“The call from Stockholm is mythic in the world of science.”
New medicine laureate Gary Ruvkun has received a prank call or two in the past, but today’s was genuine. We talked to him minutes after he heard the news of his #NobelPrize.
@CGM_MGH Investigators Jong-Min Lee, Jim Gusella, Marcy MacDonald, Vanessa Wheeler & colleagues found that genetic variant rs3512 changes a target recognition sequence of miR-124-3p, modifying Huntington’s disease onset by altering FAN1 levels. Read more: https://t.co/kL2KYAv62c
The @CGM_MGH in the @MGH_RI and @harvardmed is seeking a Scientific Communications Manager (https://t.co/rbUPeK7ngb). We’re looking for an impassioned communicator with the vision to amplify transformative discoveries in genomic medicine and to support our philanthropic goals.
Proud to be a part of this review addressing identity, structure and function of the mPTP. An impressive team of scientists contributed to this work and perhaps most importantly contrasts consensus with controversies and challenges to the field. @CGM_MGH@harvardmed#mitochondria
Identity, structure, and function of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore: controversies, consensus, recent advances, and future directions | Cell Death & Differentiation. Our review was written by 9 investigators who have pioneered mPTP research https://t.co/miNbcCbvAG
Here is my response to a recent perspective by @PeterAttiaMD. Unfortunately, I believe his comments have been misunderstood in the bigger context. A short 🧵... https://t.co/xxbCRtfRZy

Ever wondered how top researchers got where they are? What difference did #mentors make? Can you make a difference in someone else's career path? #training the next generation is key to the #McCanceCenter's mission. #McCance's @wrannlab shares her story. https://t.co/DyUKLR5blt
Our lab's work is now out in @AgingCell https://t.co/u3swAHrD2f by first author Armen Yerevanian, MD, showing that vitamins have complicated roles in aging: riboflavin depletion in adult life promotes longevity and metabolic hormesis!
Paper alert! Our work linking #splicing fidelity, #mTOR function and #longevity in worms and mammalian cells is out. https://t.co/ecwnrMlLB5
Here is a thread of the work, lead by senior postdoc @WenmingAGE, in collaboration with @stephalcantara@DemetriadesLab 1/6
Let me be the first to congratulate @RyanLCollins13, now Dr. Ryan L. Collins, who successfully just defended his PhD from the @harvardmed Bioinformatics and Integrative Genomics program 👏
A proud day for Ryan and all of us in his personal and professional life!!!!
