Preprint alert from the lab
@jasminealqassar.bsky.social led this elegant study of gene expression in the silk glands of our favorite alternative "silk worm", the pantry moth.
Mega-polyploid cells with thousands of genome copies just to express a handful of proteins

Great to have our caddisfly silk review now included in an issue in Trends in Genetics. And, I might be biased, but that sure is a beautiful cover ;)!
The June issue is live!
Two Opinion articles challenge the way we think about the genomic code, and Reviews cover topics ranging from human handedness to caddisfly silk (the latter of which is featured on the cover, courtesy of @paulbfrandsen.bsky.social).

A new paper on our ongoing Ecuador work on testing molecular tools for bioassessment. A team effort, led by Frandlab grad student @gjijonn.bsky.social. Always grateful for an opportunity to work with @blancanauta.bsky.social :)
