Congratulations, Dr. Morakabi! @KatayounMoraka1 #phdone We couldn't have asked for a better scientist, student, friend, or person to work with! You will be missed.

Check out our latest paper by first author @JoyShaffer17. We show how RanGTP partially releases H2A-H2B from Importin-9... just enough that H2A-H2B can release to an assembling nucleosome. Read for free for the next 50 days: authors.elsevier.com/a/1hJ-F3SNvc6n…

Here we are!

Having a great time at ASMS 2023! #IMSC2024

Hats off to all our graduates who received their doctoral hoods during a ceremony last week 🎉 #utdgrad 🎓 — [Photos of various graduates smiling and receiving their hoods]

One of the most detailed models of a human cell obtained using X-ray, NMR, and cryoelectron microscopy: #biology

📣New paper! In a collaborative effort lead by Jeannine Diesch, we found synergy between CBP/p300 inhibitors and azacytidine. When dissecting the mechanism, we were up for a surprise. Out today in @NatureComms: nature.com/articles/s4146… Tweetorial!👇

Graduate student Ben Patty and I wrote a review on nucleosome remodelers and non-coding RNAs. Check it out and let us know what you think! mdpi.com/2079-7737/9/8/…

Congratulations on earning your #PhD, @royalprithwi! Here's a graduation message from @KatayounMoraka1! #CongratsBMBgrads @DArcy_Lab_UTD @UTDResearch

Congrats to all Spring '20 Grads. #oneUTD #proudPI #utdallas @royalprithwi @adam_timmerman

Yay! Our first PhD Graduate. He is a great scientist, a great mentor, and an all round great human being. He has been with the lab since day one. He helped set up SO many things and always with a smile. Stay tuned for his major paper on histone chaperones and acetyltransferases.

Congratulations to recent @UT_Dallas graduate, Victoria Neumann! @DArcy_Lab_UTD @UTDResearch #CongratsBMBgrads

Congratulations, Adam Timmerman! Here's a graduation message from @KatayounMoraka1! #CongratsBMBgrads @DArcy_Lab_UTD @UTDResearch

The entire lab together at one time! Looking forward to building a positive team atmosphere and having a fun and productive 2020! Science is so fun!

There has been justifiable anger over mischaracterization of Rosalind Franklin's data as "confirming" the Watson-Crick DNA model. The model was actually based in part on her famous photograph 51, which they used without her knowledge and without attribution. I'll explain 1/n

So excited to work with @trangthng as she embarks on a PhD in our lab. She has already proven to be a force for good! 😄
