I was wondering you were familiar with the work of Jan Rainey at Dalhousie University?
His lab has been characterizing the structural characteristics of proteins that spiders produce in their silk.
I am wondering if there would be a way you would be able to find some common interests that might spark collaboration? I know very little about the subject, but it always crosses my mind when I read your posts about your work with spiders.
Anyway, thank you for keeping us all up to date on your work with spiders. My fear of spiders has diminished significantly!

And a “Kiss me, Kate” shirt! And I learned a new word, “synanthropic”. I’ve gotten both a smile and an education and I can’t even read their poster…
If you get the chance and their permission, maybe you could post what they wrote? No reason their research shouldn’t reach the whole world.
