Last October, cell biology lost one of its brightest stars, Bill Weis. Bill was a masterful biochemist and structural biologist who made landmark contributions to a remarkable number of fields. An obituary from @peiferlabunc & Alexander Dunn in @JCellBiol: https://t.co/WwIm1qhtme

Yesterday, our student, Elise Bruguera @ebruguera, defended her thesis and dissertation research to a full house. We are proud of her accomplishments & grateful for the ways she has made us better. Next step: Postdoc!

Animation of Gbeta5 folding by the CCT protein folding machine. Multiple snapshots were recovered from cryo-EM image processing, which revealed the step-by-step folding trajectory of its beta-propeller fold. Paper link: https://t.co/hKpxVaTCA3. Animation by @MargotRiggi

Lab (recent) alumnus Alex Vizurraga Ph.D. is the @MolPharmJournal highlighted trainee for July! His first author paper detailing the discovery of a new GPR56 activating compound was published in the same issue.

Good morning! Let’s kick off day 2 of our public union effort with some incredible news: the official card count from day 1 was 2571!

2500+ cards in one day is a *huge* accomplishment. This is the power of solidarity! Let’s keep it going!

[StanfordGWU-UE @StanfordGWU]

Cards are still rolling in and entries are still being made, but as of right now, we’ve logged OVER 2000 SIGNED UNION CARDS! ❤️🌲 THANK YOU, STANFORD GRADS!

[StanfordGWU-UE @StanfordGWU]

Today, Stanford graduate workers have announced our intent to unionize! Follow along and join us in solidarity as we fight to make Stanford a fair and safe workplace by giving graduate workers a real voice in our wellbeing. Stanford works because WE do! #StanfordGWU #SGWU

It's nice to finally see this work published. A big congrats and thank you to all my fantastic co-authors Frank Kwarcinski, @maiya_yu , @panovanator, Ann Ovrusky, @LabSkiniotis, and @lab_tall 🍾

[Tall G protein Lab @lab_tall]

The Ric-8B G alpha s/olf structures are the first of any pose for G alpha olf and the hard work of @MPapasergiScott, Frank Kwarcinski, @maiya_yu, Ouliana Panova, Ann Ovrutsky in a fun collaboration with @LabSkiniotis
