@ophirshalem @MolecularCell @stephsansbury @YSereb Congrats Ophir!

[Ophir Shalem @ophirshalem]

Check out our paper, now extensively revised and published in @MolecularCell! This has been a real tour de force led by @stephsansbury and @YSereb and we are very excited about the findings and future potential of this approach

עמיתנו פרופ׳ בני (בן ציון) שילה נפטר הבוקר @WeizmannScience. בני פעל בחזית המדע העולמי בחקר גנטיקה מולקולרית והתפתחותית. בין השאר זכה בפרס א.מ.ת. בתחום הגנטיקה בשנת 2013. הוא היה גם מסביר נהדר של מדע, מורה בחסד - וצלם אמן עם עין חדה ונפש רגישה. בני, תחסר לנו מאוד. יהי זיכרו ברוך.

With @rinklab we looked into details of the stem cell system of catenulids. Surprisingly, it was very different from the canonical neoblast-based systems of other flatworms. What does it tell about the evolution of stem cells and regeneration? Check here:

Any slug enthusiasts among my followers? Please RT. We develop a slug laboratory model from Deroceras laeve (genomes, CRISPRs, small RNAs ...) and I am opening a PhD position on "piRNA and genome defense in gastropods". Info & online application here:

1/3 🚨 new preprint from our lab!
For many years, it was unclear if and how RNAi contributes to antiviral immunity in Cnidaria. Sure, it is a key component in flies and nematodes, but these are protostomes. @AdmoniYael finally tested this with help from 🧵

Hello everybody :)

I'm happy to share with you this interesting review, written in our lab -

High-throughput detection of RNA modifications at single base resolution
https://t.co/XXYEaKzJrU

Enjoy learning how to detect some RNA modifications.
