Happy to have contributed in a small way to this spectacular study from Aakriti Jain and Roberto Zoncu identifying LyLAP as a protease for hydrophobic TM domains in the lysosome. Upregulated in PDAC, LyLAP safeguards lysosomes from membrane damage. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Excited to share our latest review "Lysosomal Repair in Health and Disease". We summarized how cells repair lysosomal damage via 4 distinct strategies and discussed the implications for aging, neurodegeneration, cancer, infection, and more. Open access: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jc…

Last week, Mosaic won 1st place in the AI demo competition at SaaStr Annual — beating out hundreds of other AI startups in one of the world's largest software conferences. Beyond the prizes that come with winning, presenting at SaaStr was a high visibility opportunity that put

My lab's first paper is out in nature. We show that lipoprotein uptake protects tumors from ferroptosis by delivering the lipid antioxidant α-tocopherol. Surprisingly, tumors use sulfated glycosaminoglycans—not canonical receptors—to capture lipoproteins. nature.com/articles/s4158…

When #AlphaFold2 came out, we wondered: Could it help us understand how enzymes evolve? So we tried it—and it worked! nature.com/articles/s4158…
