A beautiful Western blot that I did with new undergraduate students 🥳
S. pombe nmt1 (81) promoter worked well to repress gene expression 🧐

A few S. pombe strains don’t flocculate 🤔
My favorite mutant doesn’t seem to be great for brewing beer 🤔
My research doesn’t have anything to do with brewing, though 🤔

Tomorrow is the deadline, the office staff told me that the NIH grant application system has been a bit unstable, my brain is also a bit unstable because of sleep deprivation, so I made some agar plates to clear my mind, it seemed to help 🤔

While running last-minute experiments to support my proposal, a student in a neighboring lab said he’d never seen me “doing science” before. I'm sure he meant “doing experiments,” but I do feel I'm “doing science” when I'm doing experiments, rather than working (on science) at a computer🤔
Belated introduction after more than two years on Mastodon 😊
While I post a lot about #Nature, #River, #FlyFishing and #IPA, I use the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe for my research. At some point, I plan to brew #Beer🍺
Did some tetrad dissection of fission yeast (S. pombe) spores on Friday 😊
Today, they are showing pretty colonies 🥳
Tetrad = four spores produced after yeast meiosis

Did some yeast (S. pombe) tetrad dissection 😉
It’s pretty meditating on Friday night after Happy Hour ☺️
Hoping to get some nice results 😊
