There are over 10,000 species of reptile but no reports of gene editing in any of these species - until now! @arasys2 has successfully made gene knockouts in the brown anole lizard, Anolis sagrei! Check out our preprint: https://t.co/XxDhTYqxO8
Also, our department @uga_genetics is searching for a TT AP in Human Genetics. It is a broad search in any research direction. Review of applications will begin on 11/20/2024. If you want to chat about this opportunity or our department, reach out to me #ASHG24@GeneticsSociety
I am very excited to share the first preprint from my postdoc with @UCSDCooperLab ! Read along to learn about tails and vertebral proportion 🧵 https://t.co/HxgjmGIqym
Job Alert. We have 6-year funded positions for a postdoc and bioinformatician to join our @ERC_Research#BATPROTECT project. Topics include genome assembly, annotation, comparative genomics & transcriptomics and more. Pls RT. https://t.co/bfYjajDPmt
Absolutely in love with this lyrically thoughtful piece from @UCSDCooperLab. I, for one, will happily say yes to her invitation to “join me in reading more books.” How else to embrace the marvelous complexity of life around us? Well done, Kim! https://t.co/W6DszFqBzL
So proud of my lab for our latest work out today in @Naturepub. We took advantage of transposable elements and CRISPR to perform targeted insertion of cargo DNA in the Arabidopsis and soy genomes. Led by @mcliupeng. https://t.co/wSvr1uuEbF. 🧵
Interested in early #embryogenesis?
Do you like reptiles?
We have a position open for a https://t.co/k7Do2g46VW. student to investigate early development in the brown anole.
We are searching for a new colleague! The ideal candidate will establish an active and independent research program grounded in the genetic study of human populations related to human biology, development, evolution, and/or disease.

Our deep dive into cis-regulatory diversity using single-cell genomics across maize germplasm reveals how genetic variants reshape chromatin accessibility, transcription factor binding, chromatin interactions and much more. Led by
@Marand_Lab!

"Middle-class science" – a good term for something that is fading. The phrase was used by David Glanzman (UCLA, @dglanzman) at a conference this year.
Middle-class science is work on a medium-sized, single-lab scale – not a huge collaboration, not a shoestring operation... 1/
We're hiring!

@UMCDB We are excited to hire another faculty, thus building on a streak of having hire seven phenomenal colleagues in the last seven year. We are specifically looking for a developmental biologist, and building up the diversity of expertise and experiences @UMCDB. Please RT!
@AxelVisel and @LenPennacchio just released a beta update of the iconic VISTA Enhancer Browser which now includes support for developmental stages and different enhancer alleles: https://t.co/vjfnC6ZOnR
How do enhancers work over distances that sometimes exceed megabases? Excited to share our work led by @gracecbower where we uncover a unique sequence signature globally associated with long-range enhancer-promoter interactions in developing limb buds: https://t.co/n0p7BdxSdq 1/
Super stoked about this symposium next month at @SSAR2024! Thanks again to @ssarherps for sponsoring, my co-organizers (@danpaluh, @holy_anole, @MollyCWomack), and all of the speakers! This is going to be awesome.
