'Using an inbred line from a natural population with high diapause plasticity, we demonstrate that diapause is determined epigenetically: only a subset of genetically identical individuals enter diapause and this diapause plasticity is epigenetically transmitted for at least three generations'

It was a long week that ended with me having to lecture a group of grad students about how they should clean oil off a $40k objective, and how I now had to try to get dried immersion oil off a silicone immersion objective. Managed to clean it but it was tough. Had to go into lab today so I indulged in some microscope therapy. I seem to take pictures of the same thing, but darn it, it's pretty.
@returntosender I am in ❤️
Some weeks in the lab are tiring + difficult going, but then I get onto the microscope and am always reminded about why I love my work. Look at them go 🤩 #fluorescenceFriday
This “thought-provoking” paper exploits new #CryoET tools to examine the state of chromatin in situ, finding that nucleosomes in baker’s yeast cells are different from those in test tubes. https://elifesciences.org/articles/87672?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=organic

PhD in Cell Biology
Currently a Postdoc in Anatomy and Cell Biology at the University of Iowa
I love biology and teaching people about what is happening in cells. I also am really interested in microscopy.
I also like cats, horses and horseback riding, fish keeping (I have two aquariums), video games-particularly the Half-Life franchise and Half Life mods, and I have recently gotten into VR (NOT META!) so if you want to chat about any of these topics that would be great!
