@virologistjoe Brilliant!

@chaolinzhang @NIH @NIGMS @ColumbiaPS Congratulations!!

Just received the NoA of our @NIH @NIGMS #MIRA/#r35 grant, which will consolidate our studies at the intersection of #RNA splicing & evolution. I am grateful for all the support from @NIGMS, the reviewers, and other colleagues! Credit goes to all lab members👇 @ColumbiaPS

@csfacultyjobs Thank you!

Good luck and good vibes to all the folks on the job market this year. Now back to your usual mostly-automated programming!

With the CS job market picking up again, a reminder on how this account works: - Jobs posted on CRA or AJO will be tweeted here automatically! 🤖 - I'll retweet relevant jobs posted elsewhere -- just @ this account, or send a DM with a link to your tweet (not to the job post)!

The Orca manuscript for multiscale 3D genome modeling is now out at Nature Genetics go.nature.com/3M8w00B. Original tweet thread below. Also giving a talk about Orca at ISCB academy in a week.

@virologistjoe @ScienceMagazine @innalax Awesome!

@zhou_jian Congrats, next dinner on you!

Very glad to share that our lab has received the NIH Director’s New Innovator award! We are looking for researchers at multiple levels to join us zhoulab.io. commonfund.nih.gov/newinnovator/A… congratulations to fellow recipients!

The new study is the first to look at the impact of mutations in these target sites across the whole genome of people with conditions such as schizophrenia, depression or autism bit.ly/autism_RBPs

Mutations that disrupt binding sites in RNA molecules may contribute to autism and a variety of psychiatric conditions, according to a new study bit.ly/autism_RBPs

An excellent article on our work led by @pazpark demonstrating the major role that deregulation of RBP target sites plays in psychiatric conditions. All predictions shared at hb.flatironinstitute.org/seqweaver

Out today from @OlgaTroyanskaya and colleagues: Genome-wide landscape of RNA-binding protein target site dysregulation reveals a major impact on psychiatric disorder risk | go.nature.com/3bRNkYO

@pazpark demonstrates major role of post-transcriptional dysregulation in psychiatric disorders - focusing on variants that disrupt RNA-binding protein binding sites.

I was thinking about some of the comments I received on my F32 NIH postdoctoral fellowship application from 6-7 years ago. It’s surprising how frustrated I still get when I think about it. A thread... 1/

Rest in power, RBG... I’m crying... what a mind, a person, a woman, a justice, her legacy is truly immense!

Containing the virus with a two-day work week. 5 lockdown days a week. May eradicate the epidemic while maintaining sustainable reduced economic activity. @urialonw/containing-sars-cov-2-with-a-two-day-workweek-fbdea4030d30" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@urialonw/cont…

Excellent!!! Now get 10,000 random samples Pool every 100 Most pools should now be negative If not, either your system doesn't work, or it may actually be good news... (many are infected but relatively few showing symptoms)

This is the scene at O’Hare airport. The traveler who took the photo said it’s a 6-hour wait for bags then on to customs for 2-4 more of waiting in shoulder-to-shoulder crowds. Police are handing out water and disinfectant wipes. @fly2ohare #ord #coronavirus #COVID19
