2024 Mid-Atlantic Meiosis Mini-Symposium!! 🐭🪱🪰🧬🦠Co-organized with Leah Rosin (Lee-ah Rose-in) and Florencia Pratto at NIH. Amazing talks from trainees and new PIs🎉 #meiosis4eva

The Institute mourns the loss of R. Scott Hawley, PhD. A brilliant scientist, cherished colleague, & true mentor. Scott's contributions to our understanding of genetics & passion for training the next generation of scientists will forever be remembered. bit.ly/3WPqqYG

We are deeply saddened by the loss of an esteemed colleague, friend, mentor & a pioneer in Drosophila & meiosis research. R. Scott Hawley was a dedicated supporter of GSA & a champion of genetics. Read an In Memoriam published in Genes to Genomes: buff.ly/3EoNQh8

My lab at Brown University is hiring a postdoctoral fellow! We develop single-molecule imaging technologies to dissect the spatial regulation of gene expression. For more information about my lab, visit weihan-li.com Please help spread the word! #RNA #imaging

A tribute to my friend R. Scott Hawley: biologue.plos.org/2025/02/11/r-s…

People need to know that NIH grants are the backbone of American biology and thus of our biotech industry. I took a moment away from doing science to talk about how science gets done with Olivia Aldridge with KUT News about recent IDC rate cuts. kut.org/science/2025-0…

📢 FUNDED! I will be recruiting a computational postdoc on our favorite topic #XChromosomeInactivation role on #sexdifferences in #autoimmunity #MultipleSclerosis. If you fancy working on exceptional #singlecell #omics datasets contact me! Predoc fellow with prior experience DM

New lab preprint! We did a giant genetic screen for factors that help cells to divide into more than 2 (as can occur in cancer). Our top hit is an unnamed fly gene that has a human counterpart which is targeted by an FDA-approved drug for epilepsy. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Cohesin is essential for maintaining structural loops but less so for regulatory loops and transcription. Is cohesin actually required for the establishment of loops and transcriptional activation?🧵bit.ly/4hXremH

Our revised manuscript explains how Guo et al. concluded PRC2 is not an RNA binding protein. They retained unmappable reads, selectively removed read duplicates from the mappable fraction, and applied an arbitrary cutoff for PRC2 enrichment in RNA. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Thrilled to share our latest preprint on satellite DNA in Bombyx mori and its close relative B. mandarina! 🧬😃 biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

Jeff Sekelsky, Corbin Jones, & I give huge thanks to Frank McNally, Christoph Haag, Andrew Kern, Bengt Hansson, Takashi Akera, & Leah Rosin (Lee-ah Rose-in) for being guests in our #Meiosis, Recombination & Evolution of Sex class UNC_Biology. A pic from our last session with the students

We are thrilled to announce the election of 120 members and 30 international members to the National Academy of Sciences in recognition of their distinguished and continued achievements in original research. Congratulations to our new #NASmembers and welcome to the Academy! 🎊

It's May, which means more brilliant butterflies and moths to look out for! 🌷🦋 Butterflies need wilder parks and gardens. Will you promise to let your lawn grow long for butterflies this summer? Pledge to grow not mow 👉 butterfly-conservation.org/make-your-prom… #SaveButterflies #MothsMatter
