Interesting. This technique gives a "shuffle" function to human genome studies, at unprecedented scale. Should generate new insights into gene function, and why we have so much apparent "filler" DNA. 🧪
Randomizing the human genome by engineering recombination between repeat elements
We lack tools to edit DNA sequences at scales necessary to study 99% of the human genome that is noncoding. To address this gap, we applied CRISPR prime editing to insert recombination handles into re...

A good summary of the January 2025 snowstorm along the Gulf Coast in the quote post below. 1/2 🧪
Record snowfall fell across several southern states last week, including as far south as some Gulf Coast beaches.

Some locations accumulated 10.0 or more inches, recording more snow so far this winter than many locations up north, including Chicago!

Sneak peek of a figure I’m working on. Some micro-CT scans of three Aussie bees (Tetragonula carbonaria, Austroplebia australis and Amegilla pulchra), comparing the different parts of their brains.

Xiphophorus fish are one of the oldest animal models for cancer research (dating back to 1920s). It provided the first evidence that cancer has a genetic basis after it was found hybrids of platyfish (X. maculatus) & swordtails (X. hellerii) can develop highly malignant melanomas. #TeleostTalk 🧪

Word up. It's #FossilFriday. This week, meet Eophrynus. This is a ~315 million year old member of the trigonotarbids - an extinct group, related to spiders, whip spiders, and whip scorpions. Check out the spines! I love this fossil.

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Well, the planet is burning.
