Some genes carry an β€˜imprint’ on either the maternal or the paternal copy, which determines whether or not that copy is expressed go.nature.com/3wDZG3j

Congratulations to our great mentor @Marisa_S_B. We are so excited for all of your accomplishments and we will continue celebrating each of them.
Marisa S. Bartolomei of @Penn is being inducted as a member of the National Academy of Sciences for discovering mechanisms governing genomic imprinting, which establishes different epigenetics-based roles of sperm and eggs in reproduction. Watch #NAS159: ow.ly/kmNI50IU6tw

Yes, dosage of imprinted genes is important! Accurate H19/Igf2 dosage is critical for cardiac-placental axis in mouse development; VSD/cardiac hypotrophy/placental thrombosis in SRS-like mouse embryos. Heart and placenta are connected, through H19/Igf2! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Today marks the five-year anniversary of the #Pulse massacre. On 12 June 2016, 49 people were killed in a mass shooting inside Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. Five years on, the world mourns the loss of and honours these proud members of the LGBTQ+ community

What a fun way to start the weekend, left the lab at 5:00pm it’s already 7:15pm and my train hasn’t moved for over 2 hours. This has been the longest ride to get home. (Fun fact: it takes 30mins by train to get from the lab to my place) 😑
