Are you confused/intrigued about pioneer TFs? Interesting viewpoint discussion on pTFs by the leaders in the field:
-What are pTF?
-What do they do?
-How to study pTF?
-Can we classify pTFs?
-Are they context dependent?
-Does chromatin affect pTF activity?

It has been such fun working with @BSarah232 and the rest of the @BrayLabCam learning these powerful techniques. Check out the insights that can be gained by leveraging the distinctive salivary glands in Drosophila.

I'm proud to share our new pre-print! In the @BrayLabCam we've used Single Molecule tracking to study the dynamics of transcription factor CSL in #drosophila salivary glands. We show increased local exploration near targets in response to #Notch signaling!

Excited that our work on the role of GAGA factor in repressing simple repeats is out now in @Dev_Cell. Great collaborative science with @Shelby_A_Blythe and @MustafaMir16 led by Marissa Gaskill (now Dr. Gaskill).

Haven't been on the platform much recently, but getting to spend 6 months in the @BrayLabCam, learning about the exciting science and interacting with the amazing folks in the lab like @fjavierdha is worthy of posting! Check out some of what they have been up to.
