This month's faculty focus interview features Bronwyn Lucas!

On running a lab: "It’s about equipping the people in my lab to tackle challenges & mentoring them as they develop their own approaches."

1/8 ❄️🔬Excited to share our latest work published in @NatureComms! Led by @kaitlyn_m_abe and in colab with @GrantCryoEMLab, we've discovered a simple, cost-effective way to mitigate sample damage at the air-water interface during grid preparation. #CryoEM https://t.co/4Iui3Ita1k

I can’t think of cooler work to fund, but am a bit biased. Congratulations!!

Check out the latest story from the Sternberg group: phages coopted transposon-encoded nucleases (TnpB) and repurposed them for regulation of host genes!

Congrats to MCB's David Savage @SavageCatsOnly on his promotion to Professor of Biochemistry, Biophysics and Structural Biology! 👏🥂 https://t.co/B5OJ0KiTdH

[Laina @LainaHall]

Recently, @KimiHerath, Matthew, and I were lucky enough to become the Lucas labs (@bronwynalucas) first graduate students. We‘ll be spending the summer finding proteins inside cells, learning and raiding the stellar snack cupboard at the @cziscience imaging institute

@artemnemudryi @UFMedicine So exciting, congratulations!!

[Artem Nemudryi, PhD @artemnemudryi]

Cellular repair of DNA breaks enables editing of the human genome.

Do human cells repair RNA breaks, and can we use it to edit transcriptomes?

Our work with @ANemudraia and @WiedenheftLab is now online in @ScienceMagazine!

What limits rubisco function? Is it the chemical mechanism? Evolution? In an updated pre-print @prywes et. al explore this question by assaying >99% of single amino acid mutants in Form II rubisco (1/7)

[Owen Tuck @owen_t_tuck]

New preprint! @ben_a_adler and I @doudna_lab, in collaboration with @Emy_nim and @JoePogliano, unveil a mechanism for Hachiman immunity. The punchline - Hachiman is a genome integrity sensor. @UCB_Chemistry @igisci @HHMINEWS

The Santiago-Frangos lab is open and ready to do some exciting research on CRISPR biology and CRISPR applications!
Ecstatic to be on UPenn's campus amongst such a supportive group of excellent scientists!🤓

[Bridget Carragher @bcarra2]

Our team at #CZImagingInstitute is excited to share the #CryoET Data Portal beta release.
With over 13,000 tomograms, it’s the start of what we hope will be a large, open-access portal of high-quality, standardized & annotated cryo-ET data.

Please join me in congratulating @dominick_faith on advancing to PhD candidacy! Congrats Dom!

Special thanks to @WiedenheftLab for joining us from Montana State this morning

[Joey Nichols @jnichols37C]

Embarrassing how giddy I was to see that my favorite podcast highlighted my paper! Go to minute 36 for a Bozeman shoutout :)

[Laina @LainaHall]

@henriques_will Very cool work! Congratulations!

[Andrew Santiago-Frangos, PhD @SantiagoFrangos]

📢I'm hiring! Postdocs, PhDs, and Research Techs at Dept. of @PennBiology at @Penn! We'll use bioinformatics 🖥️, biochem 🧪, and cryo-EM ❄️🔬, to study how CRISPR systems work & applications. Work on cool science with a supportive mentor!
