Excited to share that the first paper from the Isom lab is now available on Biorxiv! (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…). We have investigated YhdP at the molecular level to show that it forms an envelope-spanning bridge and that putative phospholipids are found inside this bridge!

Delighted to introduce Dr. Ilmain (@Julianailmain), the newly minted PhD student from the Torres lab @nyugrossman. She crushed her thesis defense yesterday. 🍾. Thanks to the superstar co-mentor team of @BhabhaEkiertLab. Part of her thesis work should be in press very soon.

I’m proud to present our latest work on the #cryoEM structure of the RodA-PBP2 complex in E. coli, which is out in @NatureComms today! In this work we used an interdisciplinary approach to shed light on the structural basis of peptidoglycan biosynthesis. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Check out the second half of my PhD thesis work, recently published in JBC, here! We utilized a combination of computational and experimental approaches to decipher the transient protein-protein interactions made while transporting lipids across the bacterial cell envelope! 😊

Disappointed that @nyuniversity would deny bonuses to graduate researchers who are among the most vulnerable to economic hardship in the wake of the pandemic & that admin would rather split hairs on semantics of FTEs than support the ppl carrying on their sacred academic mission
NYU Researchers United-UAW@nyuresearchers

Great news! NYU will now extend COVID bonuses to postdoctoral fellows, just two weeks after we began circulating our open letter for recognition of all NYU researchers. Read the letter here 👇 (1/7) docs.google.com/document/d/1Ds…

This Zoom was the most surreal 90 minutes of my time in grad school. Our head of HR really said that it was hypocritical that Sabatini's accuser (a trainee) wasn't also terminated. If any incoming students want to chat my DMs are open, and I'm so sorry. nyunews.com/news/2022/04/2…

@nyugrossman students and faculty walkout in protest against the hiring of David Sabatini. Our responsibility is empowerment of women in science and guaranteeing a safe and respectful work environment for all.
