Grant success to continue yeast Ty collaboration with Garfinkel Lab The Bergman Lab received very good news that our NIH R01 on the “Evolution of Retrotransposon Control Mechanisms” was recently awarded. This project will allow us to continue our very fruitful collabo...

Very grateful to be able continue a very fruitful collaboration with David Garfinkel’s Lab on how new transposon control mechanisms evolve in the genus Saccharomcyes.
