#RNATx2026 has kicked off, first with an introduction from co-organizer Phil Zamore and now our first keynote, Xiaowei Zhuang with some gorgeous MERFISH imaging!
What if you could watch chromatin states change inside living neurons.....IN REAL TIME? Repost or share if you or someone you know dreams of this!
The Solecki Lab is building an imaging-based biosensor platform to make chromatin biology visible, measurable, and experimentally testable as neurons mature and wire into brain circuits (see enhancer nucleosomes fluttering below).
We’re looking for an Associate Scientist who wants to do more than run experiments. Someone who wants to help build the framework for seeing how the neuronal genome changes as the brain is built.
Excited to share my lab’s 1st paper—led by two amazing undergrad students—published in MBoC. We present a deep learning approach for yeast cell segmentation that improves image analysis accuracy. Proud of the team with a great start!

Research| Das et al. show that the correct editing activity of the methionyl tRNA synthetase, regulated by AIMP3, is required to prevent the accumulation of homocysteine and resulting cardiomyocyte death and cardiac dysfunction.

Contrary to popular belief, what is important in science is as much its spirit as its product: it is as much the openmindedness, the primacy of criticism, the submission to the unforeseen, however upsetting, as the result, however new that may be.– F Jacob

My lab at Brown University is hiring a postdoctoral fellow! We develop single-molecule imaging technologies to dissect the spatial regulation of gene expression. For more information about my lab, visit https://t.co/iBjwFlNjvd Please help spread the word! #RNA#imaging
"Scientific breakthroughs do not happen in isolation; progress depends on the collective contributions of many. This prize celebrates the work of large communities of scientists over many years."

The proliferation of competing articulations,
the willingness to try anything,
the expression of explicit discontent,
the recourse to philosophy and to debate over fundamentals,
all these are symptoms of a transition from normal to extraordinary research. ― Thomas S. Kuhn
The tragic death of a 28-year-old PhD student at IIT Kanpur is a wake-up call for us all. Mental health and financial stability are crucial for scholars to thrive. We demand systemic changes to support research scholars. @PMOIndia@EduMinOfIndia@dpradhanbjp@DrJitendraSingh
See below for our latest work in @CircAHA! Great job, Charles, and thanks to our wonderful collaborators across the 🌎 for their help getting this story published! @CatMak23#m6A#METTL3
