It was a great pleasure presenting our latest preprint (https://t.co/hFjTAdt8oW) today @UCSF which is now in press @JoVEJournal. Grateful to the wonderful infectious diseases research community in the Bay Area.

The @pewtrusts have chosen to highlight professor Clarissa Nobile, UC Mercedโs first Pew biomedical research fellow. You can read more about her research and fellowship here: ๐ https://t.co/Ke7HVa1Xjd
Prof. Shahar Sukenik is among this year's recipients of the @SloanFoundation research fellowship, the first faculty member on our campus to receive this award, for his research into intrinsically disordered proteins.
Learn more about his work here ๐ https://t.co/y8wE8Uoy7j
๐It's finally out!! We show that intramolecular interactions in IDPs are strong enough to hold in the cell, but flexible enough to respond to cellular volume changes. A labor of love of many people, mainly recent graduate @david_c_moses and @the_KarinaG. https://t.co/4OePFPyaYD
...and today the second Ph.D. defense from the lab!! @david_c_moses will talk about how disordered proteins can act as sensors of their environment. Welcome to join at 12:30 PST via zoom https://t.co/BDoZw5HDLr
Interested in understanding how and why IDRs matter for cellular function?
@BBKrage and I took a deep dive into this question and โ with excellent feedback and critiques from colleagues & our amazing editor โ put together our perspective on this: https://t.co/kmaC3Zhp3R
VALLEY FEVER: Possibility of an upcoming human vaccine for coccidioidomycosis is exciting. Workshop tomorrow on the vaccine (will talk about vaccine hesitancy in this era & how think vaccine uptake will be high among those at risk for this fungal pathogen)
