Review now out in @npp-journal.bsky.social! Epigenetic regulation of brain development, plasticity, and response to early life stress rdcu.be/ezzYq

I will be opening my new lab in September at UBC! if you’re coming to #Worm25 and are looking for graduate studies or a postdoc position, let’s meet! Vancouver + worms = perfect vibes. www.zoology.ubc.ca/~yeecs/labsi... Please share! 🙌

Things are bad right now, but the work continues. I forgot to share this when it came out, but I hope this review article I wrote with @allard-lab-ucla.bsky.social will be useful to both environmental epigeneticists, and worm folks looking to get into the field. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Our commentary on the inefficacies of current environmental policies directed towards important contaminants such as #microplastics and #PFAS is out in Nature's Communications, Earth, and the Environment. Check it out here: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

#HiSciSky I'm a postdoc in Patrick Allard's lab at UCLA. I use C. elegans to study pesticide-induced neurodegeneration and the transgenerational effects of alcohol. I'm also interested in #STS things like the scientific publishing model and the use of metaphors in biology. #neuroscience #philsci
