Dr. Lucy Shan successfully defended her Ph.D. on Wednesday, November 25 virtually via zoom. Her thesis project identified possible novel roles of RNA binding proteins involved in blood cell development and in the development of moss using high throughput sequencing and proteomic data. Congratulations Dr. Shan!
Updated Publications List
Sorry for the long delay!! The Publications list of the Gregory Lab has now been updated to encompass all of the most recent articles, reviews, and book chapters from the lab!!
Our new Review Article available now!
Our new Review Article describing the recent analyses on RNA secondary structure and RBP-RNA interactions in Arabidopsis is now published in WIREs RNA!! Congrats to Marianne and Shawn on a really nice article. This article can be found at the following link.
This article was also highlighted, and the highlight document can be found at the following link for those interested!

Manuscript describing our genome-wide Topoisomerase cleavage assay published
Our collaborative study where we and the Felix lab developed a high-throughput sequencing-based approach for mapping TOP2A cleavage on a genome-wide scale is now online at Genome Research. This was a true labor of love to get this study to completion, but I could not be happier to have this assay finally published!
