

BREAKING NEWS
The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.
Our paper providing the first comprehensive analysis of the #Hydractinia genome is out in @genomeresearch! Our orthology analyses have revealed that there is shared ancestry with other animals in the form of a conserved toolkit for regeneration.

Thanks @NHGRI_Director for the outstanding research environment and support. Colleagues like you were key at every step to bring genomics to new areas of biomedical science 🙏
A great study on the evolution of bioluminescence by @quattrinia and @caseywdunn’s groups featured in this morning’s New York Times. A nice read while enjoying your morning coffee!

Our latest paper in @GenomeBiolEvol describes the identification of 1000s of CNEs in 51 #genomes, providing evidence that transposable elements are a major source of CNEs that may play a critical role in the evolution of regulatory potential. Check it out! https://t.co/MwFn9VFpyy
#Ctenophores, meet #AlphaFold... using NIH's Biowulf supercomputing resource, we've just published a paper in Proteomics describing our proteome-scale structure predictions for #Mnemiopsis: 15,333 structures in 58,000 GPU hr. https://t.co/D1qBpzwYPr @nih_hpc@WileyAnalytical
NHGRI’s Center for Genomics and Data Science Research (CGDSR) is seeking tenure-track or tenure-eligible investigators to join our program! Learn more and apply by January 1: https://t.co/aMAZWJy0ZR.
A very promising study providing insights on disease resistance in #corals that are relevant to coral restoration efforts #Acropora

@genome_gov What? No love for invertebrates today? You can go all the way back to the non-bilaterians and find a surprising number of human disease gene homologs despite their evolutionary distance for humans – so there's a lot to be learned about gene function from non-vertebrates as well!
A really nice and accessible summary by @isabellaclsci in @preLights of what our #Hydractinia genome sequencing and analysis efforts have uncovered - especially that Hydractinia uses a shared gene toolkit found in almost all animals. Check it out!
