Hi twitter, our lab is actively seeking candidates for two fully funded postdoctoral research fellowship positions in molecular metabolism. Please retweet and spread the word, thank you!!!

A guest day visitor in the office today!!! 🐾🐾

Amazing job Wei!!!!!

So excited to have this work finally out!! Thank you to all my lab mates and collaborators, this wouldn’t have been possible without you!!

Thank you Gretchen Reynolds of The New York Times for the fun phone call and this fantastic writeup about Lac-Phe Sarafan ChEM-H Stanford Pathology Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance nytimes.com/2022/06/15/wel…

Happening today at 10am- Wei’s oral thesis defense in Sarafan ChEM-H E-153!!! Stanford Pathology Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute

Congratulations Julia Tanzo, Carolyn Bertozzi alum, leading the charge with Robert Gerszten and Mark Benson. Lesson learned: to understand the relevance to humans, start by studying people Stanford Pathology Sarafan ChEM-H jbc.org/article/S0021-…

So excited that this work from my gap years has been published! Huge thank you to everyone who helped with this project.

Here we show that prior to 2022, the metabolite Lac-Phe was mis-annotated in Metabolon, Inc. datasets as “1-carboxyethylphenylalanine.” We use this information to identify physiologic urine Lac-Phe transporters. Incredible detective work by Veronica Li biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share our work on the CRBN-dependent molecular glue degraders of WEE1 derived from a multicomponent library! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congratulations to ⁦Dr. Veronica Li⁩ on a successful thesis defense!!! 🎉🎉 ⁦Sarafan ChEM-H⁩ ⁦Stanford Chemistry⁩ ⁦Stanford Pathology⁩

Congratulations to our very own Dr Amanda Wiggenhorn on a successful thesis defense!!! Great talk and well done Sarafan ChEM-H Stanford Chemistry Stanford Pathology

Congratulations to Amanda Wiggenhorn and Veronica Li, the newest 2024 PhD graduates of Stanford Chemistry Stanford Medicine Sarafan ChEM-H We are all very proud of both of you. Congratulations and job well done 🎉🎉

Today in Cell we report a new pathway of ketone metabolism. This BHB shunt generates an orphan family of anorexigenic ketone metabolites that are chemical cousins of exercise-inducible Lac-Phe. Congratulations María D. Moya-Garzon Sarafan ChEM-H cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
