@SciBry It was lovely to meet you and learn about your exciting research!

Grateful for all the support from past/current mentors + an Awesome team @UCSCscience @Isobear1 @andrewolander4. Thank you @NIH @NCIResearchCtr for supporting our work! New long-term NIH grant supports breast cancer research news.ucsc.edu/2023/09/breast… via @ucsc

Excited to share our paper out online today! We labeled and tracked heritable non-genetic info transmitted from parents to their children. We found that starvation in ancestors leads to transgenerational phenotypes in naïve well-fed descendants, ... 1/9 #app2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Happy to share our new RNA liquid biopsy paper published today in Nature Biomedical Engineering @natBME! nature.com/articles/s4155… This study was led by my former PhD student & @NIH F99/K00 Fellow @ReggiardoRoman, now a postdoc with @HowardYChang @StanfordMed @HHMINEWS. A huge thank you to @AmericanCancer for funding this work through a Research Scholar award! @ACS_Research @ACSNews @ACSCAN @AmerCancerCEO @lwelmore0320 @BaskinEng @ucscgenomics @IBSC_UCSC @UCSC_Research @CanaryCenter

We have a complete #Ychromosome 🎉 It was the last human chromosome left unsequenced, but now the #T2Tconsortium led by UCSC & @genome_gov has finished it, revealing 41 additional genes! This will aid research on fertility and, believe it or not, bacteria. news.ucsc.edu/2023/08/t2t-y-…

My grandmother, who raised me, grew up in a village in Trinidad. She had to stop going to school at 11 years old to raise her younger siblings. She only has an elementary level education. So it means more than words for her to see her granddaughter as a college professor ❤️🥹

Especially in light of the Supreme Court decision banning race-based admissions, think how you can improve accessibility & equity of grad school admissions at your institution for talented early scientists from all historically marginalized groups. doi.org/10.1016/j.cell… 10/

What can you, your department, or your institution do? Here are suggestions for various levels of graduate program operations. Remember... *do not depend on grad student labor (esp. from underrepresented backgrounds) to fix problems w/ your program or admissions process* 9/

An incredible article, full of wisdom and important advice from the team @cientificolatin about the barriers that minority students face in grad school admissions! 🔥🔥🔥 so inspiring to see this published @CellCellPress 😮♥️

Interested in the role of extracellular vesicles in the nervous system? This meeting is for you!

Presenting the Colligan Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory, a new lab space focused on translating @ucscgenomics ’s cutting-edge genomic research tools into clinical care. Thank you to Rebecca and @collbud for their generous gift to make this lab a reality! molecular-diagnostics-lab.ucsc.edu

@BaskinEng @TheBrooksLab Congratulations, Angela!

🎉 Congratulations to Angela Brooks on her promotion to #BaskinEngineering full professor! @TheBrooksLab develops computational and experimental tools to investigate RNA splicing mutations in cancer cells and discover new ways to treat cancer. Learn more: brookslab.soe.ucsc.edu

We are thrilled to welcome the new dean of the @ucsc science division, Bryan Gaensler @SciBry, to the banana slug family starting today! We look forward to embarking on this new chapter under Gaensler’s visionary leadership. Please join us in giving him a warm welcome🌊🌲🍌🐌

Thrilled to get promoted to Full Professor @ucsc . Huge thanks to all the hard working members of the Carpenter lab past and present. I appreciate you all***

We are excited for @yvonne_vsqz to present her work at Cancer Genomics Consortium (CGC) this weekend! She will discuss Treehouse's collaboration with @StanfordChild for children with difficult-to-treat solid tumors. #CGCAnnual2023
