Impressive work led by the amazing @LaurynHigginson in the @DMortonPhD lab that checks all the boxes🤩.✅Cell specific transcriptomic changes from #disease mutations in the RNA exosome 🧠.✅Cool #RNA sequencing techniques 🔎.✅ #Drosophila model organism biology 🪰. Check it out!.
🚨 The lab's first preprint is out! Led by rockstar graduate student @LaurynHigginson, we present the first cell-specific transcriptome analysis of the RNA exosome, a conserved RNase, in a fully developed Drosophila brain! #RNABiology #Neuroscience 🪰🧠 🧵

This project idea originally came from a conversation after I presented work in @EmoryBCDB grad student seminar and much of the data was collected by a mentee for her @emorycollege student honors thesis! (2/3).

Extremely proud of my newest publication! Check out our study assessing a #cancer mutation in the #RNAexosome. Using #yeast we assessed how the disease-linked changes impact a highly conserved interaction of the complex! 🧬🧬🧬 (1/3).

❤️ So grateful for our @EmoryBCDB community!.
Really meaningful session at the @EmoryBCDB retreat talking about “what you cannot tell about me just by looking at me”- reminds us not to make assumptions about one another and also to find more shared life experiences. ❤️our program where everyone feels comfortable sharing ❤️
