🚨absolutely beautiful work from my Twitterless friend Jennifer and @DavidGDrubin…the perfect combo of quantitative cell biology and agent based modeling!!🚨bonus! She’s on the job market and you’d be lucky to have her on your team ;)

I’m super excited to share that I’m joining the Stem Cell & Gene Editing team at the Allen Institute for Cell Science this August! I am grateful to the mitosis community, all my mentors, and friends at Berkeley for such a wonderful PhD experience!!

[Julia Torvi @jtorvs]

And most importantly major appreciation and thanks for all Jonathan, @DavidGDrubin, and Georjana’s help and support 😊😊😊

[Julia Torvi @jtorvs]

I’m glad I could share this final chapter of my PhD research with you all! We have followed up on the eLife kinetochore reconstitution data, probing the mechanism of chromosome congression via Kip3 and found that Stu2 is also involved! https://t.co/o1mxo4sqfF

#Issue44 profiles the research and service of @berkeleyMCB Professor @rebeccaheald! Heald was recently inducted into the @theNASciences and @aaas, and discusses with @ssamvardhini how this has impacted her mentorship and teaching efforts @UCBerkeley. 👇👇

@McknightLaura Thank you!!!! And oh man, yeah time goes by in a blink of an eye…………

[Julia Torvi @jtorvs]

Even though I still have a couple more months left here to find a job, Friday was the big commencement day making me Dr. Torvi?! I can’t thank my friends and family enough. I love you all and I wouldn’t be here without all your support ❤️

[Julia Torvi @jtorvs]

@RossTAPedersen He’s so proud of it so I will def pass this message on!!

[Julia Torvi @jtorvs]

@cogcelia @AAASMassMedia @WIREDScience Congrats!!!!!!!!! So well deserved!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh hi! Please consider donating to the @BerkeleySciRev during our crowdfunding campaign. It's truly a privilege to get to be part of such a wonderful science communication magazine. We need all the help we can get to continue our efforts! https://t.co/9c5htjAIUk

Meet Julia @jtorvs! Julia is a late-stage grad student in the Biophysics program studying how cells divide. In her free timeshe loves cooking (and eating), and alsorunning (so she can cook and eat more) (1/4)

If you want to chat about kinetochores and motors in mitosis come to my poster TODAY at 12:15 B205 #ASCB2022 I love wild speculation and would love to hear others cool ideas!

[Berkeley Science Review @BerkeleySciRev]

The Berkeley Science Review is excited to share #Issue43 with readers! As the magazine makes its way around campus, follow us here for the next two weeks for daily updates about the fascinating articles written and illustrated by our wonderful team of #scicommers and #designers!

#MotorsInQuarantine will host @jtorvs from @DavidGDrubin lab today to talk about kinesin-8 in microtubule capturing and @ABittleston from @DeriveryLab to discussed kinesin-3 in polarised trafficking. https://t.co/Eod3KjoniY

This is always a great event! Sign-up folks!!!

This was one of my favorite projects to work on in a long time. For me it really showed the power of reconstruction and how nicely it can complement the EPIC cell biology Matt and his lab excel at!

[Matthew Miller @m_p_miller]

Excited to share a new preprint from the lab. Really awesome detective work from Joe Carrier, @jtorvs, and @erinejenson (and all authors) determining how the TOG protein, Stu2, gets into the nucleus and the super surprising finding... (1/3)

[Julia Torvi @jtorvs]

Kar3, and honestly kinesin-14s in general, are just so weird and mysterious to me. BUT my old bay mate, Zane, (who is also out on the job market in San Diego!!) has just dropped a SUPER COOL pre-print looking at Kar3 across the cell cycle! @DavidGDrubin https://t.co/xvMwr7e9DU
