My lab group is interested in understanding the genetic and developmental mechanisms behind the evolution of  novel phenotypes (evo-devo). I am seeking a curious and motivated student interested in biomineralization and/or molluscs to join my team.  The aim of my research is to understand how the shell of molluscs has evolved into so many different forms by understanding the developmental mechanisms regulating biomineralization via the mantle. 

We are a new lab helping to develop a slipper snail (Crepidula atrasolea) to test fundamental evolution and development questions. As a member of our lab, you will have the freedom to tailor your project to your interests, ideally relating to the genetics, development, and role of the nervous system in shell formation in gastropods. Depending on your project and research goals, you will have the opportunity to learn microinjection, CRISPR, hybridization chain reaction in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, confocal microscopy, animal husb

What about soils and wildfires? The fire should turn all plant biomass that burned into mineral ash. N, P, S, Fe, etc…

Absolutely agree. Desperation and computational simplicity is driving people to use predictions based on 16S rRNA genes.

A Dangerous Conflation We are Jewish writers, artists, and activists who wish to disavow the widespread narrative that any criticism of Israel is inherently antisemitic. Israel and its defenders have long used this rhetoric...

Happy to be one of the Jewish writers who's signed this letter.
"We refuse the false choice between Jewish safety and Palestinian freedom; between Jewish identity and ending the oppression of Palestinians. In fact, we believe the rights of Jews and Palestinians go hand-in-hand."

First you got to write it, then edit it, review it, and in the end you might still need to write something for the Intro of the special issue. That’s a lot of work. ;-)
