Led by graduate student Ellie Lesko, who is now with @bostonsci, we were interested to know more about how AIRE deficiency influences non-melanoma skin cancer development.
@bostonsci By backcrossing the Aire null allele onto the tumor-permissive FVB mouse strain, we found that AIRE-deficient mice developed fewer and smaller skin papillomas. Surprisingly, these papillomas also underwent spontaneous regression!
AN UPDATE -- Marketing & Communications for the Penn State College of Medicine has made a change to move to a standard of using first and last names followed by their credentials when referring to any MD, DO, or PhD. Glad to see that such a simple fix could be quickly adopted.
A disappointment at the least. A macroaggression at the most. Our marketing policy must change if we want to back up our claim of valuing our researchers and their discoveries.
Our Dept is hosting an important session on microaggressions. We will have a diverse panel, including Dr. Ryan Hobbs, a PhD faculty member in the college. But because Dr. Hobbs is a PhD and not MD, he’s listed by our college communications team as simply “Ryan”. Message received.
From Aire loss to hair loss -- I am so proud of this study led by Natella Maglakelidze, a soon-to-be thesis defending MD/PhD student! The story is an excellent example of the scientific method in action. So many new ideas to now pursue! https://t.co/9MME1p7YJT
We are #hiring! Excited to #recruit a #postdoc research fellow to work w/us @DermatologyUW @UWMedicine. Our lab is located @ the lovely #SouthLakeUnion campus in #Seattle, where we benefit from amazing resources & collab opportunities w/@UWISCRM. Join us! https://t.co/zdNwZIgffx
@genehackrman I spent some time designing a construct (in silico) to knock in GFP in frame at the endogenous locus. It isn't all that difficult in theory, but I never got around to ordering it and actually testing in cells.
Does anyone have good recommendations for a protocol or resource for using CRISPR to fluorescently tag an endogenous protein in human/ mammalian cells? TIA!
