Weird results from CRISPR/Cas9 Homology Directed Repair (HDR) based genome editing? We show that frequently the HDR template vector becomes incorporated into the genome causing all sorts of problems. For #Drosophila, we develop a vector to detect these unwanted events

Apply to now for an open PhD position working on motor neuroscience in our laboratory. We investigate motor system synapse and circuit function in #Drosophila and apply our models to understand human motor system dysfunction during ageing and in the disorders #ALS, #FTD and #SMA.
