Natural variation modifies centromere proximal meiotic crossover frequency and segregation distortion in Arabidopsis thaliana biorxiv.org/content/10.1... new work from us on centromere inheritance and organisation @matt-naish.bsky.social @plantevolution.bsky.social @genomeevolution.bsky.social

Excited to share our lab's first preprint: we used spatial transcriptomics to dissect how aging disrupts the cycling ovary! 🧵 This was an incredible team effort w/ @jennifergarrison.bsky.social #TammyLan @davidsebfischer.bsky.social #AlisonKochersberger #RuthRaichur #SophiaSzady

Hello there! 👋 Sharing our last perspective piece 📄 👀: “Unlocking hidden dimensions of genomic diversity within species” doi.org/10.32942/X2Z... Co-ordinated together with @diegoharta.bsky.social and "not-on-bsky" Marina Brasó-Vives @mbv_marina.bsky.social

🔺 New preprint out! About the hidden dimensions of genomic diversity 🧬 A nice collaborative effort 👇 ecoevorxiv.org/repository/v...

1. I feel like this is such obvious advice that it gets taken for granted & consequently no one says this to young scientists but READ PAPERS, read all the papers. As you move up in your career you will have less & less time to do this. Read everything that appeals to you not just in your field

Important piece by Gittleman - “It’s impossible to separate human health from health of the natural world. Ecology is the unifying science that integrates knowledge..[the] One Health approach is unlimited, exciting, & necessary for the health of life on our planet” www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... 🧪🌎🌐🌾

Hear Hear! 🙌✨ #meiosis4ever

🎯Great line of speakers #Epigenetics2025 Organized by @yatlasi.bsky.social &colleagues Supported by @gensocuk.bsky.social @heredityjournal.bsky.social will be there! 🙋🏻

New #HeredityPodcast: Genomics is about patterns, but finding them, or even knowing what to look for, is difficult. In this episode we talk to Noah Simon about the clever approaches he took to investigating the genomics of neuronal regeneration in mice. @GenSocUK #Genetics #evolution

Not checking nuclear markers like MALAT1 or intronic reads in your scRNA-seq data?🚨 We show their power to flag low-quality cells—even in top public datasets. It’s time to prioritize better QC for cleaner, more reliable genomics research! Read more: bmcgenomics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.... 1/8
