COFFEE doesn't help ☕ Read about work from high school students supported & mentored by @DunhamLab that identified multiple evolved yeast populations with mutations in multidrug resistance family and mTOR pathway genes contributing to #caffeine tolerance: https://t.co/B2vrFc1hh0

[Ran Blekhman @blekhman]

Latest from our lab, on human cytomegalovirus in breast milk and its impact on the infant gut microbiome

Work by @kelsey_EJ, excellent collab with @DemerathE, @frankwalbert, @mschleiss, & Cheryl Gale

#TAGC24 Variety Show

[Randi A, PhD @Randi_R_A]

Quite possibly my favorite session at #TAGC24!! Thank you to @iam_shef for organizing and the interviewers and interviewees for such a great session!

[Shefali @iam_shef]

Beyond thrilled to be organizing "Behind the science stories" workshop at #TAGC24 @GeneticsGSA ! Get ready to peel back the curtains on innovations from @WolfnerLab @ApplewhiteDerek @Planaria1 @SMBurgessLab @NeedhiBhalla labs.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 to @CassandraBuzby for her talk on epistasis and copper sulfate resistance using chromosome fixation and BSA! #TAGC24

[Randi A, PhD @Randi_R_A]

One reason why conferences are so cool: Getting to hear the person whose lab developed the tool I am using in my PhD work talk about it. #TAGC24 Shout out to Michael Knop and Tandem Fluorescent protein Timers! 🔴🟢🧬

[Randi A, PhD @Randi_R_A]

Peep this preview of GxE effects on protein degradation that I’ll be talking about at my poster later today at #TAGC24! Please come to 959T to hear more! Tonight, March 7, ~7:30 pm (after my professional headshot slot lol). PS. I am actively searching for a postdoc!

[Randi A, PhD @Randi_R_A]

So excited to be at #TAGC24! Already reunited with conference friends; and of course, had to do my nails with a genetics theme 🧬

[Randi A, PhD @Randi_R_A]

@KrisnaVanDyke @frankwalbert Was a great celebration that followed a wonderful presentation! 🎉

[Samantha Graham @samanthapgraham]

New preprint🧵! We're excited to share the 1st release of the Human Microbiome Compendium, a dataset of publicly available 16S sequencing data from 168,000 human gut microbiome samples, processed using a single pipeline and integrated into one big table. https://t.co/poRVuRXt1L

[Kelsey Johnson @kelsey_EJ]

We just posted a new preprint investigating the impact of cytomegalovirus (CMV) on human milk composition and full-term infant development! (https://t.co/cUtlWv9dP0, thread below):

[Randi A, PhD @Randi_R_A]

So proud of @SolChoi330 and @jsharon_18 and many other friends who walked today to celebrate their graduation! Can’t wait to see what amazing work you do next! 💕

Great pic of @samanthapgraham and me on a “Science Walk” at @CSHL during #BoG23 😆🧬

My tandem fluorescent protein timer-themed nails for #BoG23! They represent a slowly maturing mCherry fused to a quickly maturing sfGFP. See https://t.co/PBjUEGieML from the Knop lab to learn more about tFTs - reporters for protein degradation!
