New paper from the Rosin lab in collaboration with the Hawley lab 🎉

Spearheaded by postdoc Leif Benner @BennerLeif and wonderful Hawley lab members - We use imaging and RNA-seq to better understand apyrene meiosis in silkworms.

[Butterfly Conservation 🦋 @savebutterflies]

It's May, which means more brilliant butterflies and moths to look out for! 🌷🦋

Butterflies need wilder parks and gardens. Will you promise to let your lawn grow long for butterflies this summer?

Pledge to grow not mow 👉 https://t.co/2cU0Y93HHP

Thrilled to share our latest preprint on satellite DNA in Bombyx mori and its close relative B. mandarina! 🧬😃

Our revised manuscript explains how Guo et al. concluded PRC2 is not an RNA binding protein. They retained unmappable reads, selectively removed read duplicates from the mappable fraction, and applied an arbitrary cutoff for PRC2 enrichment in RNA.

Cohesin is essential for maintaining structural loops but less so for regulatory loops and transcription. Is cohesin actually required for the establishment of loops and transcriptional activation?🧵https://t.co/HuJGghT0ZQ

[FoxLabNC @FoxLabNC]

New lab preprint! We did a giant genetic screen for factors that help cells to divide into more than 2 (as can occur in cancer). Our top hit is an unnamed fly gene that has a human counterpart which is targeted by an FDA-approved drug for epilepsy. https://t.co/pSt0ib7HUj

People need to know that NIH grants are the backbone of American biology and thus of our biotech industry. I took a moment away from doing science to talk about how science gets done with @ojaldridge with @KUTNews about recent IDC rate cuts.

My lab at Brown University is hiring a postdoctoral fellow! We develop single-molecule imaging technologies to dissect the spatial regulation of gene expression. For more information about my lab, visit https://t.co/iBjwFlNjvd Please help spread the word! #RNA #imaging

[Genetics Society of America @GeneticsGSA]

We are deeply saddened by the loss of an esteemed colleague, friend, mentor & a pioneer in Drosophila & meiosis research.

R. Scott Hawley was a dedicated supporter of GSA & a champion of genetics.
