Happy Halloween from the “Western Blot Nightmares”, including: Dirty Blot, Sad Blot, Empty Blot, Smeared Blot, and Bubble Blot!
@RiceLabOMRF had a blast at the @OMRF Halloween Party and won 2nd place in the performance category in the costume contest!
Had an exciting week at annual GREAT symposium 2024 at @OUHSC_Grad So thankful to the judges, faculty and my lab @RiceLabOMRF for giving me the opportunity to present my flash talk and getting recognized. 🙏

Kriti Shukla @kritis45 - the newest PhD student in the @RiceLabOUHSC - did a fantastic job presenting her poster at the @americanaging conference, taking place right here in OKC. #AGE2023
This makes me realize how magical Organic Chemistry is! Click reaction is one of the magic tricks to connect molecules which are highly energy demanding. If it wasn’t for these reactions, we’d be spending eternities trying to make carbon atoms react in a living cell for research!
BREAKING NEWS:
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless “for the development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry.”
Check out this article from The Scientist- My lab’s PI, Dr. Rice talks about Amyloid Precursor Protein and it’s crucial role in Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis.

Can't believe I get to do this at work!
Here are the images from my first brain imaging using confocal microscopy. 🙂
Can you tell what region of the brain this is?
Blue: Nuclei
Red: Microglia
Magenta: Astrocytes
Green: Neuritic plaques
Go Science!
Primary brain cells culture update:
Today, a colleague let me perform brain dissection and I successfully isolated cortex and hippocampus from a P2 mouse. Polishing my ‘cleaning out the meninges’ skills now. Go science!
The @RiceLabOUHSC took a break from the lab to go for lunch together at Hall’s Pizza Kitchen. What an excellent team this is! I’ll be featuring each of them on our lab Twitter page over the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
Kudos to organizers for selecting such a diverse panel! And thank you for inviting me to present alongside with these outstanding scientists.
