BurgessLab

The Burgess lab at UC Davis is interested in the dynamic chromosome events of meiosis. We use budding yeast and zebrafish as model genetic organisms

[Genetics Society of America @GeneticsGSA]

TOMORROW, 1pm EDT📣 Ofer Rog of @UoUBiology will cover 2 unpublished stories from his lab on unexpected de-mixing of sister chromatids during meiotic prophase & a 🆕 genomic technique to characterize large-scale chromatin organization. Register: https://t.co/f4Cp1Vdtfc @TheRogLab

[BurgessLab @BurgessLab]

We are pleased to report the publication of our review on the formation and resolution of meiotic chromosome entanglements and interlocks. It was a pleasure to work with Ofer Rog @TheRogLab and Iván Olaya @meiocyte_Ivan on this project.

[Fred Chedin @flchedin]

Years in the making, the new Briggs research space is open for business! Many thanks to all those who carried the project over the years including @jodi_nunnari ! And thanks @Chancellor_May for a fun visit! @ucdavisbiology

Congratulations to former Burgess lab BioGAP student Aliyah Penn for her admissions to Johns Hopkins PhD program AND an NSF GRSF Fellowship!

[Dr. Carole Hom @CaroleHom]

Carla is in @Juliano_Lab for a postbacc with PREP@UCD and Aliyah worked with @smburgessucd a few summers ago. We are so proud of them!

[Dr. Carole Hom @CaroleHom]

Congratulations to all the student presenters and their mentors! A huge thank you to Dean Winey, faculty, and staff of @ucdavisbiology for putting this together. Wonderful energy in the room. #CBSDeansCircleURC

[BurgessLab @BurgessLab]

Congratulations to our lab undergrads Alex and Jackie who presented their posters at @ucdavisbiology research conference

[Dan Starr @DanStarrUCDavis]

@BurgessLab @CahoonCori @brunobeltran0 @Stanford @tacnewman @DanielElnatan Celebration time!

[BurgessLab @BurgessLab]

Ok, this happened literally 10 minutes after the PNAS paper was published! The latest latest from from our lab in Genetics describes synergistic roles between the nuclear pore complex and the LINC complex in meiosis.

[BurgessLab @BurgessLab]

Just hit the "final submit" button for two papers today. Both represent many years of work and several rounds of review. What are the chances of that? Stay tuned for the announcements...Thank you to all Burgess Lab members for the hard work.

[BurgessLab @BurgessLab]

Walter Leal cares deeply about ⁦⁦@ucdavis⁩ and is a tireless champion of faculty, especially by promoting junior faculty. We are lucky to have him here! https://t.co/o6VigN0EKQ

@YanivElkouby Congratulations on this beautiful work!

[Soni Lacefield @LacefieldLab]

Congrats to Dr. Janardan Gavade, the newest PhD from the Lacefield Lab! He gave an awesome talk today!

[Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center @MSKCancerCenter]

Using a strain of mutant mice, Sloan Kettering Institute researchers discovered new info about how genetic mutations occur during meiosis. This could help them understand more about how miscarriages and genetic diseases occur. @Spo11Rulz @CellPressNews
