Very proud of my students Monica Reeves (⁦@emorygmb⁩) and Saahj Gosrani (@neurophd_emory) for winning best poster and best talk at the Emory University Division of Biological and Biomedical Sciences annual symposium!

If Nature and Science journals both agree on this, surely there is at least a 60% chance it is true. https://t.co/3RB9oCUmUG

Congratulations!

[Emory Genetics and Molecular Biology @emorygmb]

Congrats to GMB’s @Yemko_Pryor from the Lindo lab for receiving the Kharen Fulton Graduate Diversity Award from @laneygradschool for outstanding contributions to enhance DEI

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Can’t decide if you want to go to a liberal arts college or a research university? Why not do both? Come to ⁦@EmoryUniversity⁩ and spend your first two years ⁦@EmoryOxford⁩

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Very excited to be hosting Oliver Hobert (not on here) from @Columbia with @angalus_d and @BrainJZhou to give to talk about Neuro in C. elegans and participate in class with the @emorygmb students

[LeritLab @LabLerit]

Come be my colleague!

The Dept of Cell Biology @EmoryUniversity is recruiting a developmental cell biologist.

🔬Do you study mechanisms of development using cell biological (and other) approaches? Join us!🔬

TY for RT!

Congratulations Mary! Can’t think of anyone who is more supportive of other scientists than you. Well deserved.

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

You are very welcome. Thanks for coming!

[A. Sánchez Alvarado @Planaria1]

Wrapping up a great Genetics and Molecular Biology Program Retreat

Students and faculty talks covered a broad swath of the life sciences from structural biology to vaccines

And the gamut of opening songs matched the diverse interests

Thank you @Katz_Lab for the invitation and to the GMBP community for the warmth hospitality during my visit

@EmoryUniversity @lanierislands

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Excited to be hosting @Planaria1 as our @emorygmb annual retreat keynote speaker!

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Very excited for my student ⁦@Juantanna⁩ for being @emorygmb graduate program student of the year! From Puerto Rico to scientific giant, what an incredible road. I am so proud to have mentored such a fabulous scientist!

[Jason Sheltzer @JSheltzer]

Another scientist whose work initially didn't get the recognition that it deserved - Victor Ambros was denied tenure at Harvard, even after publishing the seminal work that resulted in him receiving the Nobel Prize today!

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Great honor for the germ cell community to be able to salute Gary and Victor at the #cshlgermcells

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Well worth the short listen. Congratulations to Victor and Gary, C. elegans scientists and really all basic scientists!

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

“Have you been getting calls from Sweden?”

Victor Ambros’ son woke his up this morning with a surprising question. We speak to Ambros about his first reactions after being awarded the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

It was great to host @YinShenLab for a seminar and to sit in on class with the @emorygmb students. Amazing what we learn when writing truly functionally characterize GWAS variants. @angalus_d @BrainJZhou

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Come be part of our amazing Emory University epigenetics community! If you have any questions feel free to DM me.

Emory Biology @emorycollege is hiring! We invite applications for a tenure track Asst Prof position in the area of epigenetics, including chromatin biology, nuclear organization, cellular differentiation, development, and/or gene regulation. Please share!

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

It was really amazing to host @KonopkaLab at Emory University for a seminar and to sit in on class with our @gmbstudents this week. Fabulous seminar and insightful discussion of the science with our students. Thanks! @BrainJZhou @angalus_d

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Congratulations Teresa!

[Teresa Lee @snickclunk]

📢It's a big milestone for the Lee lab - our very first preprint!!! 🥳
Grad student @a_deepshi led a team of undergrads to ask how germ cells handle DNA damage with nucleosomes crowding the way 🚨

@snickclunk The undergrad did it in the cold room with the pipetman!

[David Katz @Katz_Lab]

Nice!
