Congratulations to the legendary scientist Judith Kimble!!!

We stand on the shoulders of giants.

Congratulations to my students Saahj Gosrani and Monica Reeves for winning best talk and best poster at the Emory Graduate Student Biological Sciences Division Symposium. Very proud!

Remarkable story about how transcriptional repressors and nucleosome remodeling reinforce the function of histone modifications to specify cell fate (germline vs. soma). Have a read!

Don’t forget to submit your abstract for the C. elegans topic meeting June 10-14 in Madison, WI. Oral abstract deadline April 3rd! uwmadison.eventsair.com/mapsdev26/

Submit your abstract by April 10 for what is sure to be an outstanding Southeast Society for Developmental Biology Meeting May 18-20 at Kennesaw State University www.sdbonline.org/sesdb2026 @socdevbio.bsky.social

Ugh

Happy to be hosting Jane Hubbard from NYU Grossman School of Medicine @emoryuniversity.bsky.social for a seminar today in the Dept. of Cell Biology

Atlanta stands up for science! #standupforscience @standupforscience.bsky.social

I will be there!

Stand up for science, Atlanta!

The best keynote talks make you wish you studied the question the speaker is presenting. In that respect, this amazing talk by Amita Sehgal (UPenn) on how and why flies sleep (which is likely the same reason we do) is just so amazing it’s hard to describe. Mind is truly blown. #Dros26

Don’t forget to register for the C. elegans topic meeting June 10-14 in Madison, WI. Early bird registration deadline this Friday 2/27! uwmadison.eventsair.com/mapsdev26/

Was very excited to work on this with @bscarp84.bsky.social

Great

Excited to be at the University of Kentucky to give a seminar hosted by @emduncan.bsky.social

Wanted to report a significant outcome. 0.05 snow fall accumulation in Atlanta.

Really proud of our 8 @oglethorpeuniv.bsky.social seniors who presented posters on their C. elegans pipeline CURE data, along with the whole mentorship team! @aliciakrogers.bsky.social @odedrechavi.bsky.social

Very excited to have @aliciakrogers.bsky.social here today in person @oglethorpeuniv.bsky.social to discuss data with our undergraduates as part of our C. elegans Pipeline CURE!

Interview with Nicole Roos and Anthony Wokasch: winners of the MBL Embryology course image competition   - the Node Last September marked the return of our image competition with the MBL Embryology course at Woods Hole. The 2025 cohort submitted

Exciting to see our Emory University Genetics and Molecular Biology students pursuing their passion for science and imaging! Way to go Nicole! thenode.biologists.com/interview-wi...

Amazing lab. Terrific opportunity!

Was really privileged to play a very small part in providing feedback on the development. Once again @odedrechavi.bsky.social innovating science. Brilliant!

Really excited to host @jasonsynaptic.bsky.social @emoryuniversity.bsky.social

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

Awesome science!

Really enjoyed my visit

LOL

Happy to be back @princeton.edu , where I received fabulous PhD training, to give a talk in MolBio and serve as a Health Science panelist for the Many Minds Many Stripes 125th Graduate Anniversary celebration!

Really looking forward to visiting Rutgers and @barrlab.bsky.social tomorrow!

If the same thing is true in the corresponding human patients, might it be possible to revert cognitive/behavior deficits in the human patients also?

So, expressing germline genes in neurons can block their function in a way that is reversible if you shut off the inappropriate transcription
