Grateful to be featured by the @VanderbiltU in their 'Beyond the Postdoc' series. If you're a postdoc and looking for some perspective, keep reading until the end - I share a few reflections and pieces of advice that helped me along the way. vanderbilt.edu/postdoc/rupind…

1. For lots of people the hardest part of the paper to write is the discussion. Here is a a very brief guide: Paragraph 1: is a restatements of the two or three most important conclusions (starting with "here we showed", each conclusion gets 2-4 sentences).

New @SciSignal research reveals that a chemical widely used to inhibit enzymes called protein tyrosine phosphatases also activates different enzymes called protein tyrosine kinases, potentially confounding some experiments. scim.ag/467AlNC

Science is generally wondrous. Yet the paper (out in a few weeks) that this Preview covers is one of the biggest WOW moments of my career. Illustrious credit to @KaurTweets who dreamed it and to the team. With the evidence, we end a debate on the nature of a key symbiotic trait.

#Wolbachia has puzzled us with its power to rewire host reproduction. What if I tell you we found one of the keys Wolbachia use to rewire its host AND a small molecule can use this key to mimic what this microbe has mastered for millions of years. cell.com/cell-reports/f…

This project wouldn't have been possible w/o @Symbionticism and his unwavering support, my undergrad student Mahip Kalra for relentless troubleshooting efforts that brought the chemical experiments to life, and the incredible Lab team for their timely help every step of the way!

Why does it matter to mimic symbiotic trait? 👉 develops symbiont-independent toolkit for insect population control 👉 expands symbiont-based biocontrol method to species that can't be infected w the bacterium 👉 inspires ways to study how epigenetics shape host–symbiont biology

Happy to share that I’ll be joining @thisisUIC as an Asst. Prof. in Jan 2026! My lab will explore the epi/genetic principles of host–microbe interactions, symbiosis, and vector biology. We’ll be hiring postdocs and techs—details & lab website coming soon! bios.uic.edu/news-stories/m…

@owlstown Yeah, that's what I'm realizing. I see full image nicely placed on my phone screen, but on the laptop, it looks weird with an auto-adjusted view. Thought of asking, thanks though!

@KaurTweets Positioning in the banner is hard because the aspect ratio of the banner changes depending on the width of the screen, so even if you can nudge the position of the image in a particular screen width, the positioning may still not work in other screen widths.

@owlstown Hi! Is it possible to add an edit option to adjust the positioning of the banner image?
