Tenure! Been dreamin’ of this for a long time, and now it feels a bit like the one figure that summarizes years of experiments, only on steroids 😀 A GIANT THANK YOU to all my lab members, trainees, mentors, colleagues, friends, and especially my family who made this possible.

My lab was totally destroyed tonight by an Iranian missile. Nobody was hurt. Flies, plasmids, cells, equipment - all gone. Heart breaking. If during the course of the past 16 years, you have received something from my lab - please keep them safe.

New preprint!
How do transcription factors (TFs) use intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) to find their target sites?

How do different sources of variation, acting on distinct timescales, integrate to shape behavioral diversity?
It was a pleasure writing this review with @MeitalOren and Steve Flavell.

Very excited to share the first paper from my lab. We engineered a new PTEN sensor that permits dynamic imaging in living cells. We showed that this allows to visualize PTEN activity with subcellular resolution in the intact brain. Now published in Nature Methods

We’re thrilled to share our new paper! 🎉
This study reveals how the lncRNA NORAD interacts with STAT3 to regulate the antiviral response.
Congratulations to Amir and the entire team for their incredible work!

It’s hard to imagine new discoveries about the NMDA receptor, one of the most studied molecules in #Neuroscience. But the brilliant minds in my lab—Antonella Ruggiero @AlLeN_OtNa_85, @LeoreHeim, and @LeeSusman—are here to surprise you! 👇
