What better time to see a story like this than when 4,000 miles from home. Like I don’t already lose sleep over the thought of something like this happening?

A university janitor who turned off a freezer after hearing multiple “annoying alarms,” ruined more than 20 years of research, according to a lawsuit filed against his employer by Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in upstate New York cnn.it/3CVdW7b



Worms in the wild: Spotted at the Three Judges, Glasgow. Grab a pint and have a seat on you favorite Dpy-5 stool!

Hello…? Hello…? Is this twitter thing still working? Anyone still out there? Of course you are! We are looking forward to seeing all of our worm friends in Glasgow! We plan to be available during poster sessions so come find us near the Worm Art exhibits!


Glow Worms is an undergraduate research initiative that has already contributed dozens of endogenously-tagged strains to the CGC collection. You can help give these young researchers the opportunity to present their work this summer at #Worm23 !

Our fundraiser to send Glow Worms undergrads to Glasgow has launched! Your donation would definitely make some amazingly nerdy undergrads very happy. THANK YOU for any support! Including shares! #GlasGlow23 hornraiser.utexas.edu/project/34854



Taking the CGC on the road for a career night/student engagement event at my son’s middle school. Kids have so far all agreed that worms are “cool” when observing through the scopes.

Glow Worms is an initiative at UT-Austin to introduce young students to hands-on, cutting edge molecular biology, and are using their efforts to help support others in the community. We're glad to help make your strains accessible through the CGC!

We would love to recruit some mentors from the community. If you identify as Black/African or Hispanic/Latinx, are a faculty member at a PUI or a grad student anywhere, and we could create knock-in worms that will benefit your research and the community, please reach out to us!

We’re happy to welcome Juan, the newest member of the CGC staff! Relocating from Florida to Minnesota in January might not seem appealing to some people, but Juan wasn’t going to be deterred by a little snow and cool temps.

Beautiful morning in Minneapolis. Yeah, it’s -17F (-22C), but it’s quiet, calm, and there is a cool fog of sparkly ice crystals in the air.
