Our new G3 paper identifying SEM-4 as an important regulator of the C. elegans oxidative stress response is now available @GeneticsGSA. "The SEM-4 Transcription Factor Is Required for Regulation of the Oxidative Stress Response in Caenorhabditis elegans" https://t.co/bXUoWpAfGX

Actin (red) and focal adhesions (green) in an epithelial cell acquired back when microscopes did not have automatic focusing devices. That’s right kids. We could only image one cell at a time while correcting focus drift on the fly- uphill both ways. #CellBiology

Vey happy to see our latest paper - published in Genetics @GeneticsGSA - excellent editorial handling and constructive reviews -thank you!

Do you have white teenage sons?

Listen up.

I've been watching my boys' online behavior & noticed that social media and vloggers are actively laying groundwork in white teens to turn them into alt-right/white supremacists.

Here's how:

THE CELL’S POWERHOUSE
Mitochondria (yellow) make much of the chemical energy that fuels the life of a cell. They also move rapidly as seen in this cancer cell compared to the relatively slow moving nucleus (blue) and cellular adhesions (purple).

Let’s play a little game.

Let’s say that you’re the CSO at a cancer pharma company, and you have to choose a target to go after.

Here’s a gene – high expression is associated with poor prognosis in brain cancer. Looks like a good candidate for an inhibitor right?

PSA:
"Wild Type" the noun has no hyphen. E.g. We compared the mutants to the wild type. Here, wild = adjective, type = noun.
"Wild-type" the adjective has a hyphen. E.g. We compared the mutant cells to wild-type cells. Here, wild-type is a 1-word adj. used to modify the n. cells

Ok, let's talk about the Specific Aims page. As anyone with any experience with NIH grants will tell you, this is THE most important document in your package.
