Interviews uncover how altered metabolism affects gene expression rhythms in flies, suggesting broader implications for aging.
First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Seth Lammert is first author on ‘ Increased Glycine-N-methyltransferase expression disrupts light-dependent gene expression rhythms in the Drosophila eye’, published in JCS. Seth is a PhD student in the lab of Vikki Weake at Purdue University, West Lafayette, USA, investigating how altered one-carbon metabolism in aging impacts the circadian clock and methylation reactions in the Drosophila eye.
