That's the thing about science! There are ups and downs. Here at Tufts IRACDA we help you through all of them.

Unsurprising that there would be a link between your diet and mental health, however the science behind it is timely and fascinating! #science #research #microbiome #stress #mentalhealth #diet #nutrition npr.org/2024/06/20/nx-…

Love when games can help get folks interested in science!! the-scientist.com/borderlands-ga… #science #research #games

Our lab's initial foray into DNA damage tolerance in Drosophila was published in PLoS Genetics yesterday. A true team effort, with lots of surprises. One highlight: REV1 catalytic activity deals with alkylation damage, but only if pol zeta is missing! doi.org/10.1371/journa…

With their pulse oximeter device, Associate Professor Valencia Koomson and team were one of only three finalists in a global challenge that aimed to improve health equity. engineering.tufts.edu/news-events/ne… #health #medicine #science #research #biomedical #equity #healthequity #progress

Cool story of the engineering behind one of the tunnels going under Boston harbor, connecting east Boston; as it gets overhauled. instagram.com/reel/C-Sl8DUuz… #boston #engineering #infrastructure

Researchers reckon with a colonial legacy. Nothing about human history is completely clean. Science has very strong morals and ideals now, but how do we reconcile with the past? science.org/content/articl… #science #research #history

Well, that's not good. The FDA really needs to take banning toxic substances in FOODS - as many other nations do - more seriously. One little exposure might be ok, but over many years from your favorite food?? consumerreports.org/health/food-co… #fda #foodsafety #health #medicine #science

Fascinating genomics research coming out of Nigeria! ACEGID science.org/content/articl… #science #research #genomics #africa #nigeria #progress #future

Each week we'll be introducing you to one of our amazing Tufts IRACDA Scholars! This week, meet Chisaka Kuehnemann. She's studying at HNRCA on how disease-causing cells die in order to identify ways to remove those cells before they cause damage! solutions.tufts.edu/expertise/agin…

Fun takeaway, but legit! Video games helped a lot of us through the pandemic. nature.com/articles/d4158… #research #gaming #mentalhealth #pandemic #videogames

Meet our Scholars! This week, meet Dr. Maria C. Sterrett, PhD! Her research in the Claire Moore lab dives into how cells change their mRNA processing to handle stress. This could help us understand how gene expression adapts to different conditions gsbs.tufts.edu/faculty-resear… #research #science
