The Hockemeyer Lab & collabs (@BateupLab) are thrilled to share the first pre-print of the @ASAP_Research project! We present a pipeline to introduce Parkinson-related mutations by PRIME EDITING in human pluripotent stem cells at high efficiency ๐คฏ๐งฌ https://t.co/hWCJcfcGC6
Happy to share the first pre-print from @ASAP_Research Team Rio! We show that prime editing (developed by @davidrliu and co.) can efficiently and precisely introduce or repair Parkinson's-associated mutations in human stem cells for disease modeling.

Incredibly excited to officially join the @igisci as a principal investigator! Thankful for the support from friends, family, mentors and collaborators who helped get me here! Also humbled to be neighbors with phenomenal PIs @UrnovFyodor , @RossWilsonLab , @pdhsu & @doudna_lab !
Are you interested in functional genomics screening? ๐งฌโ๏ธ
Would you like to make and study organoids? ๐ง
Or exploring the potential of stem cells? ๐งซ
You can do this and all of these together @HockemeyerLab. We are looking for postdocs to join our group!
Hey! Our lab @berkeleyMCB is hiring! SRA position now available as a lab manager/tissue culture support ๐ฌ๐งซ.

Great article from our trainee @jmboyle510 examining the role of TPP1 in telomere length set point regulation #TPP1#BerkeleyMCB#telomere https://t.co/CQl7QyIB3Q
Sharing this @BerkeleyNews article about @berkeleyMCB's recent ASAP grant awards. Our team is currently recruiting a project manager, post-docs, and technicians to work in one of the 5 labs.
$14 million boost for Parkinson's research https://t.co/rskgjdtKV1 via @ucberkeley
We are thrilled to be part of an ASAP funded project to decipher the functional genetics of Parkinson's disease in human brain organoids and mouse models. 5 lab collaboration with @HockemeyerLab, @LukeGilbertSF, Don Rio, and Frank Soldner. We are recruiting! More info soon.
We are so happy to share our blueprint on how to establish a pop-up lab for #SARSCoV2 testing now out on @NatureBiotech
Congratulations to the teams @igisci and @berkeleyMCB. We are all in this together! ๐ช๐ป๐ #BeatCOVID19
The scientists who power the pipeline that powers the testing lab: @JRo_Hamilton @enrique_lins @AbbyLabbyUC @connortsuchida all @doudna_lab + Dirk @HockemeyerLab
Robots are only as good as the people who control them. By that criterion our robots are BRILLIANT. @berkeleyMCB
Congrats to MCB Prof Jennifer Doudna on receiving an Inspire Award for transforming @UCBerkeley lab space to process #COVID19#SARSCoV2 tests. https://t.co/VPuIRyQ6FE via @SFBusinessTimes
