Do you remember the summer of 1968 when the US landed on the moon and you broke up a rehearsal being directed by Lanny Baugniet of "The Love of Don Perlimplín and Belisa in the Garden"?

What a year for @Andre_DeShields, star of @Hadestown. First a Tony Award, and now a Grammy for Best Musical Theater Album. In our Winter issue, De Shields explains how his undergrad experience at @UWMadison set him on the path to his legendary career: https://t.co/HbmGShdliW

I did have an idea he was a Badger - and I was fortunate to be part of the Production of the Fantastics (Assistant to the director) featured in this issue of ON Wisconsin. I was also the host of the cast party described in the article. The photo of the cast - Wow!. Bravo Andre

And thanks for selecting paper by Menon et al. on lipid sending by mTOR.

Thank you Alex for picking @shenk0128 paper on GATOR1

[David A. Foster @DavidAFosterPhD]

Phosphatidic acid promotes lysosomal translocation of mTORC1 and is a critical event for Rheb induced mTORC1 activity.

[Journal of Biological Chemistry @jbiolchem]

Paper in Press: Frias et. al present data supporting a model where PLD1,
similar to mTORC1, acts like a coincidence detector and
effector of both amino acids and growth factors triggering phosphatidic acid production. @CUNY @WeillCornell
