Super proud of our team for their hard work on this project. Would not have been possible without huge collaborative effort between @UCLAMBI @BC_UCLA @dgsomucla and support from @NIH

Super proud of our undergrads Christy and Michelle for their strong work at LJIC @ljiresearch @salkinstitute @immunologyUCSD . The labs they join for their PhDs will be very lucky to have them!!

Very grateful to my mentor for offering the opportunity to solo this commentary on our recent study. Here we discuss CRISPR tools for studying IEI and expand on observations linking neurodevelopment and IEI that didn’t make it in the original discussion: https://t.co/eKaewq3uAy

Incredible tribute to phospholipids

Adalia and Christy crushed it presenting their work for @UCLA undergrad research week. Great job! @MicrobioUcla @UCLA_BRI @UCLAMBI @UclaMcdb

[Prashant Bhat @_prashantbhat]

A long sought after hypothesis has been that organizing biomolecules in and around nuclear bodies is essential for functional RNA processing. We now provide direct evidence of this in @Nature for nuclear speckles and mRNA splicing. Check out this thread!

Fantastic work by the very talented Adalia Zhou on this month’s @NatImmunol cover art featuring our latest work. Sad to see her graduating this quarter as she moves on to Gu lab @harvardmed !

Congrats Meredith and @jesse_lee3 ! Miss you guys at @LabBeatty

So cool for our study to be featured by @PamelaWongPhD and @LabFehniger in @NatImmunol news & views. They thoughtfully highlight key lines of further study and unanswered questions raised by our work. Thanks Todd!

Good time to get back on twitter I guess. Crazy to think 10 yrs ago when I was learning about PDAC these KRAS inhibitors were a pipe dream.
