Grateful to share our most recent paper--just published in @CellReports. The study was led by @NDBios PhD student @Schofield_isle, who will be defending his dissertation later this week. Also want to highlight @NotreDame senior and @NDXCTF athlete @EmmaAlbano4 as a co-author!
Our latest paper with Joan @BruggeMe is now out @NatureGenetics! We explore hidden mechanisms of BRCA1 hereditary breast cancer using new mouse models, revealing unexpected tumor-like chromatin changes in Brca1-heterozygous normal mammary cells.

Microglia are considered long lived, but @cssmity &co show that individual embryonic #microglia die within 3 days after clearing neural debris and are cannibalized by existing microglia, paradoxically leading to additional microglial death #PLOSBiology https://t.co/KS2feqiTTy
Microglia can selectively clear neurons, but what else do they eat? @FChrisBennett & @nachoriko explore a #PLOSBiology study showing that #microglia also cannibalize other microglia, followed by microglial necroptosis Primer: https://t.co/HPmowIQUDh Paper: https://t.co/KS2feqiTTy
Please RT and help us get the word out. Scott Dixon @sjd956 and I are co-organizing the first @FASEBorg#Ferroptosis conference this summer! Awesome line up of speakers and room for additional short talks! Save the date & come join us July 27 - 31, 2025! 🤩https://t.co/VlV9L3kxx1
#NASmember Joan Brugge has advanced #breastcancer research in two major ways: through her studies of the processes in breast cancer's initiation and progression, and her explorations of how cellular receptors regulate the intracellular cytoskeleton. #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth
There is no such thing as a perfect leader.
In fact, if someone claims to be a perfect leader, they are probably not even a good leader, as they lack the self-awareness needed to seek out feedback and continue to grow and improve.
Congrats to Matt on this new role! His deep expertise and thoughtful demeanor was integral in working with many of us in @NDBios to launch a new introductory biology course sequence for @NotreDame students. @ieiatnd is in good hands!!
Congratulations to our founding director, Matt Kloser, on being named the new Hackett Family Director of Notre Dame's Institute for Educational Initiatives (IEI) 👏🏻

Celebrated Father Bob’s inauguration as the 18th president of @NotreDame with colleagues/friends in @NDBios@NDScience. Excited for the future under his leadership!
Thoughtful piece by @FrezzaLab here---recommended reading for all in science in any career and at any career stage! Thanks for sharing your wisdom Christian.
When I meet other scientists, we more often discuss how to cope with failure rather than to achieve success. So I wrote this piece. I'd love to hear your views.
