Thrilled to share this #lipidtime story in @JCellBiol where, led by Shiying Huang and in collaboration with Tamas Balla’s lab, we uncover plasticity in phospholipid metabolism to preserve plasma membrane identity and integrity in the face of disease-relevant perturbations!

Hey friends, we're hiring over here at Princeton BioE! In addition to the usual positions (faculty, grad students, postdocs), BioE is looking for a Program Manager to oversee big multi-PI projects (e.g. DARPA, ARPA-H). Pass along & apply if interested! apply.interfolio.com/187973

The last leg of my trip to Japan was at the 55th Naito Conference on Chemical Biology: inspiring science in beautiful Hokkaido at the incomparable Chateraisé Gateaux Kingdom — a 3-in-1 hotel, spa, and sweets factory. I’ve been surrounded by so many delicious lipids all week! 🤤

Excited and grateful to have been promoted to Professor. Many thanks to the outstanding students and postdocs in my lab and to my colleagues at Cornell and across the #chembio and #lipidtime communities for your continued support!

@RyosukeKojima4 @UTokyo_News @MizLabUT I enjoyed our discussion immensely, Ryosuke, and I hope that you feel better soon!

@basktastic @UTokyo_News @MizLabUT This is Ryosuke Kojima from UTokyo. Thank you for visiting UTokyo, and it was a great pleasure to e-meet and discuss with you! I’m sorry I could only join online due to illness, but I truly enjoyed our fruitful discussion. I look forward to meeting you in person next time!

Fantastic #lipidtime conversations yesterday at @UTokyo_News — thank you to @MizLabUT for hosting my visit!

What do lipid droplets do in neurons? Thrilled to share the 🌟1st preprint from my lab, led by Eleni Katafygiotou, showing activity-dependent formation of neuronal LDs in vitro and in vivo, and the impact of LD modulation on neuronal function and behavior. biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Today’s impressive lineup of speakers include former awardees of The Ono Initiative Jonathan Long @longlabstanford, Yamuna Krishnan @UChiChemistry, Xiaoyu Zhang @NorthwesternU, @fordycelab, @basktastic, @StacyMalaker, and @angadmehta as well as keynote speaker @ChemicalBiology!

Goodbye Dresden and Pillnitz! Had a blast @mpicbg and the ESBOC annual bioorganic chemistry meeting — a #lipidtime #chembio 1-2 👊. Thanks to @nadlerlab and Ben Schumann for the invitation, great to see @FiedlerLab @FedorovaLab and other friends!

Thrilled to welcome @mbogyo, @danetteldaniels, @SlavoffL, and Marcey Waters to @CornellChem for today’s annual Chemistry-Biology Interface Symposium!

I had a blast visiting the @omenndarlingbio @Princeton yesterday! Thanks so much to @tinakim_neuro for hosting my visit! @christhechang @KleinerLabRNA

Hello, @Princeton! Excited for my visit to @omenndarlingbio tomorrow 😃

Special day @CornellChem: welcoming back PhD alum Xiaoyu Zhang (Hening Lin lab) from @NUChemistry for a phenomenal seminar on targeted protein degradation and chemical immunology!
