Congratulations @ucmerced.bsky.social! And a really big thank you to all of our students, alumni, and faculty for believing in the research mission of our young campus.

This Friday, the UC Merced community will hold a remembrance to celebrate the life and contributions of bioengineering Professor Emeritus Ariel Escobar, who passed away in December. 🔗 ucm.edu/b6xckb

Congrats to former QSB graduate student Cal Larnerd on your new publication in PLOS Genetics! @ucmerced.bsky.social

QSB and Applied Math are looking forward to hosting the @jgi.doe.gov workshop today and tomorrow @ucmerced.bsky.social. Featuring leading edge applications of -omics, AI, and computational approaches to biological questions. Here's to 11 more years of great partnership! @suzannesindi.bsky.social

New Year's resolution achieved early: QSB is now primarily here on Bluesky - X/Twitter is deactivated! @ucmerced.bsky.social

It's @ucmerced.bsky.social Graduate Division Commencement Day! Looking forward to celebrating the accomplishments of our doctoral and master's degrees recipients! #UCM2024

My first first-author paper was published this morning! Did you know eye lenses grow in layers throughout life and can be analyzed to study movement and foraging ecology. But eye lenses differ in bio molecular composition across fish taxa, especially for sharks! 🧪🌎🦑 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Happy to share a new review from me and former @qsb-uc-merced.bsky.social student Leesa Strasser on atypical RhoUV GTPases. Although not as well known as The Big 3, RhoUVs have surprisingly dynamic expression patterns that suggest context-specific functions. doi.org/10.1042/BST2...
