Epigenetics is certainly complex and the deeper you go into thinking about mechanism and what is normal, what is not (let alone the complex network of signalling that goes on associated with simple phenotypes) it can be a little overwelming. Sometimes there is a tendency to get bogged down in the details of the studies and lose sight that processes such and DNA methylation are 1) normal biological...

1. Figure out how to survive TAing marine bio.
2. Finish extractions of QPX clam samples and with any luck make cDNA for qPCR.
3. Come up with a plan to extract RNA from abalone larval samples from OA trial.
4. If abalone RNA extractions are promising….extract larger sample size for cDNA library.
5. Acquire more larval samples to optimize more RNA extractions (ie how many larvae do i...

Goals
Very nice to see a new lab blog pop up. It’s from the Harvell lab at Cornell University and looks like it will be a blog/notebook mashup. Note the different tabs for different members of the lab. There are several platforms for those interested in going this route. The Harvell Lab went with the Google blog platform - Blogger. Actually this was the platform used for the first Roberts lab...
