NYC! Snow is making it's way to the city early tomorrow morning and we're expecting up to 5-8". ❄🌨⛄ Stay off the roads if possible, keep your sidewalks clear if you're a property owner, and sign up for NotifyNYC at nyc.gov/notify for up to date weather alerts.

Which genes in #aging bones are associated with fractures? We identified mouse genes relevant to human bone fractures using #rnaseq and #GWAS data. My favorite figure from our recently published #JBMR article: asbmr.onlinelibrary.wiley.co… @ucsfmskcenter #UCSF #ASBMR

Wow, just finished a great new paper from @karl_j_lewis and the folks at the @SchafflerLab. Not just the lovely in vivo calcium signalling that is their calling card, but some beautiful super-res imaging of the osteocyte mechanosome too!😍 Bravo all! 👏 sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Moving classes online is hardship for students without internet access. Some internet providers are offering free services for 1-3 months for low-income students. Check with local providers. Please re-tweet. #OnlineTeaching
