Another fantastic Donald C. Shreffler lecture at the Department of Genetics! This year the lecture features Dr. Harmit Malik who studies genetic conflict, the competition between genes and proteins with opposing functions that drives evolutionary change.
Join us today in Connor Auditorium at 4pm for the 27th Donald C. Shreffler Lecture!
Join @WashUGenetics Shreffler Lecture next Tuesday (May. 13, 4pm CST) in Connor Auditorium when Dr. Harmit Malik presents “Genetic conflicts during meiosis drive the rapid evolution of essential chromatin proteins”, hosted by Dr. Ting Wang @twang5
Congrats!!!
11 years ago I walked across the stage at the 560 Music Center to receive my PhD. Today I returned to the same hall to hood my first PhD student Shujuan Zhao. Full‑circle moment, and I’m so grateful to give back to the place that shaped me. 🎓 #WashU #Hooding @WashUGenetics
