Really proud to share the PhD thesis work of Rui Xiao. One day, while using long-read RNA-seq for annotation of the genome, he discovered polycistronic transcripts in Cryptosporidium parvum. Read all about it at:

My husband and inner circle got me good last week! My family, friends, neighbors, colleagues and students truly surprised me with a party at a local brewpub, Akademia. Thank you all so much for your friendship and for sharing this journey.

Honored to speak at the Asian University for Women Mahsa Amini campus in Chittagong, Bangladesh as a guest of the Bioinformatics Club and the American Corner Chattogram. The women and the institutional philosophy are such an inspiration. Look them up.

#crypto2024 I learned last night about the importance of the designation of a Neglected Tropical Disease and how this can aid drug development. @WHO has not (yet) designated Cryptosporidium as an NTD. Probably time to consider.
