It is my absolute pleasure to share my incredible postdoc Dawei's @amaizeingcorn manuscript on epigenetics and aging in Arabidopsis. It is the work I am most proud of thus far in my career, and every figure has a breakthrough that we are excited about

Super exciting to see what the future holds for nanopore beyond DNA and RNA sequencing https://t.co/7kCQlfhh0g

This paper led by Dr. Atsushi Shimada is out @NaturePlants! Centromere function can be dependent on a few TEs, and in RNAi mutants, small RNAs targetting these TEs are enough to reestablish normal chromosome segregation! Crazy! https://t.co/8RTJ28FCHo

So great to see this paper out in @Nature. Beautiful molecular characterization of a new toxin-antidote drive system in maize, led by Ben berube, with assistance from Martienssen lab @antnerves @CrisAlves_bio @BioJlynn and collaborators @arminscheben @jrossibarra Jerry Kermicle

A hallmark of sex is each parent transmits half of their genome through a recombined egg or sperm. What if this was not the case? Check our new paper @NatureGenet where we break this rule via diploid clonal gametes and develop polyploid genome design

The MaizeCODE paper is on BioRXiv! New insights on enhancers in plants and a lot of data for every maize (epi)geneticist to play with, including on teosinte, the ancestor of maize. A big team effort, very grateful to everyone involved!

First major work fully made in the laboratory is out in @biorxivpreprint: https://t.co/qAkBX3VZg1. We found that DNA methylation allows recurrent endogenization of giant virus in a protist🦠 closely related to animals, large scale virus and eukaryotic host genomic mixture.🧵 1/10

[Alex Cantó-Pastor @acantopastor]

Really thankful to start the year in such a great way: Our paper is out today! 🥳 Congrats to all the authors for their hard work, and thanks to the editors & reviewers for their insight on how to improve it! 🧵1/3 https://t.co/T4dteQNwmJ

[Mitch Guttman @mitchguttman]

Gene expression involves thousands of proteins that bind DNA, yet comprehensively mapping these is challenging. We developed ChIP-DIP – a method for simultaneous, genome-wide mapping of hundreds of DNA-protein interactions in a single experiment. https://t.co/NEH92mQTGs

[Charlie Underwood @charliesousbois]

Join our department! Please share to potential candidates

[Jonathan Cahn @jon_cahn]

My PhD research on Arabidopsis mC readers is finally out in @biorxivpreprint. It took a long time, a lot of work, and there are still many open questions, but thanks to @JamesPBLloyd @ry_lister and great collaborators it's out there!

It is out in @NewPhyt! Happy to share my review on the genetics of paralog compensation to overcome the redundancy barrier in functional studies. https://t.co/4LcpHof8g3

What causes cancer? Medical science has been grappling with this for centuries. Today, thanks to a genome-editing technique invented at CSHL, cancer research could come full circle, leading to better outcomes for cancer patients.
