New paper by @Amber_D_Stubler and myself shows that Unprofessional peer reviews disproportionately harm underrepresented groups in #STEM. Please help us remove the culture of toxic #peerreview. A thread on our key findings: doi.org/10.7717/peerj.… PeerJ Publishing #academicchatter

Excited to see new #transcriptomics paper with Nisha Ajmani, Tamanna Yasmin and @saravickygood published. We identified >2,000 sex- and stage-specific DEGs in #lamprey gonads and provided new annotations for the #SeaLamprey somatic and germline assemblies academic.oup.com/g3journal/arti…

Really proud of my incoming MSc student @IanMcNicol98 for being awarded a CIHR CGS-M, Congrats!

The germline-specific region of the sea lamprey genome plays a key role in spermatogenesis biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #bioRxiv

A proud moment for us Sara V Good Margaret Docker Phil Grayson. Lampreys undergo unusual event called Programmed genome rearrangement (see more in comments). We were the first to identify the role of PGR in lamprey sex differentiation & spermatogenesis nature.com/articles/s4200…

New paper with Tamanna Yasmin Sara V Good Phil Grayson suggests the germline-specific region (GSR) of the genome—the part jettisoned from somatic cells—holds the key to #SeaLamprey #SexDifferentiation and #SexDetermination nature.com/articles/s4200…

Behind the scenes of our NatCommBiology paper - hoping that this is a big leap forward in solving the long-standing mystery of sex determination in lampreys ecoevocommunity.nature.com/posts/pervasiv… Thanks to a great team Tamanna Yasmin, Margaret Docker,Phil Grayson,University of Manitoba, UWinnipeg Research Office

Canada’s federal graduate scholarships and postdoctoral fellowships are not competitive! 😞 For ex, the NSF postdoctoral fellowship is valued at $106,000 CAD 🇺🇸, compared to the $45,000 🇨🇦 offered by the Tri-Agency fellowships 😱🤕 #scholarships #graduate

📢 Calling all those who support our initiatives! We are almost there, we need 46 more signatures to reach 500 and the petition will be presented in the House of Commons! #SupportOurScience
