This announcement is many months overdue, but I'm just as excited to finally share it. I'll be joining UT Southwestern as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Cell Biology and the O'Donnell Brain Institute! The Benedetti Lab opens in December 2026! 🧠🔬

Thrilled to see this published today! Truly special because we made the initial discovery >15 yrs ago! We found two copies of a human gene called BC200 embedded in a human poxvirus. BC200 blurs the line between gene & transposon—both functional & mutagenic! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🧵1/n

New preprint! TLDR: We mapped the genetic architecture of neonatal vocalization in deer mice, and found candidate genes expressed in the cerebellum that could be contributing to the evolution of temporal structure in infant cries #Bioacoustics #neuroskyence www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
