Congratulations @ucmerced.bsky.social! And a really big thank you to all of our students, alumni, and faculty for believing in the research mission of our young campus.
Wow. UC Merced goes R1. The campus opened just 20 years ago. Kudos go to many, but I highlight the QSB graduate program @qsb-uc-merced.bsky.social that trains and graduates so many graduate students. @ucmerced.bsky.social

Congrats to former QSB graduate student Cal Larnerd on your new publication in PLOS Genetics! @ucmerced.bsky.social
First ethanol experience memory-like states look like classical memories genetically and behaviorally, but use new circuits. Also distinct from spaced training ethanol reward circuits. Great work of former grad Cal Larnerd @qsb-uc-merced.bsky.social @ucmerced.bsky.social doi.org/10.1371/jour...

My first first-author paper was published this morning! Did you know eye lenses grow in layers throughout life and can be analyzed to study movement and foraging ecology. But eye lenses differ in bio molecular composition across fish taxa, especially for sharks! 🧪🌎🦑

An entire day thinking and talking about all things cytoskeleton! Thank you to the organizers of the Bay Area Cytoskeleton Symposium. It was a huge honor to be one of this year's keynote speakers. And I was proud of the strong turn out from UC Merced students and researchers.

Happy to share a new review from me and former @qsb-uc-merced.bsky.social student Leesa Strasser on atypical RhoUV GTPases. Although not as well known as The Big 3, RhoUVs have surprisingly dynamic expression patterns that suggest context-specific functions. doi.org/10.1042/BST2...
