Happy to be able to show some love to 🐟 gills, which I've really enjoyed learning about over the past two years.
Excited to share the final publication soon! 🤞

Really appreciated this opportunity from @the_Node to write about the amazing journey I got to be on for 6 years and the people I met on the way.
Every day I feel fortunate to live in and work for a society that chooses to be curious. I hope it continues to do so. ✨
Fish, Frogs, Friends, Lend me your Ears. 🐟🐸🐁🦎

Nice article in Scientific American about our work on outer ear evolution and a complimentary study from the lab of Maksim Plikus on role of unique lipids in mammalian ear cartilage. @MathiThiru95 @USCStemCell @KECKSchool_USC

Sox10 is required for systemic initiation of bone mineralization
Read this Research Article by Stefani Gjorcheska, Lindsey Barske and colleagues @CincyResearch:
journals.biologists.com/dev/…
ALT Figure 1 (A) Example images illustrating a major delay in initiation of bone mineralization in sox10 mutants between 3 and 7 dpf revealed by Alizarin Red staining. Some mineralization is present by 5 dpf but never achieves control levels before lethality at 8 dpf.

Welcome to embryo alphabet. Each day I will post an unannotated embryo image. Today E is for elephant. Repost tweet w/an image of a different species embryo & add a quote including name that begins with same letter of the day. @SocDevBio

Excited to share this story from my PhD revealing the surprising legacy of our gill-bearing ancestry in the form of our cartilaginous outer ears, summarized in this series of Tweets.
The outer ear is a mammalian innovation but where did it come from? In our study in @Nature, @MathiThiru95 and colleagues find that the outer ear arose from modification of an ancestral gill program first originating in marine invertebrates. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Thank you to all co-authors! @GillisLab @EvseenkoLab @YaWenChenMSSM @goodfrognosis and everyone not on Twitter/X. It's hard to emphasize how amazing it's been to work with people of such diverse expertise who still had an interest in various obscure aspects of this work.

An @USCStemCell study published in @PNASnews has identified gene regulators that enable fish and lizards to naturally regenerate their hearing. The findings could guide future efforts to regenerate hearing for patients. @CrumpLab @KeckSchool_USC stemcell.keck.usc.edu/study-…

What if you could deliver molecular tools directly into oocytes without microinjection? In our new paper, online today @Dev_journal (doi.org/10.1242/dev.202857), we introduce VitelloTag, a new cargo delivery tool to enable injection-free genome editing. 👇Read on for a short 🧵
