@BlockInTheBack @MadS100tist @kaufman_lab @chrmosimann We and then @WashbourneLab made a bunch of pA-less 3E constructs. Set up for a lentiviral vector. Many have convenient cloning sites.

@jraslab @CabernardLab @___SDB___ Thanks @jraslab, @___SDB___ , and my most excellent partner @CabernardLab. Thanks to all #nwdb2021 participants for embracing the virtual meeting experiment to great results!

The latest @libudalab paper is online in @CurrentBiology! We develop and use an assay to temporally monitor repair of single DSB w/ the sister chromatid or same DNA molecule, and assess its conversion tracks during specific stages of meiosis in C. elegans. https://t.co/C1dIP11Kg2

Congrats Amy! Thanks for amplifying our work and the essential value of basic research to the biotech pipeline.

[Amy Robbins @ZfishAmy]

Whoa, I won the pitch contest AND audience favorite award for #OregonBio2020 in Basic Research! It feels really good to take a risk and have it pay off. And always great to share @StankLab fin regen work with the wider community. The biotech world is suddenly less intimidating!

[Amy Robbins @ZfishAmy]

I'm trying something new and giving a 3 min pitch at #OregonBio2020 Oregon Bioscience Association conference Nov 17-19. It's a great opportunity to make my fin regeneration research broadly accessible. Tune in to hear about great work happening in our local biotech community!

[Kryn Stankunas @StankLab]

@McKnightLab_UO was an inspiring champion of students overcoming challenges. Please join us in further imprinting Jeff's legacy.

[Kryn Stankunas @StankLab]

Enduring wisdom from Jeff, a true role model for all, for now and forever.

[McKnight Lab @McKnightLab_UO]

This all brings me back to my earlier post. Life is short - enjoy your good days. Hug your family. Don't waste time on things that don't interest you. Love each other. Forgive each other. Find balance in your life and maintain it.

[Kryn Stankunas @StankLab]

Long-awaited structure of active Arp2/3 complex from UO/IMB colleague @BradNolen2 & collaborators. Key knowledge for “full scale” understanding of cytoskeletal dynamics in developmental and other contexts.

[Kryn Stankunas @StankLab]

12/12 Congrats to the amazing first author team @JoshuaBraunste3 and @ZfishAmy. Visit Amy’s poster #251 (B1) at #2020SDB!

1/ Our new preprint describes how #zebrafish fins develop their characteristic branched bony ray skeletons by a unique Shh/Smo-dependent branching morphogenesis mechanism shared with regenerating fins. https://t.co/Pjrao6CL6G

[Kryn Stankunas @StankLab]

11/ It’s curious that Shh/Smo promotes skeletal patterning in fins and tetrapod limbs but by ostensibly distinct mechanisms. Could basal mechanistic similarities endure?
