We’re thrilled to see our artistic rendition of the keratin intermediate filament cytoskeleton highlighted on the cover of @Dev_Cell along with our paper!

New paper from @SimpsonLabUW @DermatologyUW is online @JCI_insight🍾We found ERK hyperactivation disrupts cell-cell adhesion in epidermis, linked this pathway to both drug-induced & spontaneous Grover disease & identified MEK inhibition as a novel therapy: https://t.co/Ko48RnTxNp
I'm excited to announce that I am on the job market for tenure-track Assistant Professor positions in cell biology, with a focus on the integrated roles of keratin filaments and organelle biology!
Please feel free to reach out, share/RT🔁!
Excited to share our review @theJIDJournal on #blistering disorders #Darier#HaileyHailey & #Grover disease. All cause acantholysis/severing of #desmosomes w/epidermal "breaks" but have no approved Tx. We explore pathogenic mechanisms & novel Tx strategies https://t.co/pTJbre3ywW
Incredibly proud to announce that @JessicaLeeAyers passed her General Exam @UWM3D@UWMedicine to officially become the 1st PhD candidate from @SimpsonLabUW. Thanks to @DermatologyUW for celebrating with us!🥳🍾🥂👩🔬🧫🔬

Headed home from @SocInvestDerm mtg #SID2024. To say I’m proud of this grp isn’t enough. They represented @SimpsonLabUW@UWISCRM @DermatologyUW so well. Three talks delivered w/such precision & poise (meanwhile I was a nervous wreck). Handled questions like pros #ProudPI#LuckyPI
If you know anyone afflicted by @RareDiseases you know how difficult it is. Even worse when treatment is denied by @CMSGov. During appeals, which are often rejected, diseases can have irreversible consequences. Ask your Rep to support the PROTECT Rare Act: https://t.co/SOFFw0IhF0
The Nanes Lab is opening this Fall at @UTSWDerm and the Green Center for Systems Biology @LHBioinf_UTSW. We’re recruiting! Be on the lookout for official job postings soon. https://t.co/1CNwLqNmnc
To enter the raffle for Dr. Nelson's new book, either retweet this tweet or email us at [email protected]. We'll randomly select 3 winners and send you a copy. Limited to domestic US and Canada only (sorry!!!). https://t.co/BfhTRL4TaN
Thrilled to share the 1st @SimpsonLabUW research publication online @JCI_insight. We generated a pre-clinical model of Darier disease, a rare genetic skin blistering disorder that I see in my clinic and for which there are no FDA-approved therapies (1/7)

Congrats to Reteeka for representing @SimpsonLabUW @DermatologyUW at UW Undergraduate Research Symposium! Busy poster w/lots of interest in #dermatology research on using #AI to analyze microscopy images of keratinocyte differentiation & epidermal pathology 🤩🔬
Fantastic talk @ISID2023Tokyo from @UWM3D student Jess Ayers representing @SimpsonLabUW @DermatologyUW. Exciting to present our new cell/organoid model of Hailey-Hailey disease that we hope will lead to better understanding & treatment of @RareDiseases. #ISID2023Tokyo#ProudPI 🤩
Great reporting adds to overwhelming evidence that @Cigna & other insurers inappropriately delay/deny care. Claims denied in batches without even being read. "Over a period of 2 mos last yr, @Cigna docs denied >300,000 requests...spending an avg of 1.2 seconds on each." https://t.co/TTo1PPojt4
