Congratulations to Alex and Qi for their paper in mSphere! We showed that siderophores from P. aeruginosa cause epithelial cell damage in ways we've never seen before. https://t.co/VAzG8pFGCn

Had the chance to speak with Dr. Roizen of "You - The Owner's Manual" Podcast about our research on mitochondondrial chemotherapy, had a great time, he's a wonderful interviewer. EP 1109B - Chemotherapies that Target Mitochondria https://t.co/InKrpvXYxz #radiomd #RiceUniversity

Congratulations to our collaborators at MD Anderson and the Institute of Biomedical Chemistry on our recent publication on new treatments we've discovered for treating AML, which were recently published in Leukemia!

This is a wonderful opportunity to share difficult-to-explain techniques that you and your mentees have pioneered to make them more available to the field. We invite you all to join us in making methods more available!

Hyun-Eui Kim and I are inviting all of our colleagues, both in C. elegans and in the wider realm of biology, to submit their methods to a special collection in JoVE on the evaluation of organellar health, dynamics, and interactions!

NHR-49/PPAR-alpha and HLH-30/TFEB cooperate for C. elegans host defense via a flavin-containing monooxygenase https://t.co/u5m6FAAvXc

1 week until #CSISCI2021 and we're really excited for this ECR talk! Dr. Shapiro @ShapiroRebecca is an assistant professor at @uofg that will be sharing a toolkit for CRISPR-based functional genomics in fungal pathogens! ➡️🔖 https://t.co/VC3DuUwIsD

@wyomingwormboy The way that someone explained it to me is that you "use" a Seahorse XF Analyzer when you're testing worm mitochondrial function. If you don't have one, you "utilize" your voice to yell, "How are you doing?" at your worms.

Congratulations to Alex Kang, one of my first graduate students, on being selected for a Lodieska Stockbridge Vaughn Fellowship. Only 5 Rice students (and 3 outside of Humanities) are selected for this award each year. Good job Alex! https://t.co/tfO0kQX80X

[Kirienko Lab @KirienkoLabRice]

I am grateful, and gratified, to say that @RiceUniversity has promoted me to Associate Professor with tenure!

[Kirienko Lab @KirienkoLabRice]

And thank you to Sveta Panina, a very talented postdoc who led the cancer research in my lab. She has moved to her next position, but she just published a great review (with Jingqi Pei, a talented grad student in my lab). https://t.co/IbnwrLukNf

[Kirienko Lab @KirienkoLabRice]

A big thank you to the Murray Lab for our recent collaboration, culminating in the development of our novel C. elegans - E. faecium model system. There's some great potential ahead! https://t.co/9ubRUO3k0j

[Kirienko Lab @KirienkoLabRice]

@wyomingwormboy There's another door to that lab. You know it and I know it. ;)

[Rebecca Shapiro @ShapiroRebecca]

This was such a delightful collaboration!

Big thanks to @KirienkoLabRice for hosting our poor Canadian @sierrarosiana during the summer in Texas 🥵, and @MitacsCanada for funding this exchange

[Kirienko Lab @KirienkoLabRice]

Congratulations to Celine and Nathalie (@ewbank_lab) on our paper together. (Our second international collaboration publication this year!) It was great working with you! https://t.co/E1TiS4UUgL

[Kirienko Lab @KirienkoLabRice]

Congratulations to our coauthors at the Shapiro Lab (@ShapiroRebecca) at the University of Guelph (@uofg) on their recent paper on C. albicans adhesins as virulence determinants. We're happy to continue our collaboration with these elxcellent colleagues! https://t.co/OOJK1CejUV

@JJWatt Someone get JJ Watt a biology textbook. A) Mitochondria is plural, so they are the powerhouse of the cell. B) Mitochondria do a bunch of other things too!

[Kirienko Lab @KirienkoLabRice]

Should editors really be considering citation count as the most important criterion for reviews? Or the amount of new knowledge in a NON-PRIMARY publication? 🤔

[hurryup @ZulvikarU]

Is it ok for Editor to say something like this? I feel attacked @MicrobiomDigest @Thatsregrettab1

[American Cancer Society @AmericanCancer]

It’s #WorldCancerDay. The American Cancer Society honors everyone who has been affected by #cancer. Learn more about how we are raising cancer awareness by encouraging support & action https://t.co/BAQfrvc5y8

Tell us: Who do you honor today?

[Kirienko Lab @KirienkoLabRice]

Congratulations to Alex on the publication of his latest paper! This macrophage model for pyoverdine intoxication is going to be very helpful in our ongoing battle to demonstrate that this siderophore directly damages mammalian cells during infection! https://t.co/Tlq0RAwJxe
