Incredibly honored to receive this recognition of our lab’s work on KRAS(G12C) especially @JonathanOstrem and Ulf Peters who teamed up to drug the undruggable. Thanks @frankpmccormick for introducing me to the beating heart of cancer. @UCSFCancer @HHMINEWS @KRASKickers

[Kamyar Yazdani @kamyaryzd]

Thanks Oliver! We owe this work to the great training we received at NCI! NCI is a wonderful place to get trained!

How different are self and nonself? After long years of thinking about this question, excited to share our (surprising?) findings! https://t.co/ATPY2yQDvi

[Student Researchers United-UAW @sruuaw]

SRs and ASEs have reached tentative agreements! The base wage increases in the tentative agreements are higher than the last 20 years of base wage increases combined. When we strike, we WIN.

[Alan Attie Lab @AttieLab]

https://t.co/ZY1zxvYgOH I pay tribute to my former teacher, present colleague, and friend, Tom Record, on the last day of his 50 years teaching a legendary course in Physical Chemistry. Here, he shows what was known 50 years ago about binding of RNA polymerase to DNA.

[Arc Institute @arcinstitute]

A new study @ScienceMagazine from the Gilbert lab at Arc Institute (@LukeGilbertSF) & the Shokat lab @UCSF (@kevansf) uncovers how large linked drug molecules enter our cells to reach their targets, expanding possibilities for future therapeutics. https://t.co/EO0JqlQxfZ
