Oyster paper

FINISH IT!

Crab Paper

I’m assuming we’ll be getting reviewer comments soon…? So if those get in, then I’ll likely be working on addressing those with the other authors.

For Jackie Padilla-Gamino lab:

I’ve started extracting RNA from O. lurida larvae and am almost done
Then I’ll move on to the 40 tissue samples from adult O. lurida
I’ve spoken with the sequenicng facility we’ll be sending the samples to and they want the samples (n = 56) in a 96-well plate, at least 25ul of volume per sample, and the Qubit and Nanodrop readouts for each. They also recommended spot-checking some on the BIoanalzyer, though they’ll be doing that as well before library prep and sequencing.

Crab samples in -80:

I’ve begun organizing and condensing the boxes of hemolymph samples - I’m making spreadsheets of the contents of the boxes. I’m almost done with the samples, but haven’t started sorting through and organizing the extracted RNA that’s in there

Main thing is that I got a lot of things started, and this month I’m hoping to finish them!
