So much already this Fall! Fantastic posters by our undergraduates, Celebrating Nora's 1% on her F31, our annual pumpkin picking outing, & invited Book Chapter just accepted this week (will share when out). Happy Fall to All :)

Remembering the first woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize, the first individual to be awarded two Nobel Prizes and still today the only individual with two Nobel Prizes in two different scientific categories: Marie Skłodowska Curie. Curie was born #OnThisDay in 1867.

Proximity-specific ribosome profiling using LOV-BirA reveals two distinct strategies for mitochondrially-localized translation: one for long coding sequences and one for short. It was a pleasure to contribute to this beautiful work from Jonathan Weissman @JswLab and @JingchuanLuo

This preprint from Helen Sakharova is one of the coolest things to come out of my lab: “Protein language models reveal evolutionary constraints on synonymous codon choice.” Codon choice is a big puzzle in genome information, and we have a new angle. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

(1/n) Excited to share our new preprint! We uncover that RNA actively promotes nucleation and function of pathogenic condensates, amplifying locus-specific oncogenic transcription and promoting tumorigenesis. #epigenetics #condensates #cancer #RNA biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
