Tim the Beaver might have competition as @MIT's mascot. This squirrel ran into @MITBiology Prof. Olivia Corradin's class.
Who do you think is the most curious critter?

Epigenetic convergence in opioid overdose. Great to see this multi-team collaboration in print! Such a great group of people on this project. S. Akbarian, D. Mash, E. Johnson, D. Hancock, @ScacheriLab@Bun_Without_Bnature.com/articles/s41380-0…
Genome wide association studies have been used to identify genes that may be linked to opioid use disorder, but need hundreds of thousands of samples.
@MeWantData & collaborators have developed a way to identify these genes, using a small # of samples: wi.mit.edu/news/opioids-and-…

Enjoying some ☀️ on my last day as a @WhiteheadInst fellow! 5 yrs ago I moved to Boston knowing no one & terrified (in the best way) at the challenge ahead.
I’ll never forget the feeling of stepping into that empty lab day 1! I’ve learned so much…here’s to the next challenge!
We are excited to announce the appointment of two new Whitehead Institute faculty members, Olivia Corradin @SorryChips and Sinisa Hrvatin @hrvatin_sinisa! Read more: ow.ly/1MGU50EEIwf
Taking advantage of one of those rare pandemic positives, and listening in on a virtual professorship celebration for @Geneticyclist. Such an incredible mentor. Well deserved!
