WW2 history wasn’t enough so now I study genetic conflict too.

Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life. Meiotic drive, Small RNAs, Epigenetics @ the Univ. of Rochester
I got my NICHD F31 score back and I’m so happy with how it went for my very first submission! Really proud of the effort I put into it and glad that others thought it was good as well 🤗

How long does an mRNA stay in the nucleus? How long does it stay in the cytoplasm? In an amazing collaboration with @landthalerm.bsky.social, we used metabolic labeling, cell fractionation and mathematical modeling to quantify mRNA flow through the cell. Finally out in MSB: doi.org/10.1038/s443...
