Hello everyone!
I hope you are all having an amazing summer experience. As
the summer continues, I have been able to learn many more techniques. Just a
few days ago I learned many new codes for constructing Principal Components Analyses
(PCA) and correlation matrices which will be pivotal for analyzing and
interpreting our many sequencing libraries. Our project is now fully underway
as we have begun to make in-situ hybridizations of genes that we believe are
important early Wnt targets and regulators. The next few weeks in the lab will
without a doubt very long, but nevertheless very exciting. In a few days I will
also be teaching medical students at UCLA how to cut embryos in order to
visualize the germ cell layers during gastrulation. This is exciting because it
gives me an opportunity to branch out and make the research come to life to
students from varying academic backgrounds. So far my summer has been an
amazing one. Until the next time!
Eric
