This week, hundreds of African scientists turned up in-person and virtually in Kenya for the 2nd edition of the African BioGenome Project African BioGenome Project Open Institute East and Central Africa Regional Workshop 2024. Prof Anne Muigai

Excited about this paper Cell Reports by Alex Drainas Alexandros Drainas in the lab, with help from Michael C Bassik for screens. Alex found that the WEE1 kinase inhibitor AZD1775 can activate the GCN2 kinase, which contributes to the anti-SCLC effects of AZD1775: tinyurl.com/5n7kapd7

A new paper in Nature Aging suggests age-related changed are nonlinear, and change id most rapid around ages 45 and 60. As someone rapidly approaching the first, biggest hump: gulp! They did thousands of measurements, and these graphs show how many change at different ages:

*someone has cited your work* 🎉 "As they idiotically and unattractively argue..." 😐

Happy Halloween from the Attardi lab!

Something that's been on my mind: why doesn't ozempic (and diets generally) produce lasting effects? Here they find that fat cells have a 'memory' of past states that causes a rebound after diet (the dreaded yo-yo) nature.com/articles/s4158…

Thrilled to say I passed my viva with no corrections and am officially PhDone.

Trump's proposal is ILLEGAL & amounts to an indiscriminate funding cut for research centers of all sizes, NOT just Ivies. It will mean shuttering labs across the country, layoffs in red & blue states, & derailing lifesaving research on everything from cancer to opioid addiction.

The indiscriminate and ill-conceived slashing of indirects by the NIH yesterday must be amended if want to restore America’s leadership role biomedical research. 15% simply isn’t enough for institutions to provide the basic infrastructure needed to run a successful lab. I say
