Lab happy hour celebrating start of summer & Hana's JF Fellowship at Cira Green! ciragreen.com

It was so much fun to chat with UPenn Dept of Biochem & Biophys grad students about our postdoc experience Penn!

It was great to organize and guest edit the latest issue of Chemical Reviews on Phase Separation with Sua Myong Myong Lab: pubs.acs.org/toc/chreay/123…

Defining RNA oligonucleotides that reverse deleterious phase transitions of RNA-binding proteins with prion-like domains: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very excited to finally see this out Nature Chemistry! The interface of hnRNPA1 LCD condensates promotes the transition to amyloids. Thanks to everyone involved for their important contributions! Paolo Arosio D-CHAB ETH Zurich nature.com/articles/s4155…

Excited to present UC San Francisco UCSF Biochemistry The Basic Science Seminar:  A Celebration of Audacious Fundamental Research tomorrow at noon in Genentech Hall, thanks so much to @SouthworthLab for hosting!

Congratulations to Janka Zsok and Elisa Dultz for their paper on the #nuclearpore basket in collaboration with Lucien Weiss. The first preprint from the Dultz group! "doRITE" and have a look at tracks of single NPCs. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to host Paolo Arosio with Miriam Linsenmeier for special seminar Penn UPenn Dept of Biochem & Biophys tomorrow!

Look out for Katie Copley's talk NANO53.08: 'Developing RNA therapeutics for TDP-43 proteinopathy in ALS/FTD' in the Nanosymposium NANO53: TDP-43, Tau, and Synuclein Proteinopathies: Mechanisms and Therapeutics tomorrow at 8:00AM- 11:30AM in WCC 207A Society for Neuroscience (SfN) Penn NGG #SfN2023

We made it to the newsletter! #Germany #Mexico Penn Postdoctoral Association

Happy holidays from the Shorter lab!

So excited to share this! We discuss the role of nuclear-import receptors in controlling and chaperoning phase transitions associated with ALS & FTD. Great collaboration between the Wilfried Rossoll & ShorterLab! Molecular Neurodegeneration The ALS Association Penn Medicine Mayo Clinic Neuro

Today marks the 9th annual International Day of Women and Girls in Science. We are proud to support the women who are working each day to discover a cure for #ALS. Read more: bit.ly/fellowship-rec…

RNA modulates hnRNPA1A amyloid formation mediated by biomolecular condensates. Congratulations Chiara Morelli and the team. Nature Chemistry, D-CHAB nature.com/articles/s4155…

❗️pH matters❗️ Excited to share that my first co-corresponding author paper is out in Developmental Cell! 🔬We've uncovered an evolutionarily conserved mechanism regulating amyloid formation and disassembly via pH-sensing regions in yeast & humans. Check it out😊 authors.elsevier.com/a/1j8Mj5Sx5gxk…

Postdoc.Mobility: fellowships for researchers after the doctorate who wish to gain more in-depth knowledge in their field and become more scientifically independent. The new call will be open until 2 August 2024. sohub.io/dvcj
