Patrick Lusk

We’re looking for an Associate Director to help lead our graduate program! A PhD in a scientific field preferred but if you are highly organized and enjoy working with students, please apply! @YaleGenetics @MCDB_Yale us.bebee.com/job/85d1e571b4…

The university will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights. Neither Harvard nor any other private university can allow itself to be taken over by the federal government. hrvd.me/ResearchFundin…

Finally, some strength.

About a month after Donald Trump took office as the 47th US president, almost all grant-review meetings remain suspended at the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), preventing the world’s largest public funder of biomedical research from spending much of its US$47 billion annual budget. go.nature.com/4k8Njjx

My last post on this platform: for anyone that is terrified about the administration’s assault on science - come out on Wednesday evening!

@JezCarlton @PhilipMannino1 @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab Thanks Jez, appreciate!

@Plusk4u @PhilipMannino1 @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab Great work, Patrick, this is lovely!

Rejuvenating the inner nuclear membrane? We show that nuclear autophagy proceeds through a lumenal vesicle intermediate and requires the dynamin-like 1 fission machinery. Congrats to @PhilipMannino1 and colleagues @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab nature.com/articles/s4155…

@LabVon @PhilipMannino1 @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab Thanks Julia!

This is a list of blockbuster drugs in 2024. Guess how many can trace their origins to NIH funded research? All of them.

Another big blow to the U.S. competitiveness in STEM. In comparison, the Chinese government lists biomed/biotech as one of few strategic areas and has steadily increased R&D funding year by year at a rate of ~10% per year even during economic slowdown.

@HenneLab @PhilipMannino1 @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab Thanks Mike!

@Plusk4u @PhilipMannino1 @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab Congrats!

@Neal_Lab @Yale @moitrayee_lab @AilongK @CandieDandie Great to meet you! Hope your trip back was less political…

Only picture I took during my seminar visit at MB&B @Yale! Very quick trip but grateful for Mark Hochstrasser being an amazing host. Enjoyed meeting trainees and faculty @Dridychuk @moitrayee_lab @AilongK @CandieDandie @Plusk4u and reconnecting with grad student @LaurenThornto and colleagues @Bahmanyarlab and @BinyamMogessie♥️ Until next time!

Bridge-like lipid transfer protein 3A (BLTP3A) is associated with membranes of the late endocytic pathway and is an effector of CASM biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
