When @ColognaLab told me about the octopus self-destruct system, my brain nearly fell out of my head. @ZYanWang and colleagues identify steroid hormones involved in mediating this terrifying "life transition." https://t.co/fCKt9fP2NP
Interested in neuronal activity dependent gene regulation, evolution and neurological disease? Join us for our #neurogenomics seminar with Gabriella Boulting (@DiscoverURBrain) from @UMassChan next Tuesday, 3pm UK time. DM/email for zoom link.
Attending CSHL Genome Informatics meeting #gi2021 ! Getting psyched with awesome opening talk on completing the human genome sequence by Adam Phillippy @aphillippy
The #T2T Consortium is excited to release a series of preprints in the coming weeks that describe the assembly and analysis of the first truly complete human genome! 🎉 I will append the papers as they appear to this 🧵, and you can find all our data here: https://t.co/YIlCAHUAxl
Ever wonder what makes the human brain different from that of other animals?
The Boulting Lab @DiscoverURBrain, Department of Neurobiology @UMassChan is searching for enthusiastic and creative full-time team members:

Thanks to the whole team and especially @blsabatini to make such a thorough and novel study possible! DM me if you're interested in studying neuropeptides in Europe ;-)
Vitamin B12 has the most complex structure of all vitamins. It was elucidated by Nobel Prize laureate and crystallography pioneer Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin.
What discovery will lead to this year's Nobel Prizes?

New work from our lab showing that use of small molecule inhibitor can change mutational outcomes of both SpCas9-NG and KKH-SaCas9 toward 1-bp insertions.

Never tried recruiting by tweet . Having had the amazing @LeenaAIbrahim leave the Fishell lab is recruiting an experienced physiologist. Modeling and biophysics would be a plus! Come help figure out what genetics and development can teach us about cortical interneurons!
For the past 5 years @HHMIJanelia, my lab has worked on tools to image synaptic activity. 2021 might be the year it really comes together. Announcement 1: Our improved iGluSnFRs are great! These are minis /w TTX. Very proud of @abhi_aggarwal and team. We're sharing reagents!
Finally out in @NatureNeuro!
Our latest on neuronal activity-dependent gene expression and chromatin dynamics of human GABAergic neurons: https://t.co/AcJ53Jl6nL
Many thanks to a fantastic team of colleagues and collaborators!
Looking for something to read during the holiday-break? Check out our latest review if you are into cortical interneurons, plasticity and #MolSysNeurosci. Thanks to @GordFishell, Michela Fagiolini and members of @Spiegel_Lab for their comments on the ms! https://t.co/BaKRlb1B3P
I am retweeting now because it links to the explanation of the findings in the just-published

Thirteen months later, with lots of rewrites and a few new experiments, the conclusions are the same so please read below.
