Thanks it’s tomorrow but my kids were in town last weekend! They did the Great Saunter (32+ miles around the perimeter of Manhattan!)

Our summer high school students visited yesterday while on midwinter break. It is so inspiring to see the future! What can we do to ensure that they have the same opportunities we did?

Finally, we analyzed target genes for their roles in body size regulation, and showed that not only are cuticle collagen genes regulated at the level of transcription, but that BMP signaling also regulates the secretion of collagen into the cuticle.
