ALT Presymptomatic dysregulation of alternative splicing in CAG expansion SCAs
ALT Two fruit fly eggs, stylized like designed bags. WT bag is WT egg shaped. Gurken bag shows an AP polarity defect shape, like gurken mutants.

ALT A cartoon of a lego figurine holding lego blocks) proteins in one hand) and holding a rope of lego pieces (mRNA) in the other hand. The figure is under a magnifying glass and next to a fruit fly. Text reads: I look inside bug cells to study how protein making machines (like tiny invisible lego builders) work and how they make people sick when broken.
ALT 3D sand sculpture of the dorsal view of a fruit fly with outstretched wings. The shape stands 6" out of white grey sand and has a 9' wingspan. Red / orange shells make up the eyes, white shells outline the wing veins, and larger brown spotted shells make up the abdominal sections and thorax. Legs are made with sticks.
ALT A side angle view of a fruit fly sand sculpture, with the edge of the beach where it meets an ocean in the background. The sand is white grey, the water is bluish green with sea foam. The perspective shows the large size of the sculpture.
ALT More than 25 marble-sized fruit flies fill a white page. Painted in bright rainbow watercolors, each part of the fly is a different color. Each fly is unique, there are several different wing phenotypes and color combinations.
ALT Snapshot of a digitally-drawn figure showing a late-stage drosophila egg chamber with 2 heads, or two anterior axes, next to a normal wild-type egg chamber for comparison.
