Check out our highlight of the most recent example of subcellular mitochondrial specialization in @CurrentBiology. Be sure to also check out the beautiful work from David Sherwood's lab cell.com/current-biolog…

Match Day!! So proud of my former MSTP grad student!!! Francisco matched at Yale in Anesthesiology!!! Everyone in the Weaver lab is so proud of you Francisco!!!

We find UBR-5 E3 ligase connects proteostasis to stemness and motility in aging... link.growkudos.com/1dwpy0mrsow

@ScienceMagazine Dancing sea turtles!! science.org/content/articl…

@ScienceMagazine Just watching this makes you smile 😀

These sea turtles dance for joy when they magnetically sense it’s snack time. Learn more on #WorldTurtleDay: scim.ag/4hZLGDf

@KatsuFunai @JudithSimcox @NatMetabolism @BellafanteElena Congrats on the cover!

Our paper made the cover @NatMetabolism! Thanks for picking us @BellafanteElena nature.com/natmetab/volum…

@PNASNews Very intriguing!! Still so much to learn about plasticity!!

A study finds evidence for the hypothesis that selection on ancestral phenotypic plasticity may precede the evolution of novel traits, using as a case study the evolution of cannibalism in the tadpoles of the spadefoot toad. In PNAS: ow.ly/bpl050VLkX1

@dlkober @UTSWScience Awesome story! Congrat's Dan, Noam, Ashley, and team!!

@bsabari Awesome! Congrats Ben, Heankel, and team!

I am excited to share the latest paper from my lab where we leverage the selection bias of condensate-promoting oncofusions to uncover molecular rules governing condensate specificity and function. cell.com/cell/fulltext/….

@MegeneyLab Thanks Lynn!!

Great career perspective in Nature Metabolism from Dr Ben Weaver rdcu.be/ejc9u.

Principal Investigator Yuh Min Chook (@yuhminchook) and researchers at @UTSWMedCenter advance our understanding of the diversity of signals that drive nuclear export and how cargo phosphorylation is crucial in regulating nuclear transport and controlling cellular signaling pathways. #Abs1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nature.com/articles/s4146…

Absolutely honored! Just got featured in #career pathways along with Leah at @NatMetabolism Find it here rdcu.be/eiyGG #metabolism #ageing #aging #proteostasis

@PeterLyLab @JustinEngel17 @UTSWMedCenter @UTSWCancerBio Congrat's to Justin and Ly lab!!

Our very own Justin Engel (@JustinEngel17) received the 2025 Nominata Award, the highest honor for a grad student at @UTSWMedCenter. He also received the Kirkpatrick Prize, which is given to the student with the most meritorious NIH NRSA proposal. Congrats Justin!! @UTSWCancerBio

@UCR_ScienceNews @UCRiverside @SihemCheloufi @UCRCNAS @CIRMnews @GenesDev @_reubenfranklin Exciting story! Congrats!

#Scientists @UCRiverside have discovered how adult #stemcells retain their regenerative power. news.ucr.edu/articles/2025/… @SihemCheloufi @UCRCNAS @CIRMnews @GenesDev @_reubenfranklin #aging #disease #regenerativemedicine

I am beyond thrilled to become a Searle Scholar! Thank you @CRI_UTSW, @SJMorrison_ @RalphDeBerardinis (no longer on X), @RobertoZoncu for all your support and mentorship!

In this month's Editorial we discuss why basic research is the backbone of advances in medicine and improvements to the human condition - and that basic research needs essential support from government funding. nature.com/articles/s4159…

G&D’s Editor-In-Chief, Professor Andy Dillin is attending the 2025 @ASBMB Annual Meeting in Chicago. #ASBMB25 #MakeItPossible If you’d like to share your work with us or learn about the journal, feel free to drop by or reach out at dillin@berkeley.edu @GenesDev @dillinlab

It was a lot of fun today getting to talk with the students about life and career challenges! Thanks Arnaldo and Leah for hosting this! x.com/ADiaz_PhD/stat…

@ADiaz_PhD @UTSWGradSchool @RTPatUTSW @GDDgradprogUTSW @CmbUtsw @UTSWMedCenter @utswpda @UTSWPostdocs It was a lot of fun today getting to talk with the students about life and career challenges! Thanks Arnaldo and Leah for hosting this!

We cordially invite our community to our upcoming STORIES event on April 8. Join us as we welcome Dr. Benjamin Weaver, who will share his inspiring journey in science. Check out the flyer for details.
