A study identifies 5 genetic markers near the EGLN1 gene that are associated with increased aerobic capacity at altitude. Researchers suggest the markers represent evidence of natural selection in high-altitude populations. In PNAS: https://t.co/c5UJLdQDqF

Happy 40th birthday to the Western Blot! At the JBC, our data integrity team performs due diligence to ensure that that duplicated or manipulated blots (we publish so many blots, you guys) don't wind up in publication

The University will celebrate donors gifts with Tag Day, Nov. 18. The goal is to show appreciation to those who have given back to the University. Tag Day will feature a component where students have the chance to win prizes. Details on the contest will be announced soon.
My lab is looking for PhD students interested in using genomics approaches to study the evolution of behavior. We are using comparative, population and functional genomics to learn how behavior evolves.
@CornellNBB is a great place to study behavior. Come join us!
Given that DDR2 has a crucial role in the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and cancer progression, targeting the HSP47–DDR2 interaction might be a potential strategy for inhibiting DDR2-dependent cancer progression.
