Congrats to Victor and Gary!! Victor is profoundly beloved here at @UMassChan , he always has the most interesting questions and ideas and is 100% kind all the time - a truly brilliant and generous spirit. He lifts up our entire community! Very well-deserved.

BREAKING NEWS
The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

Very excited to share our latest work on spatial connection between transcripts starts and ends (1/8) https://t.co/ieSXgHethK

[Athma Pai @athmapai]

@GTExPortal @ENCODE_NIH This work was driven by @ecalvoroitberg & @__ccarroll in a long-term collaboration between my lab & @anafiszbein lab! A huge thanks to Sergey Venev and @job_dekker for collaborating on micro-C analyses and crucial contributions from @GyeungYun_Kim & @steventmick (8/8)

New preprint alert! We find that spatial and kinetic mechanisms underlie coordinated regulation of mRNA initiation and termination across a gene. https://t.co/Zy05yrISMk A thread 🧵 (1/8)

[Athma Pai @athmapai]

@GTExPortal @ENCODE_NIH Together, our results suggest that a combination of gene architecture, chromatin domains, and kinetic mechanisms ultimately influence the regulation of mRNA isoform composition (7/8)

@aemonten Or is it actually the perfect acronym? 😉

Congrats @valuchisanabria !

Valeria Sanabria, MD, grew up in Argentina and decided to pursue a PhD at UMass Chan instead of progressing to a residency program after medical school. Meet this year's winner of the Zelda Haidak Scholarship in Cell Biology: https://t.co/LuTTWyJ3ox @valuchisanabria @athmapai

Anyone need a ride from Boston to @Riboclub_Canada annual meeting in a few weeks? I'm happy to drive, but looking for company!

Mary Munson started her research career in a laboratory at the same time as two more outgoing male scientists. She eventually realized being the quiet one wouldn’t do her any favors.
