WOW!! A new pre-print rethinking how mosquitoes, the world's deadliest animal, mates. Amazing work from Leah @LeahHouri (former PhD student in my lab) conducted in @leslievosshall's lab. Huge implications! Leah found that contrary to what was previously thought, mosquito mating

Female mosquitoes typically mate once in a lifetime1–3, making this singular mating decision critically important for the female. Yet, mosquito mating has been historically viewed as male-guided,...

An excellent opportunity to work on some really cool biology. Nandan is not only a brilliant scientist and a fantastic mentor, he also knows how to make science fun!
So excited to join the Division of Immunobiology at Cincinnati Children's Hospital MC in March 2025. My lab will study how RNA biology regulates and is regulated by infection and immunity. We'll be hiring at all levels in 2025 - stay tuned! https://t.co/NmOXiIgacE

My favorate piece of my postdoc work is published! We fused our favorite TFs with a deaminase domain that induces point mutations in DNA, mutagenizing TF binding sites across the genome. Will be a great reagent for exp. evo., as its name suggests :)
