Within-species adaptation of locomotor capacity in deer mice and defensive structures in stickleback fish is associated with changes in Hox gene regulation.

Congrats Daniel Shaw on your paper! We found positive selection within regulatory elements on the stickleback Y chromosome! doi.org/10.1093/molbev…

Congrats to our newest Genetics PhD, Dr. Daniel Shaw! Here Daniel is with his advisor Mike White Mike White. Daniel Shaw will soon begin a post-doc with Jeffrey Good at the Univ of Montana. Congrats Dr. Shaw, we are so proud of you!

Check out our new preprint from Daniel Shaw! Daniel found regulatory regions on the threespine stickleback Y chromosome are under positive selection! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Meet one of our new #EECG awardees #EECG 2022 Daniel Shaw - evolution of gene expression on sex chromosomes in stickleback fish

Congratulations Daniel Shaw for publishing your fantastic review about the evolution of gene regulation on sex chromosomes! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Congratulations to Dr. Shivangi Nath for her exciting work looking at the meiotic behavior of the threespine stickleback X + Y. Spoiler alert: the recently evolved sex chromosomes of sticklebacks behave a lot like autosomes during meiosis. Check it out! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congratulations Alice Naftaly and Shana Pau on publishing this excellent new Iso-Seq resource for threespine sticklebacks. m.genome.cshlp.org/content/early/…

Congrats Daniel Shaw !!!!

Congratultions Alice Naftaly on another successful paper submission! Using Iso-Seq, Alice found evidence of lots of alternative splicing by tissue and sex in threespine stickleback fish. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Big congratulations to Dr. Alice Naftaly!!! Outstanding dissertation defense today! Super excited to have you join our lab for your post doc starting January! #meiosis4eva

Congratulations to Dr. Alice Naftaly, who defended her dissertation today! Alice is mentored by Mike White . Alice will head to U Oregon to post-doc with @dlibuda. Huge congrats, Dr. Naftaly!

Congrats to Barbie Q for submitting her first paper based on her undergraduate thesis! Thanks to everyone on the paper, including Shivangi Nath for being a great graduate student mentor.
