1/6 New preprint! Do changes to insulin/IGF-1 signalling (IIS) that extend lifespan also protect the germline, or do they come with a mutational cost? led by @eduxbury.bsky.social with @alicegodden.bsky.social @immler.bsky.social Johnny de Coriolis Hanne Carlsson www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Delighted to see our work picked up by @theguardian.com this is a real window of opportunity for us to reduce carbon emissions to give the bears a hope at survival before it really is too late.

Reduced insulin/IGF-1 signalling (IIS) robustly extends lifespan and enhances somatic stress resistance across taxa, yet its consequences for germline genome integrity remain unclear. Here we combine ...

Join members of the University of East Anglia’s Women’s Health Network and leading experts from across Norfolk for an engaging and inspiring look at the future of women’s healthcare.

New preprint from my PhD is out! We show that loss of miR‑219 disrupts neural border gene programs and prevents neural crest specification. Excited to finally share it 🚀 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... #xenopus #miRNA #genomics

Looking for small pot of funding approx £5,000 to conduct some exciting genomics for a pilot transposons and climate resilience project in vulnerable species. If anyone knows of any pots available to UK-based researchers please let me know :) #funding #research #academia #NERC #UKRI

Wrote a short piece on Transposable Elements as catalysts of evolutionary innovation for a forthcoming special issue of @naturerevgenet.bsky.social on, duh, Evolutionary Innovation! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Scientists say bears in southern Greenland differ genetically to those in the north, suggesting they could adjust Changes in polar bear DNA that could help the animals adapt to warmer climates have been detected by researchers, in a study thought to be the first time a statistically significant link has been found between rising temperatures and changing DNA in a wild mammal species. Climate breakdown is threatening the survival of polar bears. Two-thirds of them are expected to have disappeared by 2050 as their icy habitat melts and the weather becomes hotter. Continue reading...
