I study floppy proteins and teach students who are incarcerated |

[Matthew Ryan King @MattKingLab]

Floppy protein phase separates to make microtubules grow off each other super efficiently. (Shameless self promotion 🙃) https://t.co/EUEWum1mts

Congratulations to @DanaFarber's Cigall Kadoch, PhD, (@CKadoch) who was named as the Laureate of the Blavatnik National Awards for Young Scientists today. The prestigious award from @BlavatnikAwards and @NYASciences (cont) https://t.co/eGr7a5hkkQ

@MatthewKraushar @PappulabWashU Thanks @MatthewKraushar ! Love the metaphor - I still refer to the FC (the innermost phase) as the North Pole of the nucleolus

[WashU Biomedical Engineering @WashUBME]

Congratulations to Avnika Pant on receiving a scholarship & invitation to attend the @MBLScience Physiology program this summer!

This selective and intensive program is one of the oldest continually running biology courses.

Avnika is a doctoral student with @PappulabWashU.

🔥🔥How does the LINE-1 retrotransposon jump around in the human genome? Super excited to present my postdoctoral work answering this published today @Nature
together with twitterless Kathy Collins's lab and @NogalesLab @UCBerkeley

Congrats to @sophiembtravis and team from @RuiZhangWUSTL and @LabPetry on the augmin structure! Also congrats to @PfefferCryoLab and @lchangpurduebio for their structural work!

[Matthew Ryan King @MattKingLab]

@ParalkarLab Perfect encapsulation!

[BökeLab @LabBoke]

Have you wondered how a decades-old oocyte can give rise to a new embryo while other cells in the body age? Our study @Nature, spearheaded by @AidaRoNu, uncovers the mechanism that allows early #oocytes to maintain ROS-free #mitochondria https://t.co/eVQfeRWmVq🧵

@PappulabWashU A vibrant, happy, and productive family!

@CraigSPearson @RaxKingIsDead Yikes! Can @RaxKingIsDead make an exception for a fellow monarch?

@feric_marina Congrats Marina!

[Vladimir Volkov 🇺🇦 @microtubule_guy]

Happy to present a new preprint from @MarileenD’s lab, in which we ask if a microtubule plus-end tracking comet is held together by interactions that also drive phase separation. The answer is not a clear ‘yes’ or ‘no’, so here goes the 🧵1/10

You Were Duped Into Saying Yes. Is That Still Consent? https://t.co/MkpPdrgBfI

[Craig Pearson @CraigSPearson]

At some point you have to admit that doing things ironically can have very straightforward consequences. #FakeAccountsClub @laurenoyler

Why am I "the only person who can see the true essence of this book?" Any thoughts @laurenoyler?

[Matthew Ryan King @MattKingLab]

@LabPetry @SagarSetru @shaevitz Congrats Sagar! The @LabPetry birds will always fondly remember their home nest.

[Sabine Petry @LabPetry]

Beautiful work officially out by @SagarSetru, Bernardo deGouveia, Josh @shaevitz and Howard Stone - a tri-departmental @Princeton collaboration. What do drops on spiderwebs and protein droplets on microtubules have in common? #PhaseSeparation on Cellular Surfaces

[Matthew Ryan King @MattKingLab]

Jenny and Emmy are great collaborators
