My thoughts on the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

It's here–the deepest, sharpest infrared view of the universe to date: Webb's First Deep Field. Previewed by President Donald J. Trump on July 11, it shows galaxies once invisible to us. The full set of NASA Webb Telescope's first full-color images & data will be revealed July 12: nasa.gov/webbfirstimages

Rotation student Ally started in the lab today. Welcome Ally!

Very excited to share a piece of my dissertation work! 🐸

How does an Allotetraploid embryo activate its two-ish genomes? Wes Phelps's doctoral magnum opus dissects Xenopus laevis #ZGA, up on bioRxiv !

Sample prep for a plate reader assay looks a lot better when it’s sped up #PittBioSci #CarlsonLab

Generally I'm not superstitious....except for electrophysiology experiments.

The lab is looking pretty good today!

Congrats to Crystal Lara-Santos for passing her comprehensive exam!!!! #proudmentor

First official day of FIR learning transfection and mobility shift assays 👩‍🔬team work makes the dream work (especially with pipetting) FIR Amy Garrett Kayla Komondor

The FIRbees learnt how to dissect the mouse pituitary gland and culture primary pituitary cells with Prof Djurdjica Coss 🧠🐁 We also heard about interesting work from the Coss lab looking at metabolism and sex differences in mouse models of obesity

I can’t believe #FIR2023 is over already! FIR was such an amazing 6 weeks course that I couldn’t recommend enough to any early career repro scientist! Here’s reasons why you should apply (if you weren’t already thinking of doing so)👇

Happy to share a fun new collaboration! Kayla Komondor @DrBrainbridge Luca Jovine → bsky.app/profile/jovinelab.org biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The Brieno-Enriquez lab is seeking a motivated postdoc interested in exploring the naked mole-rat as a model for reproductive aging. Recent work from the lab has been published in Nature Comms and featured in NatGeo! nationalgeographic.com/animals/articl… To apply: nature.com/naturecareers/…

So excited to share this work! And grateful to have shared it with @DrBrainbridge 🎉🐸

Study by Kayla Komondor @DrBrainbridge Anne Carlson et al (bit.ly/3DOuSwT) reveals that conventional PLC activation pathways are not required for the #fertilization-induced depolarization of #Xenopus eggs that prevents the entry of additional sperm bit.ly/3ZfrBAs
