Kathryn Anderson was a true pioneer–one of the most creative people in Dev Biol. Any one of her achievements–maternal effect mutants, the Toll Pathway, the mouse screens, the work on cilia and Hh signaling–would have made her a giant. This is a sad day for our field!.

I wanted to repost a thread I made about Kathryn Anderson a couple of years ago. I just learned that she died today so I don’t have it in me to say a lot more right now, but she was a really special person and a great scientist.

It has come to my attention that today is Women in Science Day, and I realized I couldn’t let it pass without saying something about the work of my incredible postdoc mentor Kathryn Anderson. My first thread is in honor of her work.
