What does pseudouridine (ψ) actually do to protein production? It’s been studied for years — but its impact on translation has remained surprisingly unclear. We were excited to tackle this directly in our latest NAR paper: tinyurl.com/psitranslation

Years in the making: a detailed aging gene signature in mice and rats. >30 tissues, high Ns, multi-time points throughout the lifespan. >5000 samples in total. The data is accessible, so you check to see if your favorite gene is age-regulated. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Excited to share this work exploring the profile of senolytic CAR T cells in physiological aging. Great collaboration with Inés Fernández-Maestre, that started @MSKCC and bore fruit @amor_lab @CSHL nature.com/articles/s43587-0…

Very saddened to hear of Judy’s passing. I had the incredible opportunity to collaborate with Judy during my PhD. Judy was nothing short of an extraordinary scientist that shaped the field of aging & senescence to be what it is today. A true pioneer and champion in science.
I'm deeply saddened to share that we have lost a remarkable friend, a wonderful mentor and esteemed colleague, Judith Campisi. Judith's impact on those around her was profound and lasting. Her legacy will continue to inspire us all. Rest in peace, Judy. You will be greatly missed

A reminder that the abundance of 'house keeping' proteins varies significantly across cells and tissues. GAPDH (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) is often slandered a 'house keeping' protein, and its abundance varies significantly across human tissues.

Writing a manuscript (or two 😉) from pure scratch after a few years… needless to say I’ve taken quite a few walks around the lab and campus to ummm… think (procrastinate). Anyways, stay tuned 📊📈💻

The lab decorated their pumpkins again this year! Some spooky, some cute, so many talented painters. Do I spy a repeat GDF11 👻?! Even spookier!

🐭🧬Our paper on locus-specific mouse L1 activity and regulation, led by the indomitable @Patricia_Grds is out @genomeresearch!🧬🐭 This study evolved from a simple question: what defines the mutagenic potential of a new L1 copy in vivo? genome.cshlp.org/cgi/content… A thread: 1/n

Over the moon about my postdoc work ⁦@ScienceMagazine⁩ ! Ever wonder about how mammalian cells selectively degrade unwanted nuclear proteins without involving ubiquitination? Check out our paper on a non-canonical protein degradation mechanism! science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Grad student @keahi_dani studies the role of DNA repair in preventing medulloblastoma, the most common pediatric brain cancer. Her focus is on how developing brain cells are vulnerable to DNA damage and the pathways that protect them from becoming cancerous. #AAPIHeritageMonth
