@jpvincentlab @AlexGouldLab @epiddin @OttolineLeyser Congratulations! Well deserved!

It is an honour to receive the Waddington Medal. Thank you all for the lovely messages, and a special heartfelt thanks to my nominators, @AlexGouldLab @epiddin and @OttolineLeyser .

@nkonst4 @itiniakou @SciImmunology @ScienceMagazine Congrats @itiniakou !

Very happy to see this paper by @itiniakou and co-authors published in @SciImmunology and highlighted in the @ScienceMagazine webpage! In it, they identify Trim33 (amongst others) as a key regulator of dendritic cell differentiation using genomic screens and in vivo experiments.

@SarahBowling15 @DevBioStanford Congratulations!

Very happy to have started my lab at Stanford @DevBioStanford earlier this month. We will be studying mammalian embryo development, plasticity and resilience. Check out our new website for more details: bowlinglab.org

Stem cell differentiation involves passing through a reversible "licensing" (aka "specification") step, which we don't understand well. Why does this exist? @RGarciaTejera may have an explanation, from his modelling work predicting how the stem cell pool is impacted.

@twi_tobi @Borkhardt_Lab @Hemasphere_EHA @UniklinikDUS @HHU_de so glad to see this is helpful!

@Borkhardt_Lab @Hemasphere_EHA @UniklinikDUS @HHU_de involving the best team, humanized ReDDM flies and ERK sensor transgenics @twi_tobi @AmoyelLab

@TanentzapfLab or you can't even publish it cause "it's not of general interest" according to an editor

As a model organism geneticist if you try to publish a result confirming the established model in the field is true in an actual living organism reviewers tell you “we already knew that” and if you publish result disproving the established model they say “we don’t believe you”.

@LabRawlins @GurdonInstitute Has to be done! The rules are any time in January is still OK - bakeries sell it for the whole month. And definitely need someone under the table.

Galette de Rois for a slightly late French epiphany celebration in the lab. Thanks to Florence @GurdonInstitute

@realRihellab Maybe it's a hint? It'll clearly get you lots of citations...

Google Bard's suggestion for a citation I never wrote, with many people I don't know: Title: Monitoring sleep and arousal in zebrafish Authors: Rihel J, Prober DA, Arrenkiel A, Sokolowski K, Foster CA, et al. Journal: Neuroprotocols 2(4): e2009.38 (2009)

Therefore, we suggest that CK2 activity in stem cells maintains eIF4F-dependent translation through eIF3d phosphorylation. This leads to a selective translation programme, that changes upon loss of niche signals.

So we hypothesise that the phosphorylation of eIF3d is a way to strengthen the eIF3-eIF4F interaction. Indeed, work by Mykola in the @TelemanLab shows that CK2 inhibition weakens the interaction between eIF3d and eIF4F.

New lab preprint! Very excited to share this work, led by Ruoxu Wang. We study how stem cell fate is controlled post-transcriptionally and find a new regulator of translation initiation: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

This is a great opportunity to join our lab (or others, there are some) for a funded PhD. Applications due early Jan, so get in touch if interested.

@joadelas Yes!

Anyone else in here still hoping to join the other blue place?

@ErikaKague @VersusArthritis @UoE_CGEM @KagueLab Congrats!

First Postdoc paper, first 🦓🐟 paper, first journal cover! 🥳 🎶On the fourth day of Christmas, Dev Cell gave to me: An improved Erk biosensor that detects oscillatory Erk dynamics driven by mitotic erasure during early development🎶 cell.com/developmenta...
