Out from my the Jackson lab, CRISPR-based, programmable cell killing by recognizing disease causing RNAs 🤯

[Jackson Lab @ USU @Jackson_Lab_USU]

Happy to share that our work on Cas12a2 was published in Nature last week. USU Biochemists Show CRISPR Can Selectively Destroy Cells, a Cancer-Treatment Goal https://t.co/34Hp44w0Cf

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

Check out this really cool work from the Cress lab. This paves the way for some really awesome things!

[Brady Cress @bradyfcress]

Our lab is proud to present our latest work harnessing Bridge Recombinase for genome-scale editing in diverse bacteria, microbiome editing, and programmable horizontal gene transfer.

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

A cool opportunity to work on prokaryotic immune systems. Check out this post-doc opening in the Swarts lab!

[Daan C. Swarts @DCSwarts]

PostDoc position available!

Feel free to share!

@artemnemudryi @SantiagoFrangos @NatureMicrobiol Nice story, congratulations!

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

@SternbergLab @LeifuChangLab Nice! Very cool!

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

@1992shaikhyahya @palermo_lab Probably not a good idea to put your personal contact info on a public internet post 😬

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

@ScienceNews This post sound like the opening line of a scifi horror flick

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

@NikoMcCarty This sounds like such a useful book!

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

@artemnemudryi @rafapinilla92 Congratulations Artem! Cool story!

@KathyYWei1 You'll probably need to do experimental phasing (metal soaks, etc.). AF is no good with small peptides, especially if there is any conformation switching.

@NikoMcCarty $10k gets you a lamaner flow cabinet and 1 month postdoc salary

@ItaiYanai Not while on the Beagle, he didn't.

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

@ATinyGreenCell Definitely read this as "kids" first and was a tad concerned by tone and the response in comments...

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

@0xluffy You need to relax. Usually short sleep is because of stress (I'd usually only get 4is for the last year of my PhD studies)

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

@tunguz Only in the USA lol

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

Awesome story!

[David R. Liu @davidrliu]

Today in @ScienceMagazine we report the development of a laboratory-evolved CRISPR-associated transposase (evoCAST) that supports therapeutically relevant levels of RNA-programmable gene insertion in human cells, a collaboration with @SternbergLab.

@davidasinclair I don't want to see 10x increase in lifespan. Old people gotta go. Let them rest

[Thomson Hallmark, PhD @tjHallmark]

Cool postdoc opportunity in the Ke lab!

[Ailong Ke's Lab at Yale MB&B @AilongK]

My lab has postdoc openings in the following areas: 1) Structural biology and single molecule biophysics; 2) Developing novel genome editing methods; and 3) Protein and RNA engineering. Please share the info with your trainees, and RT please. 🙏

@cblatts This is a cool aspect of ChatGPT. I find that giving it a persona greatly impacts the kind of answer/feedback I get. Tailoring the initial persona is almost as important as all the training data imo
