It's official! Our team at @PacBio developed a new way to detect 5mC in CpG motifs in #HiFi data, and all tools have been released. This opens the door for phased #methylation data and other novel analyses. A brief overview...🧵1/5

A new Transcription-coupled DNA repair study from the Nudler lab at NYU. Happy to see CPD-seq is now used for repair studies in E.coli. https://t.co/vP2elVJuaq

The work from my PhD is out in @NatureComms! 🥳 This is my first first-author publication and is highlighted in the thread below:

[Nudler Lab News @Nudler_lab_news]

We are excited to share our dual publications regarding Global Genomic Repair (GGR) and Transcription-Coupled Repair (TCR) in @Nature and @NatureComms, each will be highlighted here! This work was led by our recent graduate @britm_ and two talented postdocs Binod and Manjunath!

I did it!! On Friday I successfully defended my PhD thesis and had a wonderful night celebrating with my friends in NYC. It was better than I’d ever hoped. Now time to enjoy NYC for the next 2 weeks before I move back to California! 🥳

Artie’s first and my last Fall🍁 in NYC. As much as I complain about the cold, I will definitely miss it here.🥲

[Nudler Lab News @Nudler_lab_news]

Check out our new results in @NatureMicrobiol led by two very talented scientists from our group Aviram and Yosef! They describe a strategy to identify and eventually target the fitness costs that come with acquiring antibiotic resistance in Bacteria!#AMR

@FishySounds @OpenAcademics 2438.4 miles. How have I not looked this up before?! Los Angeles area to NYC. And being honest, it is too far for me :(

Friendly reminder that the *entire west coast* is under air quality alerts today, has been all week, and will be all weekend.

The entire west coast.

The air along the *entire west coast* is unhealthy to breathe.

@careerconversa1 This is also me! Wake up at 4-5am. Sometimes I start waking in and out of sleep by 2am. I used to resist it and try to sleep until it’s a normal waking hour and it doesn’t work for me. A nap on a weekend day helps me when I am too sleep deprived, if I can do it.

Visualizing individual RNA Pol2 molecules from the Teves lab :D

@TobiasSchraink Tobi... I still need to get that jar open 😓😂

I recently found the green chile my grandma always made for us growing up. It’s something I thought I wouldn’t find here in NYC! She walked me through her recipe on the phone and it turned out delicious ...almost as good as hers.
