The SWI/SNF-related protein SMARCA3 is a histone H3K23 ubiquitin ligase that regulates H3K9me3 in cancer https://t.co/xpkbKT9KAw

Big day for the David lab! 🎉 Our @MolecularCell paper is out today- huge congrats to first authors @IfeAkano & Jake Hebert for leading this beautiful study uncovering SMARCA3 as a novel H3 E3 ligase that shapes heterochromatin regulation in colorectal cancer 🤩

So excited to share that the culmination of my PhD work is finally published! We uncovered a novel chromatin-regulating function for SMARCA3 through its maintenance of histone ubiquitination and methylation states in cancer.

Excited to share our new paper w/ David Lyden, @HanSangKim5 & Jackie Bromberg @WeillCornell led by the amazing Inbal Wortzel & @IfeAkano revealing a new & unexpected function for chromatin on the surface of exosomes in #cancer #metastasis @NatureCancer https://t.co/hoRmTTw9R6

🎉Congratulations to our fantastic #Epigen24 poster prize winners, Ifé Akano, Marissa Maroni & Freyda Lenihan-Geels 🎉 And another big thank you to Giacomo & Luciano for their continued support and organisation of this fantastic meeting! Always a pleasure to work with you both💜

What an incredible event🤩 So proud of @IfeAkano and @BelayViktor for putting this together!! Thank you @UshmaNeill @marcus_phd @ypcarrasco @ambwinst for your inspiring insights 🫶🏻 Thank you @HHMINEWS , @MSKCancerCenter and @WeillCornell for supporting! 🙏🏻

So excited to announce that my most recent work has been published. If you’re interested in genetically encoding circular mRNA, or packaging circular mRNA into virus-like particles for cell-type specific delivery, this paper is for you!

🚨Attn. senior undergrads & postbacs. If you're applying for biomedical PhD programs in this cycle consider our 3-day virtual event on Sept 12-14. We will share advice on crafting strong applications, receive individualized feedback & more. Apply by 8/31: https://t.co/irEusLUwXG

A huge congratulations to the 2023 cohort of #GilliamFellows! You did it and I am so proud of you! I look forward to meeting everyone in person and celebrating together soon 💚

Undergrads pursuing research are undersupported, underpaid, and overlooked. Let's change that. That's where we come in. DojoGrants is designed to financially enable undergrads, from anywhere in the world, to pursue life sciences research in the U.S. Apps launch JUNE 2023. 👇

advice from grad school that I still use as an asst. prof. is to schedule my tasks based on my energy & self-awareness, not some idealized schedule e.g. noticing what types of tasks I do best at what points in the day (energy) & what works best for my needs & goals (self-aware)

I am still a little in shock :)... I feel very grateful that the @NSF is investing in my research ideas, industry impact goals, and educational potential through this 5-year CAREER award 🎉🙏🏽😁 https://t.co/3oZKYSCuzO

We continue celebrating 2023 #WomensHistoryMonth! Today we highlight another talented #WomenInSTEM #WomenInMedicine from the @KarunaGaneshLab - Ellie Benitez (@elliebenitez11)

Thank you so much to the HHMI Gilliam Organizers for an amazing meeting, creating the space for us to really grow in community with each other. And thank you to all of the Gilliam Fellows for just being awesome! ✨🍾

My heart is so full. I am leaving my first #HHMI Gilliam Meeting feeling energized, empowered, and inspired to change the world. I am grateful for the opportunity to expand my impact and continue uplifting my community. Counting down the days until we meet again in September! 💚

My growth and success are a direct reflection of my vibrant community 💌 and I am incredibly grateful to be a part of a program that makes me feel valued and supported. Thank you for the feature @MSKEducation!

Just a reminder that we are still accepting applications for the #BlackinCancer Post doc award: https://t.co/hWQnpGr0kZ 📌Deadline: 15 July 2023

So excited to share that my thesis work is out now at @MolecularCell! Karen @AdelmanLab and I show that U1 snRNP increases RNA Pol II elongation rate within AT-rich introns, thereby reducing the likelihood of Pol II termination or arrest. Highlights below!
