Science in Cinci: MicroRNAs Contribute to Lake Malawi Cichlid Diversity
http://scienceincinci.blogspot.com/2011/03/micrornas-contribute-to-lake-malawi.html
Sunday, March 20, 2011. MicroRNAs Contribute to Lake Malawi Cichlid Diversity. Genetics of Adaptation Graduate Seminar. Author: Bethany A. Stahl. Though the data presented by Loh et al. (2010) is intriguing, how does it relate to questions of genetic evolution and species diversity? Loh et al. (2010) also identified one target site that is very similar between cichlids and stickleback fish. This site is associated with a. Polymorphism in Lake Malawi cichlids. Genome Biology and Evolution.

The House Finance Guy Game | MarsIAm
https://marsiam.wordpress.com/2011/04/27/the-house-finance-guy-game
April 27, 2011. The House Finance Guy Game. The guy who helped us finance our home was a jackass. I would not recommend anybody ever work with him, ever. Once he’s got you by the metaphorical balls and time is ticking, it becomes a sliding scale as to whether you should cut and run vs sit it out. Having chosen the latter, we became accustomed to his bad behavior. Don’t like your finance guy? See how many points you can rack up using our system. Bonus if they are not funny. Bonus if he blames the economy.

July 20, 2012. Here’s some stuff that I could have possibly inherited from my grandmother-in-law. Reader beware. A spindly floral table. Didn’t already have one of these. Can we say, professionalization? I believe I can fly. What does our stuff tell us about our culture? Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Science in Cinci: Adaptation to cold climate in the woolly mammoth
http://scienceincinci.blogspot.com/2011/03/adaptation-to-cold-climate-in-woolly.html
Sunday, March 20, 2011. Adaptation to cold climate in the woolly mammoth. Genetics of Adaptation Graduate Seminar. Woolly mammoths are iconic animals in North American and Eurasian lore. Paintings of these amazing animals line caves dating back over 10,000 years, and their ivory has been used to create figurines as long as 35,000 years ago. Woolly mammoths, now extinct, lived during the last ice age and were well adapted to cold environments. Hemoglobin is the protein responsible for such transport. ...

Science in Cinci: Of Mice and Mountains
http://scienceincinci.blogspot.com/2011/03/of-mice-and-mountains.html
Friday, March 25, 2011. Of Mice and Mountains. What happens on a biochemical level to allow organisms to persist in such alpine environments? In ideal conditions, that is, at sea level, oxygen concentration is approximately 21%, which, in healthy individuals, saturates hemoglobin. Hemoglobin represents a likely source of variation underlying altitude adaptations to low and high elevations as it is directly linked to oxygen transportation and utilization. This idea was extensively investigated in the ...

Sunday, March 20, 2011. Belugas and Llamas: Living in Thin Air. Genetics of Adaptation Graduate Seminar. One normally does not think of llamas and beluga whales in the same sentence; they look very different and one lives in the ocean whereas the other in the Andes Mountains. Nonetheless, they have adapted to low-oxygen environments in much the same fashion. Llamas belong to the camel family and are divided into 4 species, llama, alpaca, guanaco, and vicuña, all in the genus. In it’s blood would in...
