Delineating muscle #insulin signalling in different mouse strains on various diets highlights the utility of studying biological diversity with phosphoproteomics to discover key regulatory mechanisms of complex traits @eLife @davidjamesoz https://t.co/diFZ25tJKf

@GLim2016 Thank you for the offer... 😅 You can make an album~

[Howard Cen @HowardCen]

@JimJohnsonSci It's a wonderful collaboration. Congratulations! 🎉

[Howard Cen @HowardCen]

It's great to know that my first paper (https://t.co/M3SWAlisbr) in @JimJohnsonSci lab got lots of downloads! Or did I download it too many times myself 😂 #TopDownloadedArticle

[Howard Cen @HowardCen]

I'm excited to share our new paper entitled “Human and mouse muscle transcriptomic analyses identify insulin receptor mRNA downregulation in hyperinsulinemia-associated insulin resistance” published on @FASEBorg~ https://t.co/Bw1eafVQO7. A brief summary is below.

@nkrentz @UBC @ubcpharmacy Congrats and welcome back 🎉🎉🎉

[Jim Johnson, PhD @JimJohnsonSci]

Pls RT! There is still time to apply to these faculty positions at the @ubclifesciences , current home to 85 labs. See website for a non exhaustive list of gaps we’d like to fill in our collective expertise. https://t.co/enJP8aCRKP

@HowardCen at #abc2023 with a detailed comparison of human islet transcriptomes and proteomes. Great collaboration with @annagloyn @bcellorg @lenjf . Part of the big project coming from @JelenaK86

[Jim Johnson, PhD @JimJohnsonSci]

Happy to see the 1st product from our wonderful collaboration with the Rideout Lab out in peer-reviewed form. To my knowledge, this is the most comprehensive analysis of the differences between female and male beta cells, which are quite striking. Female cells are more resilient.

@tjstokes5 @metapredict @UofTMDprogram @UofT_DoM Congrats, Tanner!! Very well deserved! 🎉🎉

[Jamie Timmons @metapredict]

Since Lindholm et al 8yr ago RNAseq - applied to human muscle - has produced erroneous data & incorrect claims of superior performance

After great efforts by @tjstokes5 @HowardCen and colleagues we explain some of the why's #MyoTwitter #Transcriptomics

Attention all Islet trainees of @ubclifesciences, @BCDiabResNet, @BCCHresearch, @CIRTNetwork, @UAlberta and @DREAM_trainees !

The 2023 (2022👀) A-BC ISLET WORKSHOP is just around the corner!

Please submit your research abstracts by December 14th. https://t.co/UpeUo5rSby

[Howard Cen @HowardCen]

A great postdoc opportunity to work with a great scientist and mentor. Good salary too!

[Gareth Lim @GLim2016]

Interested in adipocytes, obesity, or Cannabinoid-1 receptors (CB1Rs)?

Are you looking for a postdoc in Jan 2023 (or sooner)?

Then look no further!

Please consider being my colleague in my lab!

2022 Research Trainee Dr. Cen’s research is investigating whether reducing insulin can prevent detrimental effects of high sucrose & identify underlying causes of #obesity & #diabetes. Meet all our 2022 Trainees: https://t.co/mjx5z95aYG

[Peter Overby @PeterOverby4]

Excited and proud to be presenting my work at #EASD2022. I’ll be presenting my work on the targeting of Na+ channels for beta-cell protection and insulin secretion in diabetes. A big thank you to the organizer and @JimJohnsonSci for giving me this opportunity.

[Anni Zhang, Ph.D. @annizubc]

So excited and honored to get the opportunity to present my study at #EASD2022, @EASDnews. Welcome to attend all @JimJohnsonSci lab's talks and my talk "Insulin receptors in pancreatic acinar cells contribute to pancreatic cancer development" is on Wed, Sep 21, SO76, 1:15-2:15pm.

[Jim Johnson, PhD @JimJohnsonSci]

Jamie will present his work on beta-cell heterogeneity/states based on Ins1 gene expression. Very cool study.
