We're hiring postdoctoral researchers in yeast evolutionary genomics and synthetic biology! Yeasts are incredibly diverse and so are the projects available - from basic and fundamental principles of evolution to metabolic engineering for bioenergy: hittinger.genetics.wisc.edu/…

Our developed automatic primer designer for PCR-mediated in situ genetic targeting on eukaryotic microorganisms with experimental validation across multiple species, multiple genetic backgrounds, and multiple experimental setups.
Glad to introduce GetPrimers, a generalized PCR-based genetic targeting primer designer enabling easy and standardized targeted gene modification across multiple systems developed by our lab. Webserver: evomicslab.org/app/getprimer…; Preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Abscondita cerata is the most abundant endemic firefly in Taiwan. Our new paper demonstrates a Nanopore flowcell generates long reads polished with BGI PE100 short reads may cover ~85% of a drafted genome. (part of Taiwan Biogenome Project) dx.doi.org/10.6620/ZS.2023.6…

Masatoshi Nei was not only a great evolutionary biologist. He was also a successful teacher who mentored many students who themselves became successful scientists and mentors. The F1s are shown below, the F2s, F3s, and Fns are too numerous to count. So lucky to be #7 of the F1s.

I am so saddened to hear that Dr. Masatoshi Nei has died at 92. Dr. Nei was one of the most eminent figures in the field of evolutionary biology. It was my tremendous honor to work on my PhD under guidance of Dr. Nei. I am forever grateful for his support. cst.temple.edu/news/2023/05/…

Really happy to finally see this work out! We found using an isolated brainstem prep that severely hypoxic/anoxic slider turtles are most likely blind, may still hear. shorturl.at/gLU05 shorturl.at/CFIJ8 @SLUBiology @PharmPhysSLU @J_Exp_Biol

Our paper on how variations in insect cuticular hydrocarbons determine desiccation resistance across Drosophila species has just been published. @zinan_wang is the lead author of our paper and provides a brief summary. @MSUEntomology
Thrilled to share our recent paper in @eLife !! In this study, we addressed a fundamental question in insect biology: how do insects adapt to living in different terrestrial environments? Link: doi.org/10.7554/eLife.80859 [1/10]
