How does Pol II machinery change as transcription proceeds from the initiating base, through promoter-proximal pause, and into productive elongation? We tackled this question by developing a technique, PRO-IP-seq, that: 🧵

I used to be proud of @Cornell's COVID-19 response, but the Fall '22 guidelines are truly disappointing. We have world class scientists but fail to protect our students, faculty and staff with science-based public health measures.

The centrifuge read 666 on the display when I turned it on and the foreboding energy is palpable. Let's hope my cells embrace the darkness

So happy to help lead the effort to share the science behind the COVID19 vaccines by phone banking in our local communities with low vaccination rates. Thanks for sharing our enthusiasm @CornellNews!

Calling all Cornell scientists! We are recruiting for the Vaccination Conversations with Scientists (VaCS) initiative. For the past few months, we've been out in the community, talking with people about the Covid vaccines. Sign up to participate here! forms.gle/GMLRhCcRTovnQaH6A
