Hi all,
Join us Saturday at 4pm PST for a one time only online class! Must register to get zoom link. https://www.meetup.com/BioCurious/events/270323074/
Hard-core evolutionary genomics research, cheesy PR stunt, or recreational crypto-phylo-mythozoology - pick your own adventure!
The Real Vegan Cheese project at Counter Culture Labs and BioCurious has half-jokingly claimed we can make cheese from any mammal with a sequenced genome - even something as weird as Narwhal. Well, the Narwhal genome just got published. Time to get serious!
In this one-of-a-kind workshop, Patrik will dig into the casein genes that produce the cheese proteins in milk, look at the casein gene cluster in the genome, examine the evolution of narwhals and other whales from other mammals (did you know the closest land mammal to whales is the hippo?), and more.
