almost 2 months in!

The lab opened its doors on January 3rd and 56 days in it’s already starting to look like a lab! Albeit with a couple of false starts – including all 82 fly stocks from Bloomington dead on arrival x____X, luckily the second order arrived last Friday and everyone looks alive and healthy!

day 56

There are still countless reagents and pieces of equipment to order but the lab’s confocal arrives this week!

Also – here is our ad for a research scientist [update: hired!] please apply spread the word or apply if interested! If you’ll be at the annual fly meeting in Chicago (March 1-5) or NW Dev Bio (Mar 15-18) meeting  – say hi to Claudia!
