My entry to the Marine Biological Laboratory's pumpkin carving contest honoring Osamu Shimomura (MBL Senior Scientist 1981-2001) and his invaluable efforts discovering and characterizing aequorin and Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) from the crystal jelly, Aequorea victoria.
ALT Portrait of Osamu Shimomura (1/3 of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2008) carved in relief onto the surface of a pumpkin. In his hand is a vial which has a green bulb sticking out of it to resemble the glow of isolated Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP).

The 1st of 2 preprints on crustacean Hox regulation from the Patel Lab @Parflyale is up!
Erin Jarvis @apoptic used CRISPR, IF, and ISH of multiple Hox genes to show cross-regulatory and combinatorial interactions driving limb identity in Parhyale! 🧵1/n

The video features Aaron Pomerantz, a graduate student in MBL Director Nipam Patel's lab. He videotaped most of the segment himself!

Feel fortunate to have seen Human Nature at the Woods Hole Film Festival! It is a multifaceted, accessible documentary about the impact of basic science in the discovery of CRISPR and its potential impact and ethical implications. Go see it when it is released in the fall!

Pair a retired academic with the obsessive hyperfocus of a border collie and you get Chaser, who lived a long & healthy life with a larger than life vocabulary & an ability to generalize nouns. RIP, Chaser. nytimes.com/2019/07/27/scien…

The Patel Lab's Berkeley Border Collie mascot was paired with a grad student lacking in time to teach such an extensive vocabulary. Caspian is extraordinary nonetheless.

Easy enough ...
Nipam Patel: Evolution has solved all the problems we're interested in, we just have to find those organisms and figure out how to ask them how they did it. #2019SDB

Nipam's talks are always so great, inspiring, and it never gets old for me to see the beautiful work all the wonderful people have done at the Patel lab. (And feel so proud of my husband Ryan Null). 😍

Nipam Patel, Director of @MBLScience speaks at #2019SDB about what developmental biologists can learn from the amazing diversity of life; including structural color in butterflies. Science is beautiful and fun.
