This article started as a data analysis project that could be carried out from home during the 2020 COVID lockdowns and has now come to fruition. Thrilled to share the final result 🪰✨
Congrats to all authors! Nicholas C Lammers, @HernanGGarcia , and @mbeisen.
Our article is out in its final form.

D. melanogaster even-skipped enhancers control transcriptional bursting by tuning frequency and amplitude—regardless of varying TF inputs—even when mutated to express in embryonic regions not under selective pressure.
First time I get the cover of a magazine and it's in @Nature! Had this idea to illustrate the diversity captured by the MX Biobank across Mexico and brilliant designer @mauguz33 brought it to life inspired by indigenous Huichol art from near my home town. https://t.co/OHeBg9ZRzu
I also want to thank the reviewers for their thorough assessment of our work, as their comments will greatly improve the revised version (of record) of our manuscript.

Data analysis was done remotely during lockdown in collaboration with Nick Lammers and under mentorship of @HernanGGarcia and @mbeisen
Preprint w/@guberrocal, Nick Lammers and @mbeisen! Despite different transcription factor inputs, the eve enhancers control bursting by upregulating burst frequency and amplitude, even if they're mutated to express in regions not subjected to selection.

@alfonsofierroo Argentina, porque pasé mi juventud escuchando tangos.
Marruecos, porque a todos nos emociona que David venza a Goliath.
Brasil, porque nuestra América, y los demás pues cualquiera, x.
Chance y Holanda primero porque nunca han ganado un mundial.
I am just delighted. Really. What great news to wake up to. Svante’s visionary work really changed our understanding of biology and human history. I also think of this as a recognition of evolutionary genetics as field. Congratulations!
This cute critter from the lakes around Mexico City has the ability to regenerate its brain 🧠
Perhaps, one day humans will learn how to do the same.
(Btw, we are in strong need of an axolotl emoji @Apple)
