Last year Juyeon Hong described a new domain in 9+2 cilia called the EDT, the extreme distal tip. Now, she's found a new protein required for its assembly, but only in non-mammalian vertebrates.

For you youngsters who might not know, among her decades of fantastic discoveries was this thing she found in 1981 that she called "Embryonic Stem Cells." I think some people still study them.
