My now go-to genetic knowledgebase alliancegenome.org has a new release, with more harmonized data from worms, flies, mouse, yeast, fish, rats and human, and a first version of AllianceMine. Alliance of Genome Resources


Thrilled to see Scientific American featured our work on how oyster mushroom 🍄 poisons nematodes. IMB Academia Sinica @SinicaFans EMBO YIP EMBO

In honor of the #Olympics We present highspeed videos of roundworms taking off on their Olympic quality jumps to ten times their height! Adler Dillman

Worms jumping faster than muscle contraction! microPublication Michael Eisen


Along with Heidi Goodrich-Blair and Adler Dillman, we are studying an awesome worm, the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema hermaphroditum. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out our new work (w/ wormraiser and Mike O'Donnell ) in JACS! Specific assembly of modular glucosides (MOGLs) via carboxylesterase CEST-1.2 regulates starvation survival in C. elegans pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…




Without NIH support ALL model organism databases-a crucial component of biomedical research-are threatened. Make your voice heard: surveymonkey.com/r/5NGLNNJ. Background info American Society for Cell Biology Genetics Society of America :ascb.org/wp-content/upl…

If you've ever used a MOD or even PubMed (so, that means YOU!) please take 5 minutes to tell the NIH why those resources are important surveymonkey.com/r/5NGLNNJ dictyBase FlyBase Mouse Genome Info Rat Genome Database reactome TAIR @tairnews.bsky.social ZFIN SGD Project @[email protected] (bsky too) wormbase S. pombe model organism knowledgebase FungiDB

Fruit of a lovely collaboration with Vivek Venkatachalam ‘s lab finds an interneuron downstream of pheromone sensation in the worm’s diapause vs reproductive decision. authors.elsevier.com/a/1exmg3QW8R%7…


Excited to share a view and conceptual framework for achievable time-resolved autonomous adaptive data acquisition for hyperspectral imaging of living biological systems. Huge thanks to my co-authors (Hari, Derek, Berkeley IR Structural Biology Imaging Program, wormraiser ) and to Applied Physics Reviews! 🙏
