So excited that this paper is out!! Very proud of my molecular biology roots and incredibly thankful for the mentors I share authorship with! This represents some of my very first scientific contributions, and I couldn’t be happier for my younger self and this amazing team! doi.org/10.1038/s414...
YTHDF2 regulates self non-coding RNA metabolism to control inflammation and tumorigenesis - Nature Communications
RNA modifications influence gene regulation and disease. Here, the authors show that YTHDF2 recognizes m6A-modified U6 snRNA to prevent aberrant TLR3 activation to inhibit inflammation and skin cancer...

Phylogenetic relationships and the evolution of fin and body shape in the surgeonfishes
Patterns of evolutionary change in the fin and body shapes of fishes are strongly related to dietary ecology and locomotor mechanisms, and associations between shapes affects ecomorphological relation...
