a triumphant milestone on a long, long journey. I recall feeling inspired when @dimatero described this vision to me ~10y ago. I'm even more inspired by how he pursued it relentlessly from that day & very proud to have played a part in bringing it to life!

LFG Connor!!! I've been so impressed by your effort throughout this project & especially this last push to get it written up and delivered to the world. Burge lab grad students out here kicking ass. Well done! 💪.

Last (or is it?!) preprint of 2022: . Graduate student Connor Kenny investigated the LUC7 family of U1-binding proteins and found that they broadly alter the splicing of exons with different classes (🫲 or 🫱) of 5'SS motifs!. 🧵👇.
