For #SeeingDiversity, we’re featuring Dr. Jay Brito Querido @Jayquerido! Jay’s lab focuses on studying mechanisms that regulate mRNA translation. This illustration by @torrez_rach shows Jay’s recent studies of a second eIF4A helicase at the mRNA entry site of the 48S Complex.
In her spare time, @neuromixologist likes to hike, run, xc-ski and generally get out there and explore our fascinating natural world in the company of friends and family.
Thanks for this great collaboration @FrancheskaLR and @neuromixologist!
@neuromixologist is a postdoctoral research fellow studying serotonin circuits in the laboratory of Susan Dymecki in the Department of Genetics @harvardmed. She also organizes the Genetics Triads Mentoring Group and is a current EDI committee member.
For #SeeingDiversity, we're featuring Dr. Yasmin Escobedo Lozoya @neuromixologist! This illustration by @FrancheskaLR shows that cells in the intermediate lateral septum are a place of convergence of info dictating the actions an animal takes based on past context, reward & cost
.@MargotRiggi and I are excited to release "Phase Separation 101," a visual resource for undergrad teaching. Check it out here: https://t.co/gTP4KZyqfi and many thanks to the researchers and educators who gave us their invaluable feedback! A short preview below:
Jessica is a @NSFGRFP & @BioXFEL fellow, 4th year PhD student in the Biology Department @uprrp_biology@uprrp. She works w @josarc@TheJARMlab. She is also the president of the Assoc of Graduate Students of Biology. Francheska Lopez Rivera created this illustration of her work.
We're excited to feature Jessica M. Rodríguez-Rios from the University of Puerto Rico Río Piedras for #SeeingDiversity! She studies how cardiac transcription factor complexes bind the regulatory genome. Jessica has determined the DNA binding ‘grammar’ of the NKX2-5:TBX5 complex.
