My condolences for your loss

Thank you, Megan! 😊

Finally, this work raises the possibility of using evolutionarily conserved co-expression patterns to transfer knowledge between organisms that are not very accessible to experimentation.

Please let me know what you think of the paper and our interactive tool!

We also use extensive computational negative controls to validate our analysis. This isn't something that I've seen in the literature, despite articles advocating for it over the past 20 years.

In my view, computational negative controls are just as important as experimental ones.

Our paper demonstrates that it is possible to revitalize old data, and we bring together microarray and RNA-seq datasets in our analysis. The old results that are publicly available shouldn't be forgotten just because our methods have changed. If there experiments are sound, we should use them.

Keeping my fingers crossed and sending hugs

Thank you for reading, and I'm very happy to discuss any aspect of this work! :)

That kindness and generosity led to this paper. I don't think I would still be in science/academia without his support.

I can't express how much I appreciate my undergraduate advisor, Aaron Turkewitz, who helped shape everything from my scientific sense to my love of pottery. During the height of the pandemic when I was on a medical leave of absence from my PhD, Aaron paid me part time to revisit my undergrad work.
