Students from @TorontoMetSci are running in the Canadian Cancer Society CIBC Run for the Cure this weekend. If you are able to, consider donating to support their efforts!.

Don't miss out on an opportunity to give a talk at a great meeting at the Ontario Cell Biology Symposium on Aug12-13. The deadline to submit an abstract to be considered for a talk is Monday August 8th. Lots of talk slots available to students, postdocs, and ECRs!.

It's time to register and submit your abstract for the 2024 Ontario Cell Biology Symposium (Aug 12-13 in Guelph)!. Priority will be given for students, postdocs, and ECRs to give talks, and lots of opportunities for poster presentations. . Please RT!.

@SRC_CRS This work is part of a great collaboration with @gingraslab1, Geoff Hesketh, @Botelho_Lab & @SfnImpellizzeri with key contributions from Ose Ibazebo, @as_sumaiya, and @sjamesbautista.

@SRC_CRS We also find evidence that this novel GATOR1/2- GSKβ nutrient sensing pathway controls cell survival under low nutrient conditions, which could reveal new strategies to target certain tumors.

@SRC_CRS What is unique about amino acid control of GSKβ is that this regulation is independent of mTORC1, and hence this signaling pathway controlling GSKβ deviates from the canonical GATOR1/2-RagA/B-mTORC1 signaling pathway.

@SRC_CRS Specifically, we found that the nuclear levels of GSKβ are controlled by amino acid availability and required the amino acid signaling complexes GATOR1 and GATOR2.

@SRC_CRS Previous work showed that targeting of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSKβ) to the nucleus under specific conditions gates the ability of GSKβ to control transcription factors like c-myc. We now find that cues derived from cell metabolism regulate the nuclear levels of GSKβ.

I am delighted to share our latest preprint!. In this work led by Diana Schwendener Forkel and supported by @SRC_CRS, we find a new mechanism by which cells adapt to changing nutrient availability to promote cell survival.

RT @ChemistryTA: I'm looking for a postdoc to join my team! We're starting a new project in point-of-care diagnostics with close collaborat….

Calling all cell biologists 🧪🦠🔬👩‍🔬 in and around Ontario!. The 6th annual Ontario Cell Biology Symposium will be on Aug 12-13 in Guelph, so save the date!. Please RT and share.

A real pleasure to hear all about #pannexins in cancer in a great seminar by @DrSilviaPenuela during her visit to TMU this week!

My 12 yo came home from school today and declared the start of the Great Relax. This generation gets it. Happy holidays y’all!

A reflection on today’s prize announcement: we are seldom able to accurately predict the long-term impact of sound science in the short term. Something to keep in mind when reviewing or assessing work by our peers and colleagues.

RT @ImogenRCoePhD: Not today. Not tomorrow. #NoSpaceForHate forever

A fantastic first day at the Ontario Cell Biology Symposium #OCBS2023! Amazing talks, great science, looking forward to day 2.

If you haven't registered for the Ontario Cell Biology Symposium yet, there's still time! . See to register . ➡️ Some limited spots are still available for poster presentation, so submit an abstract and present your work if you haven't already!.

Don't miss out on early registration discount and being considered for a talk at the 2023 Ontario Cell Biology Symposium! Deadline July 7th. This will be a great meeting, hope to see you there!.
