In this installment of Genetics in Your World, we talk to Dr. Hunter Hill of the University of Montana. He discusses unexpected recent discoveries made while completing his PhD with Dr. Kent Golic at the University of Utah, surrounding new and exciting data about the breakage pattern of chromosomes in Drosophila. He provides advice for others when encountering obstacles during their graduate studies. Check out the paper, "Dicentric chromosome breakage in Drosophila melanogaster is influenced by pericentric heterochromatic and occurs in non-conserved hotspots," published in the June 2023 issue of GENETICS.
