“I felt that chemistry would explain the diversity of materials and substances in the natural world in a way that Physics would not...” #DEB263 news.abs-cbn.com/news/07/20/19/…

As someone who spent 4 nights in a hospital due to dengue and a week off of work due to chikungunya, this subject is close to heart. #DEB263 sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/…

Hard to imagine that this cute little axolotl has 10x larger genome than humans and may hold the key to effective damaged tissue repair/regeneration in humans. #DEB263 sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/…

The Beal lab’s crystal “structure or ADAR bound to double-stranded RNA made the system more understandable and enabled scientists to better engineer the enzyme to enhance its delivery or make it more efficient.” #DEB263 nature.com/articles/d4158…

Achievement unlocked. First time presenting my research in an international setting. It was an honor to meet and talk about my work with some pioneers and experts in the base editing field and hear about some really cool science! #Deaminet2022

And there’s my pink Cy3-labeled oligo that I synthesized and posted about a while ago! These are actually brain cells that I transfected, stained, and viewed under a fluorescence microscope. My oligos are the pink dots against the green (cytoplasm) and blue (nucleus) background.

Next time you're in a room (real or virtual) with a bunch of people who you look up to, take a moment to stop, look around, and remind yourself "I belong here."

First thing that comes to my mind when I see plate numbers starting with ACP**** => acyl-carrier proteins. This is bad. #biochemislife

Watching Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on HBO. Beyond the Veil - always the most painful chapter of Book 5. 😭😭😭 #potterhead
