Happy to see our paper on piRNA-mediated silencing and transgenerational inheritance in C.elegans in print.
Thanks to Sam Gu @ Rutgers for a great collaboration! nature.com/articles/s41592-0…

1/5 Our paper is out as a bioRxiv preprint. @sonia_elmouridi and @FaisalMAlkhaldi Like MosSCI, just better. Targeted single-copy and array integration synthesizing new and gradual improvements from the past 15 years across many labs. biorxiv.org/content/early/20…

I made an opto cell line and it's the coolest thing ever!
I feel like a wizard pointing at cells and making them contract 🧙♂️.
Here is local RhoA activation by recruitment of LARG.

That dorky sense of accomplishment when you finally find a restriction site for genotyping a knock-in that encodes a flexible linker dipeptide that does not introduce phosphorylatable amino acids. SfoI! In frame, encodes a gly-ala. AND cuts in Phusion HF buffer.

Looking for a better negative selection marker for C. elegans transgenesis than peel-1? My postdoc and Master's student developed a simple histamine-based system that works like a charm. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3343…

Are genomes of identical twins really identical? "Our results indicate that allocations of cells during development shapes genomic differences between monozygotic twins." rdcu.be/cddS6 @NatureGenet

I had to “sink or swim” in my undergrad lab, and because I swam, I assumed it was a good system. After having supportive mentors, I realize I could have learned so much more with proper guidance. Don’t let people sink just because it’s the way it was for you! #AcademicChatter

40 million years ago, ticks stole a gene from bacteria. Today, they use the enzyme that gene makes to fight off bacteria on our skin.
