Our newest work on quantification and statistical testing of scoliosis severity using microCT and R. www.cell.com/star-protoco... Thanks to @eceatayeter.bsky.social @brittneyvoigt

Great collaboration with Dan Cohn's group showing that small molecule inhibition of Trpv4 can rescue skeletal dysplasia of Trpv4 mutant mice. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41574606/

20th annual @jbwallingford.bsky.social lab chili cookoff 🌶️ previlaged to be part of a few along the way. Congratulations to the top chili winner Ty Gardner!

Our new work Cilia.io is out on the Rxiv. Ece Atayeter and Jason Ho trained an ML computer vision transformer for detection and quantification of cilia morphology and dynamics. We will provide a GUI soon. Another great collaboration w/ @jbwallingford.bsky.social

Congratulations to the newly minted Dr. Brittney Voigt! After defending a fantastic thesis spanning work in my lab and the @edwardmarcotte.bsky.social lab.

As Vice Chair of the GRC Bones and Teeth, I am delighted to invite you to join us for our upcoming meeting, on January 25–30, 2026, at Hotel Galvez in Galveston, TX, a cherished venue for our conference. We look forward to welcoming you to what is sure to be an exciting and memorable meeting!

Cilia Alert! So excited to finally have this paper on the CPLANE complex out in @natcomms.nature.com! We show that RSG1 is a human ciliopathy protein and links CPLANE to the transition zone. 1/n www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Look at this handsome son of a gun.

nothing like bringing a new technique to the lab, RNAScope Soxx9 (red) in P40 mouse tibia.

Great resource thanks Jeff et al!

FYI when writing someone to request a job interview you might want to included a more concise sentence on why you want to work with them instead of this: ' I have recently reviewed your research which really interests me in your field of activity'. Form letters do not work.

Somedays you wake up and choose Bad Brains.

Great collection of informics websites. Thanks @kevinthiessen.bsky.social !

I miss ticket stubs…also I cannot believe this was 30+ years ago
