🔊To students applying to PhD programs in biomedical science this year- this is a brilliant Tri-Institutional program that will match you with a grad student mentor to help guide you through the application process!! So valuable to have a mentor during this time. Apps due Aug 13!

Just posted Daniel Ball’s latest work. He’s presenting a poster on these findings at #emboinflammasomes this week - check it out! Oxidized thioredoxin-1 restrains the NLRP1 inflammasome biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

1. Our paper on the ubiquitin ligase FBXO31, its regulation of the DUSP6-ERK-AKT axis, and its involvement in prostate cancer is out Cell Reports. cell.com/cell-reports/f…

Please help spread the word: we’re soon going to host a gap year/postbac program at MSK. Phenomenal opportunity to train with dedicated faculty with some terrific courses to embellish the research. Find out more 👇🏽

scientists: logic and objectivity are paramount also scientists: only use the middle PCR machine if you want your PCRs to work

I am extremely honored to be one of the five recipients of the 2021 ISSNAF Young Investigator Awards. Many thanks to the Campese family, ISSNAF, Italy in US, and the Ambassador Mariangela Zappia for supporting young Italian scholars in the US.

Honored to be featured as one of the #FacesOfCell and to be part of this incredible initiative!! Thanks Cell

The Best Scientists 🧵 I have heard a lot about the Best Scientists 🧑‍🔬 Maybe the best scientists... make impactful discoveries, publish in gilded journals, garner millions in funding, with lots of indirects. And prizes, all the prizes🏆 And everybody respects them. OR…

Our new paper shows that the 20S proteasome controls the CARD8 inflammasome - protein disorder, not ubiqutination, mediates activation. This work was led by Jeffrey C. Hsiao and follows up previous work regarding CARD8 disorder by Ashley Chui jbc.org/article/S0021-…

Boldly announcing our existence with this new sign! Join us and increase our atomic mass. We are well funded and looking to hire a postdoc to work on uncovering the mechanisms of how the innate immune system activates adaptive immunity. Experience with mice is preferred. RT!!

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has destroyed the Ukrainian infrastructure making it impossible to perform biomedical research. It is also creating serious problems for the scientific enterprise in Russia. I feel the urgency to help brilliant scientists from these 2 countries 1/3

A thread on designing visually appealing slides. There are lots of great books/websites/videos about making slide presentations—this thread will focus on quick visual design tips that are easy to employ. Compiled by Matt Carter . 🧵1/25

Discovery of covalent ligation of ubiquitin to substrate proteins to target them for degradation made in 1980 by Avram Hershko and colleagues. PMCID: PMC348591 #singleplot

Q: Is it worth me taking extra time to 'dumb down the paper' so it does better in a general interest with a higher impact factor rather than speciality journal? Me: What the hell are you talking about? Do you mean explain your paper so its understood by more than 5 people? Yes!

Congrats to Tania! I am so thankful I get to work with and learn from her. Looking forward to more fun days in (and out of) the lab 😜
