Moving forward from last month…I will spend most of this month working on a juvenile clam OA experiment. For the past three weeks I have been piggy backing on Carolyn’s feeding study at FHL. This week I will be...

Mac's Feb Goals
February is all about sequencing (and bioinformatics).  There are two main sequencing efforts going on this month to assess the DNA methylation status of C. gigas genes. The first is a targeted approach using bisulfite PCR where I have been targeting genes for methylation analysis based either on function (vitellogenin and estrogen receptor) or to confirm results obtained using Nanostring...

Emma's February Goals
This month I am going to finish my experiment at Friday Harbor and come back to Seattle!!  I need to make sure that everything goes smoothly and that I get some good data.  I’d like to get started on some lab work the last week of February. I’m also attending the Ocean Sciences conference in Salt Lake City.   I’m hoping my talk goes well and that it’s a good networking...

The secret life of proteins: Researchers discover... →
sciencenote: That protein, STIM1, was previously known to sense a change in calcium within immune cells, a process that occurs when the body confronts a pathogen. Upon sensing this change, STIM1 opens a type of pore in the cell membrane, called a CRAC channel, to allow the flow of calcium ions — a vital step in activating the immune system. “People have generally thought that selectivity of ion...

House of Mind: Epigenetics →
houseofmind: The term epigenetics was introduced in the 1940s by Conrad Waddington, who defined it as: ‘‘the branch of biology which studies the causal interactions between genes and their products which bring the phenotype into being.’’ However, with the growth and evolution of genetics, the term gained a…
