Weβre celebrating Andrea in lab today with some frog-themed cookies- UW Biochemistry department voted in favor of tenure! πΈπ #xenopus #regenGreat



Latest publication from Wills Lab in Developmental Biology is officially out! This is part of a series of cool experiments driven by an interest in HIF1a from my rotation with Dana π³οΈβππ¬, but this is the only #regeneGREAT one (so far). authors.elsevier.com/c/1eWJ-2mzTZVW8







Look who also visited to pose with their artwork. Anneke Kakebeen who made the #xenopus tropicalis staging series poster for DevelopmentalDynamic Stop by and pick up a copy if you are at #SDB2022


So excited to wrap up this body of work (as wrapped up as anything in research can be π , lots of fun projects in the works for rotation students starting in Seattle MCB Program and UW Biochemistry in the fall)! If you'd like the zoom link, you can DM or join us in person!


Happening TODAY - Jeet Patel's defense! Title: Metabolic and transcriptional rewiring required for regeneration in Xenopus tropicalis Lab: Wills lab (UW) When: Monday, Aug. 8, 2:30 p.m. PDT Where: UW Health Sciences Building K069 & Zoom (email [email protected] for link)





We are looking for a #LabTech to join our recently opened lab. If you love #DevBio #zebrafish and #microscopy come join us in beautiful Salt Lake City! U of Utah Human Genetics Zebrafish Rock!

Jeet Patel won DBβs Best Paper Award and is presenting it at the Society for Developmental Biologyβs #2023SDB meeting in Chicago! βHif1Ξ± and Wnt are required for posterior gene expression during Xenopus tropicalis tail regenerationβ Find it here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35065905/
