Meet Mary Engle Pennington! As the first female lab chief in the US Food and Drug Administration, she pioneered safe handling of perishable foods, like milk!
Thanks to her, we can safely enjoy treats at the #CornellDairyBar! #WomenInScience#microbiology#engineering#EYH2025
Hi!! This will be a long one but please stay with me! After 3 years doing talks for Puerto Rican undergraduates, high and middle school students talking, about environmental sciences, biology and topics surrounding my research work, I was asked to formalize my efforts. (1/?)
It was a pleasure working with @PopoMicro on this review of CRISPR-Cas associated transposons (CAST). Hopefully it gives a sense for the diversity of Tn7-like transposons and CRISPR systems that independently combined.https://t.co/Aq8lz2HG3O

This story involved many hands over many years led by @BertCorrea3 and @SaadleeS. Novel mechanisms of diversity generation in Acinetobacter baumannii resistance islands driven by Tn7-like elements https://t.co/zTcJniK1YV
Video shows tomogram of an endosome in vps13Δ cells. Sho Suzuki (@ShoSuzuki20) @CornellMBG et al propose that Vps13 may play a critical role in supplying #lipids to #endosomes, ensuring continuous ESCRT-mediated sorting during MVB biogenesis. https://t.co/Q5SYHcvo9b

So stoked to be sharing this! New proteomics map of human subcellular architecture. CRISPR + organelle IP mass spec at scale. Check out pre-print https://t.co/OLlf1LYyud and https://t.co/Gb1TvlKcCH. 🙌 to fantastic team @czbiohub SF & collabs! 1/2
Great to have @andrewjvarble as visiting speaker at Cornell Microbiology @CornellMicrobio. The Peters lab took him out to lunch before sending him back to @UofR
Amid antisemitic threats and increased tensions on campus, classes will be canceled on Friday, Nov. 3 to serve as a “community day.”
