For lab meeting this week we generated graphical methods for @EG_Microbio's firefly microbiome paper. Here's a sample. Field + bench + sequence crunching FTW!
Last but certainly not least, we have Sarah Bain presenting a talk at #SICB2020 ! "Using environmental factors to predict the emergence patterns of Firefly species in Pennsylvania." 8:30am to 8:45am Lone Star H Check out her awesome work!
#SICB2020 is in full swing! Check out Hahn Tran (P1-51) and @LourencoMartin7 (P1-94) at the poster session today to learn about odorant receptor genes in fireflies, as well as @HeitzmanNellie (P1-272) to learn about the gut microbiome in predatory fireflies! @SICBtweets
In recognition of National Coming Out Day, #Bucknellians came together to celebrate difference — in all its forms, shapes and colors — by creating a human rainbow! #rayBucknell 🌈
What better way to celebrate a birthday than with a blue ghost firefly cake? Happy (early) birthday to our fearless leader @seslower !!
Congratulations to our student, Hanh Tran, for winning the travel award to attend the ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics! Way to go! #acmbcb
Love #fireflies? Join me & @seslower of @LowerLab at @BucknellU as we dive into their ✨wondrous world✨ with @iraflatow on tomorrow's Science Friday! @scifri @TuftsUniversity @TuftsBUGS #scicomm #fireflytwitter
@LowerLab @g_pask @Sci_Chey And check out Thomas’ poster presentation on our #collaboration — looking at the #chemistry of firefly communication! #svurs
