Congratulations Junjie Guo 郭俊傑 for being awarded the prestigious 2023 Neurobiology of Brain Disorders Awards from McKnight Foundation! His project, focused on understanding how nucleotide repeat expansion can lead to #ALS and frontotemporal dementia, is receiving $100,000/year for 3 years.


Our genetic screen uncovering a role of eIF2A in promoting coronavirus -1PRF is out in Cell Reports, with new data showing an intriguing CG-rich RNA binding preference of this mysterious translation factor. Congratulations Lianhuan Wei! @YaleRNA cell.com/cell-reports/f…

Excited to share that my PhD work is published now in Journal of Experimental Medicine! Take a look at it if you are interested in establishment of central B cell tolerance and how its abrogation might contribute to disease pathogenesis. meffrelab Yale Department of Immunobiology Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) Weill Cornell Medicine

Dr. Zhen Lei @Ray32364897 arrived just in time for amazing home-made mooncakes 🌕 from Lianhuan Wei and Atagun Ulas Isiktas. Welcome to the lab!
