In newborns, tiny traffic cops in the liver need a GPS to find their way to the bloodstream and protect against infections. @brunaraujodavid @Kubes_Lab @Fernand60273751 @tamanna_uofm @moritzpeiseler @KathyDMcCoy @FGinhoux @ImmunoEditor @SciImmunology

Restricted access of Kupffer cells to the bloodstream in newborns is linked to increased systemic bacterial infections and higher mortality.

Effects of lampricides on the gill and liver transcriptomes of a non-target teleost fish. New paper relevant for @LampreyControl in the Great Lakes. Great work by @mjlawrence27 and @phil_d_grayson!! @MargaretDocker @ColinGarroway @jenjeffrey02

Lampreys undergo programmed genome rearrangement at ~3dpf which eliminates 20% of the genome from somatic line but only retained in germline. In this paper, we found out that the genes present in this retained portion showed predominantly male biased expression.

A proud moment for us @saragoodlab @MargaretDocker @phil_d_grayson. Lampreys undergo unusual event called Programmed genome rearrangement (see more in comments). We were the first to identify the role of PGR in lamprey sex differentiation & spermatogenesis https://t.co/L7UzQ8IWdU

Super-exciting work on #SeaLamprey #SexDetermination funded by @LampreyControl 👇👇👇 Collaborators @phil_d_grayson @tamanna_uofm @saragoodlab @ColinGarroway and @alielw are helping resolve questions that have perplexed me since my PhD >30 years ago.
Excited to share a new preprint from my @umanitoba Postdoc with @alielw, @ColinGarroway and @MargaretDocker! A 🧵 (1/n) on sex chromosome evolution, sea lamprey & our approach! SexFindR: A computational workflow to identify young and old sex chromosomes

Sex chromosomes have evolved frequently across the tree of life, and have been a source of fascination for decades due to their unique evolutionary trajectories. They are hypothesised to be important...

With the help of co-supervisor @saragoodlab and collaborator @phil_d_grayson, @tamanna_uofm is closing in on the answer to a decades-old mystery: how is sex determined in #SeaLamprey?
Wednesday, Dec. 22 is our last Crackerjack for 2021! Tune in at 3:30 pm CST to hear Tamanna Yasmin speak about "The germline-specific region of the sea lamprey genome plays a key role in spermatogenesis".

Morale still strong? STRONGER, I’d say. A month ago, I felt demoralized—overworked, underappreciated & isolated. The first 2 haven’t changed, but #solidarity with @UMFA_FAUM colleagues and @supportingumfa students fighting for the future of @umanitoba has energized me! #UMFA2021
Thank you to EVERYONE who attended the rally today- thankfully morale is still so strong ✊ Anyone who didn't make it can show support online by emailing your profs and telling them to keep holding the line!

@biorxivpreprint Excited and proud of doctoral student @tamanna_uofm and collaborators @phil_d_grayson and lamprey expert @MargaretDocker for working together on this exciting project in sea lamprey in which we show that the germline specific region plays a key role in spermatogenesis.

I apparently need to spend more time spreading the word about native lampreys! This talk doesn’t focus specifically on those in the Great Lakes, but I talk about good lampreys in general (amid the bad and the ugly):

Excited to see new #transcriptomics paper with @AjmaniNisha, @tamanna_uofm and @saravickygood published. We identified >2,000 sex- and stage-specific DEGs in #lamprey gonads and provided new annotations for the #SeaLamprey somatic and germline assemblies

Abstract. Lampreys are jawless fishes that diverged ∼550 million years ago from other vertebrates. Sequencing of the somatic and the germline genomes of th
