Genome-wide response of seaside sparrows to oil

The following is an interactive visualization of the differentially expressed genes in seaside sparrows exposed to oil from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Genes are classified based on Categories, and then into more specific Biological Functions or Diseases they are associated with. 

Toxic effects of oil exposure

The same genes as in the previous visualization are also predicted to be related to a number of Toxicity Functions, again based on the Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (Qiagen) "knowledgebase".

Interested in joining the lab?

I'm always interested in talking about the research interests of undergraduate and prospective graduate (MSc) students, and their potential to join the lab. New opportunities frequently arise, so feel free to get in touch. However, before you do that have a look at my research interests, and the list of publications, to form a sense of the type of research that we conduct in the lab, and if it matches your own interests.
