We’re recruiting a postdoc to follow up on an astonishing number of mutants with craniofacial phenotypes from our ENU mutagenesis screen. Great opportunity for someone interested in developmental genetics, craniofacial biology, mouse genetics & gene discovery. Please share!

Congratulations to Rebekah Rushforth on a masterful defense of her dissertation last week! Lucky for us she will stay on as a postdoctoral fellow for a bit after graduation in December.

Always a pleasure to participate for a couple of days in the legendary Cold Spring Harbor "Mouse Course." Thanks to Matt A, Katie F, Danelle D and Loydie J-M for the invite. Hope to do it again. Best of luck to the great young scholars i met this week.

Excited to share our latest paper in @iscience.bsky.social! We used conditional mouse genetics to dissect the roles of two GPI-anchor biosynthesis genes, Piga and Pgap2, during brain development.

Big thanks to Andrea Miller, Ivan Martinez Duncker, and the CDG CARE team for an outstanding Scientific & Family Weekend in Orlando. Hearing directly from PIGA families and clinicians was humbling and motivating. Strong energy around advancing gene replacement therapy for PIGA and other CDGs. Onward

Heading to my first CDG (Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation) Scientific & Family Conference this week in Orlando (CDG-CARE). Looking forward to reconnecting with colleagues and sharing our latest work on Piga gene replacement therapy—led by Jennifer Watts, Ph.D.

Rebekah Niewoehner, Rolf Stottmann & co found that pathogenic Ttc21b variants, the primary #cilia gene, contribute to primary #microcephaly, with homozygous #mouse mutants showing severe #microcephaly due to impaired neural progenitor proliferation and differentiation. Read doi.org/10.1242/dmm....

The figure shows staining of mouse embryos with X-gal to highlight Ttc21b in whole-mount embryos (panels A-D,H) or after sectioning (panels E-G,I-N). Boxed areas in panel E are shown magnified in panels F and G, boxed areas in panels I and L are shown magnified in panels J and M. Arrows indicate specific areas of lacZ expression.
