Support Our Work

Student Publications

In addition to our traditional publications, GEP students and their faculty mentors are publishing in microPublication.org, which publishes brief articles on research findings presented in a single figure to rapidly disseminate experimentally sound results to the community. For a full list of GEP microPublication articles, see the “Micropublications” page.

Beta Version of Pathways Project Walkthrough is Live

We are very excited to release the beta version of the newest piece of GEP curriculum, the Pathways Project: Annotation Walkthrough! Katie has been working really hard to bring this into being. We appreciate the indispensable help from the GEP members who shared with us their own curriculum and personal observations and piloted our earlier drafts. This walkthrough illustrates how to apply the GEP annotation strategy for the Pathways Project to construct a gene model for the Ras homolog enriched in brain (Rheb) gene in Drosophila yakuba.
