When his kindergarten teacher decided he was too tall and should skip ahead to 1st grade, Isaac Klein, now a postdoc and physician, didn't mind: "That means I'll start medical school a year earlier." Read on in this week’s #WhiteheadPostdocProfiles ow.ly/lyxv50keIgO

Biomolecular condensates pique drug discovery curiosity go.nature.com/2I9IqIj - find out more here about the drug discovery implications of transient liquid-like droplets made up of proteins and RNA in cells in this news story by Asher Mullard

Nice work from StarkLab on the preference of Transcriptional cofactors for certain promoter types. nature.com/articles/s4158…

A new study in nature led by Eric Guo & John Manteiga in Richard Young’s lab reveals that condensates play a role in splicing, an essential activity that ensures the genetic code is prepared for translation into protein: ow.ly/neKm50vqHwF MIT Biology MIT Science

How does a cell organize key steps in gene expression? Are transcription and RNA splicing organized in specialized condensates or “droplets”? What controls the transition from transcription to splicing? Check out latest Nature paper from our great team! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Furthering a new model of gene control, a study led by @krishna_shriniv of the Chakraborty Lab MIT ChemE Dept & Ben Sabari of the Young lab identifies threshold conditions that decide whether a condensate of transcription factors forms at a site on the genome: ow.ly/Y9v050vrUOB

Our bioRxiv biorxiv.org/content/10.110… is now published Molecular Cell cell.com/molecular-cell…. Fun collaboration with the great @krishna_shriniv. Thanks to everyone who made this possible.

Our work is published now! Great joy to work with Ben Sabari and team :)

The lab website sabarilab.com is live! Make sure to check out our open positions sabarilab.com/open-positions. We are recruiting postdocs, grad students and research assistants to work at the interface of gene regulation and condensate biology. Please RT.

Looking for an exciting PhD-position using live-cell imaging and sequencing to study gene regulation? We’re hiring! schuijerslab.org

Check out our new paper on how clinically important drugs are concentrated in nuclear condensates. So much fun doing this study together Isaac Klein, Richard Young and all collaborators. science.sciencemag.org/content/368/64…

Check out our review about Biomolecular condensates and cancer. Fun to write this together with Richard Young and Isaac Klein. authors.elsevier.com/c/1cNFW5TA51TI…

The latest paper from our lab is now online Molecular Cell. We used a histone replacement system and biochemical reconstitution to show the requirement of H3K14 acetylation for the expression of a set of genes that are essential for Drosophila development and tissue patterning.
