The barriers and ramifications of reporting sexual misconduct are still prohibitively high. We will not see lasting change until the majority in positions of power—not just exceptional brave individuals—actively support and protect those harmed. Silence is part of the problem.

I admire Kay Tye for leading by example with her outspoken support and advocacy in this situation. We need more people like her.

Thrilled to share our lab's first paper in which we establish genome-wide CRISPR screening within a single mouse! We are so excited about the power of this platform to enable high-throughput genetic dissection of diverse phenomena within a living mammal.

Hello #ScienceMastodon! I am an assistant professor in the MIT Department of Biology with our lab based at the Koch Institute. We build tools for high-throughput functional genomics in mice in order to understand and modulate regenerative capacity across mammalian tissues.
