Thanks!! Is it not super cool that [email protected] sells research related merch to raise funds for students!!? Get some mammalian dental variation gear through the link below!’


I will share my new project in the Harmit S. Malik lab at #ESEB2022. Thank you @KamilSJaron for the invitation. I'd appreciate any suggestions, and like to talk to anyone who is interested in my research. This is my first ESEB meeting, and I'm looking forward to it.



Congrats to all the #HannaGrayFellows! Very proud of and happy for Malik lab alumna Michelle Hays and for Malik/Subramaniam lab postdoc Maria Toro Moreno (who insists on not being on Twitter) 😱

Here is a Fred Hutch Cancer Center piece by Sabrina Richards on Maria's fellowship if you would like to read more about her fredhutch.org/en/news/center… (congrats also to the Derbyshire Lab @ Duke)

Seen by me and Risa Takenaka in the Malik lab fly room today. It’s possible this refers to fly strains that need to be culled but that would be the generous interpretation.


All #SRC speakers are invited to present in tandem with trainees from their labs This October, Harmit S. Malik and postdoc @PravruthaRaman from Fred Hutch Cancer Center will co-present: Genetic innovation in centromeric histone H3 (cenH3) variants Register by Oct 19th: stowers.org/conferences/sr…


After 2 years and 48 (!!) articles, my time as the Basic Sciences editor for #ScienceSpotlight Fred Hutch Cancer Center Hutch Basic Sciences has come to a close. I've loved being so engrossed in the division's work. Check out my last 2 pieces, out today:


What a find Gilbert Price ! You'll definitely want to check out our free read Conserved and taxon-specific patterns of #phenotypic modularity in the #mammalian #dentition Risa Takenaka, Selene M Clay, Sunwoo Yoo, Prof. Leslea J. Hlusko via doi.org/10.1093/iob/ob… #FossilFriday


Cool to see Fred Hutch scientists Elizabeth Bonner (ebonner.bsky.social) and Risa Takenaka on the Town Hall Seattle/Engage Science 2023 lineup!

50 years ago, Larry found infertile flies in Rome. 20 years ago, Maria got a lead on why they’re infertile. Now, with new technology, Risa is back on the case for the smoking gun. Come learn more at our 2nd Science Now talk 5/3/23 @ 5:30PM at Town Hall Seattle townhallseattle.org/event/risa-tak…


A wonderful talk with so many deep insights -- thanks Noah Whiteman for visiting UW Biology !

Malik Lab grad students working hard to bring Beer Hour to you today! See you there Fred Hutch Cancer Center Hutch Basic Sciences (don't worry, Harmit S. Malik , we stayed a full $1 under budget)


Long-shot ask: do any Drosophilists have a stock of the abo2 allele? It’s no longer available at BDSC, but we’d love to get our hands on it…! Harmit S. Malik Dr. Leila Rieder, PhD


Never thought I’d leave grad school in tears, but here we are. Hung up my pipettes, locked up lab for the last time, and it’s all a blurry haze. Thanks Harmit S. Malik Fred Hutch Cancer Center Hutch Basic Sciences Seattle MCB Program
