Amazing work by Anyi!.
1. Our new #EvoDevo and Wnt gene regulation paper is out in @ScienceMagazine. We used #ATACseq and #CRISPR to study the evolution and role of cis-regulatory elements (CREs) of a patterning gene in different species of #butterflies. 🧵🧵🧵Check the cover🔥.

Application review begins in one week! This position is currently funded for 3 years and I have lots of preliminary data for several projects. Apply here:
I'm looking for a postdoc! Interested in using ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, Hi-C, WGS, and CRISPR to study the genetic architecture of adaptations in butterflies? That's great, me too! Feel free to contact me with any questions! Review begins Oct. 17. Pls RT. 1/2.
