Long overdue... but congratulations Dr. Littleton! He is currently working as a postdoc in Dr. Caren Chang's lab at UMD College Park studying signal transduction of the plant hormone ethylene
New research shows that flavonoids aid in timekeeping in plants by controlling oxidative stress. This adds to our understanding of the plant clock, with potential for improving agriculture

Flavonoids, plant compounds with antioxidant properties, regulate the internal biological clock in Arabidopsis plants by modulating cellular levels of reactive oxygen species.

John, an UG in the lab, was rocking & presenting his poster at the 2025 VT Summer Research Symposium! He won a competitive Fralin SURF fellowship and spent the summer working full-time. His words: "I could have done more because I had a lot of free time." 👊

Scientists are now organizing events, called Stand Up for Science, on 7 March in Washington, D.C., and state capitals.
So far, they have attracted more than 100 volunteers from some 30 states who are hoping to rally support for research as a public good. scim.ag/41jRwd1

Virginia Tech's Cancer Research Center-DC is hosting an Open House on 10/21, 2pm-4pm. This is a great way for prospective MCB students to meet the PIs and learn about their research, and for other attendees to hear about available opportunities for various levels of researchers.
As we survive the boil water notice (due to flood in our area after the hurricane), the paper is finally out⚡️ It almost took us a year since the first submission, but @LinMiaoJuly finally turned the Katherine (UG)'s summer project into a paper😃

New preprint from @LinMiaoJuly is out 🔥
What is your favorite algorithm to detect differential rhythmicity ⁉️

Come work with us!!! We are looking for a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to join our team at Cincinnati Children's Hospital and contribute to cutting-edge research in neuroscience. 1/2
Such an overdue.... but Juan is leaving us to start his Ph.D. journey in the Cortes lab! corteslab.biol.vt.edu/
Good luck Juan! We cannot wait to come to your defense seminar one day 🎊
Ben's PHD work is now published 🤯 "Coordination of rhythmic RNA synthesis and degradation orchestrates 24- and 12-h RNA expression patterns in mouse fibroblasts" Congrats Dr. Unruh 👨🎓
