With sorrow, we (@Stanford_MCP @SSBiophysics) share news that our friend & colleague, Bill Weis, passed away Oct 13,2023. Among many other reasons, he is missed for his discoveries, mentoring, and for the gift of his incisive intellect, wry wit, & kindness. RIP.

What do these students from @syamadalab @UCDavisBME @ucdavis have in common? @NSFGRFP! @_KyleJacobs and Jackie Yee @UCSF are recipients of 2020 #GRFP, and @CheahJoleen @Stanford received one last year. Congratulation!

Ramesh from Sivasankar lab @ucdavis @UCDavisBME presenting his new findings on inside-out regulations of cadherins! Exquisite structure-function analysis demonstrating cadherins, similar to integrins, can be reguated by intracellular proteins. #ASCBEMBO19

[Soichiro Yamada @syamadalab]

An excellent researcher with sharp eyes for free give aways, @CheahJoleen, will be presenting her work
@UCDavisBME @ucdavis in Tuesday's poster session B626 #ASCBEMBO19. Thank you @biotechne for free science gift wrapper!

JUST PUBLISHED IN PNAS! 2009 BYI Soichiro Yamada & 2016 BSP Joleen Cheah: "Force-induced recruitment of cten along keratin network in epithelial cells." https://t.co/Te49tC36dU

[Soichiro Yamada @syamadalab]

@CheahJoleen @heinrich_lab @UCDavisBME @ucdavisbiology Where can you find such talented students??? @CheahJoleen is a first year graduate student @StanfordBiosci and Kyle is applying for graduate schools this year.

[Soichiro Yamada @syamadalab]

New paper by @CheahJoleen and Kyle - both as undergraduate students: Force-induced recruitment of cten along keratin network in epithelial cells https://t.co/p4l3IJhmtk

[Soichiro Yamada @syamadalab]

@CheahJoleen @heinrich_lab Yes, Joleen and Kyle are both undergraduate students. Kyle is a recipient of @UCDavisBME Undergraduate Research Award 2019. Joleen's accolades are too long to list but highlighted by @ucdavisbiology: https://t.co/xJtlgKIcuB

[Soichiro Yamada @syamadalab]

Great @UCDavisBME graduation event! Congrats to everyone! Also, Kyle is a recipient of @UCDavisBME research award this year - awesome!
