Research Rabbit

LEGE — Fri, 07 Apr 2023 12:01:33 -0500

You’re determined students, passionate teachers, and inspired creators of everything we know! Yet, all the researchers we spoke with over the past year uncovered the same reality:

Despite the degrees you’ve earned, the effort and passion you put in every day, the sacrifices you make – academia burdens you with tons of stressors. Financial, psychological, physical, and more.

We’re an unconventional team with backgrounds in various fields – both inside and outside of academia. And through our lens, it’s clear that academia deeply undervalues and underserves its very own community!

It’s time to reimagine research.

The Genome 10K Project

Tue, 29 Jul 2014 09:11:04 -0500

https://genome10k.soe.ucsc.edu The Genome 10K project aims to assemble a genomic zoo—a collection of DNA sequences representing the genomes of 10,000 vertebrate species, approximately one for every vertebrate genus. The trajectory of cost reduction in DNA sequencing suggests that this project will be feasible within a few years. Capturing the genetic diversity of vertebrate species would create an unprecedented resource for the life sciences and for worldwide conservation efforts. The growing Genome 10K Community of Scientists (G10KCOS), made up of leading scientists representing major zoos, museums, research centers, and universities around the world, is dedicated to coordinating efforts in tissue specimen collection that will lay the groundwork for a large-scale sequencing and analysis project.
