Dr @charlotttiie10 has been awarded funding through our Future Leaders Grant Programme to investigate meningiomas, the most common brain tumour. Her research will help uncover factors that drive growth, leading to earlier detection and better treatments. https://t.co/5IQFtNxAbt
One of my former students (Craig Betts) dropped this care package off for me today. More evidence that science is awesome. I’ve got poster session wardrobe sorted out now! #science#beer#centromere
Happy to share out latest preprint that looks at ATM kinase in neurodevelopment. Depleting ATM prevents neurons maturing correctly. Neurons are hypersensitive to ROS and unable to induce autophagy. Great work by Matthew Taylor @IcgsUob @unibirm_MDS https://t.co/YSWHp9QyqW
So honored and excited to be included among this incredible network of scientists taking on tough and risky problems in basic science! Thanks @hypothesisfund and @BhayaDevaki for the support! Let’s go, choanoflagellates - the @FUNRScience team is ready!
Excited to host arts salon on “pop up microscopy” at Stanford tomorrow with Aaron Straight and Hideo Mabuchi hosted by @StanfordArts - see @TeamFoldscope@planktoscope@cephlainc all in action together under one tent. Bring your favorite bug! Details https://t.co/hrkiHmuC7l
🌈 Starting #LGBTHM24 by honoring Alan Turing (1912-1954), a brilliant math prodigy who pioneered math and computer science. His pivotal role in breaking the Enigma code during WW2 altered history. Tragically, he faced injustice for being homosexual, enduring chemical castration and ultimately, losing his life to suicide. #AlanTuring #LGBTQIA
🚨Folks interested in Polarity🚨 apply for a talk/poster for the GRS on Cell Polarity Signaling! @negberry and I are organizing a 🔥 seminar that is entirely trainee focused. If you've been to a Gordon, you know the awesomeness. If you haven't - apply and find out! Please RT
The best thing my PhD supervisor ever told me was:
“Anyone can find a good, positive finding, that’s not the hard part. The hard part is when you figure out what’s next after you don’t get the results you wanted. That’s when you become a scientist”
It's out! Our paper describing chromatin interacting RNAs during human ES cell differentiation just published https://t.co/AlB84QXSBw with @climouse@SmithOwenK@fryer_kelsey@dmjukam@WJGreenleaf rethinking chromatin-RNA contacts in gene expression and genome organization
The fabulous Pragya Sidhwani @pra_sidh wrote this nice article about ideas for how cells build boundaries between chromatin domains, particularly the centromere! https://t.co/h3sL1MAAld Would love to hear other ideas for this question. #heterochromatin#centromere#boundaries
If you’re not watching #ASmallLight on @DisneyPlusUK you should be. I cannot recommend it enough – the extraordinary story of the extraordinary woman who hid the Frank family from the nazis in Amsterdam, so perfectly adapted for a modern audience.
