@DALevering 1) gene therapy (yes, very general)
2) I didn’t do undergrad research. It’s a long story
3) How interploidy crosses affect gene expression in Maize Endosperms. Followed by post-doc research in seed imprinting
4) Gene Editing for crop trait development (for Bayer Crop Science)
Gene editing short term internships were posted. These are a great opportunity for graduate students to come in, learn some great science, get industry experience, and expand your professional network.

Fantastic talk by Thelma Madzima at #PlantBio2023. She referred to a paper she published with Gustavo Macintosh, "Equity, diversity, and inclusion efforts in professional societies: intention versus reaction" 👍👍 https://t.co/cNx4OMg2bg
Many of the plant science folks I followed has left this platform, so it's not nearly as fun as it used to be. Can we get a general consensus on where we are all moving too? Mastadon? Threads? Maybe I should just sign up for all the new ones and just see what happens 😀
@hendersi Looks like you’ve already got some great answers. I had a similar problem once. The final destination for my gene was for plant expression, so I added an intron. Solved my e.coli problem! This might not be your solution, but I want I share anyway.
@ChenxinLi2 I get the feeling, at least a part of what they are looking for is what your first grant proposal is going to be, so they judge it’s chances on funding. I’m sure there’s more to it than that, but I think it’s part of it.
@GenomeLarry It's been great getting to know you and learn from you! It's sad seeing you go, but I'm also excited for you as well. I wish you much luck and enjoyment in your next adventure!
