Raya and Porfirio also invited collaboration from CDS students, and afterwards several people reached out to show interest. Thanks to everyone who joined and contributed to this productive and thought-provoking discussion!
The focus was an exploration of how certain conserved genes influence the development of male-specific traits across different species. Using the nematode C. elegans as a model, the speakers shed light on the intricate processes behind sexual differentiation and its evolution.
Exploring the secrets of sexual dimorphism, CDS recently hosted a captivating research session with @RayaJallad and Porfirio Fernandez (@MoveWithPurpose) from the Fitch Lab in NYU's Department of Biology.

A graduate worker saw a cop in @nyuniversity's Silver building today. When the worker asked why he wasnβt wearing a mask and putting workers lives at risk, the cop replied: βMy body, my choice. Go fuck yourself." Care to explain, NYU? #CopsOffCampus
