For sure one of the most important and impactful conversations I had in my personal and professional career has been with Gaymon Bennett and Barry Brown. If you are like me and felt that soul was missing in your line of work as a #scientist, you need to listen to what Barry and

Your favorite poster presenter is here🙋🏻‍♀️😅 So excited to do a poster presentation on my PhD project titled as “Enhanced Zinc-finger based epigenetic modulator as next generation immunosuppressant”🤩 (study by kiani lab Samira Kiani ) at Pitt school of medicine retreat.

it's a pleasure to share our lab preprint on “Modelling Human Post-Implantation Development via Extra-Embryonic Niche Engineering” ! It is timely considering recent works reported from labs of Zernicka-Goetz Lab Jacob (Yaqub) Hanna - يعقوب حنا ISSCR #ISSCR2023. See below. I hope you will enjoy the work!

Since the discovery of CRISPR-Cas systems, people have wondered if a similar type of system exists in eukaryotes. Today, we report in nature the characterization of Fanzor, a eukaryotic RNA-guided system that can be reprogrammed for human genome editing. nature.com/articles/s4158…

I’m excited to share that our paper is now out in nature. This is the fruit of years of hard work led by my colleague Mo Ebrahimkhani and his team on “Modeling Post-implantation Human Development to Yolk Sac Blood Emergence”. I encourage you to give it a read.
