@bradylabupenn @ASBMB Congrats Donita, you are an amazing person!

Grateful to @ASBMB for this extraordinary honor and to the colleagues who nominated me. This recognition means a great deal because it affirms something I believe deeply: talent is universal, but access is not.

Another great paper from a great lab! Congrats @MichaelImbeault

@JuanAlvarezDom 😍

Researchers in Science have created “cyborg” pancreatic organoids that combine stretchy miniature electronics with stem cell-derived pancreatic islets, using the implanted electronics to monitor electrical activity related to glucose regulation in maturing α and β cells. The "cyborg" organoids offer a path to study the biology and trace the maturation of α and β cells at the single-cell level, with an eye toward potentially treating or engineering new pancreatic islets in people with diabetes.

@PennMedCSO @bradylabupenn @Penn_CBIO @RTAatPennMed @ASBMB Congrats Donita!!!!

Congratulations to @bradylabupenn (@Penn_CBIO/ @RTAatPennMed), recipient of the 2026 @ASBMB Ruth Kirschstein Maximizing Access in Science Award! tinyurl.com/2s83nn48

In 1983 Barbara McClintock was awarded an unshared #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine. McClintock discovered 'jumping genes' in corn, and proved that chunks of genetic code can change position on a chromosome, affecting genetic expression.

Ditto!

👇Today @5:30pm #cellbio2025 Workshop: Methods to Accelerate iPSC-derived Disease Modeling and Therapeutics - looking forward!

Looking Forward to @inspirecommunity.bsky.social's inaugural JOURNEY TALK next Tues Dec 16th by @MustafaMir16 , Assistant Prof.@CHOP_Research @PennMedicine and @hhmi_science Freeman Hrabowski Scholar, who will talk about his research, personal journey, and career path!

How has it already been 2 weeks since our #EREHD25 meeting in Mexico! 🇲🇽 We are still reminiscing over the great memories and amazing science that was shared. A final big congratulations to our 4 poster prize winners, and a thank you to everyone who joined us 💜

A fantastic gathering of researchers at #EREHD25 😊💜 We are grateful for all the insightful talks, lively discussions, and new collaborations that emerged over these past few days! Rosie has truly loved working alongside Ting, Tao, Kate & Hui on this wonderful meeting #FusionCommunity

Remembering the first woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize, the first individual to be awarded two Nobel Prizes and still today the only individual with two Nobel Prizes in two different scientific categories: Marie Skłodowska Curie. Curie was born #OnThisDay in 1867.
