So excited for you and the next step!!
The Sherlock lab will open in 2025 at UC Santa Cruz in the Molecular, Cell & Developmental Biology Department! We will study viral RNA structures that regulate translation. I couldn’t be more excited for this next stage in my career. Go Banana Slugs!

NYSBC presented grid cryocycling methods for reliably blotting, vitrifying, and reusing clipped cryoEM grids at the 4th Annual NY Area CryoEM meeting at the Vagelos Education center at @ColumbiaMed. You can read our paper about this method here: https://t.co/qL0Cu5h82I

Happy to share @radhikaRMalik from @IcahnMountSinai paper in @NatureSMB. Using #cryoEM of the Rev1-PolZ holocomplex, they reveal the basis of its cooperativity in TLS. They discover the N-helix-BRCT module as a keystone of this coordination. Data was collected at NYSBC.

I'll piggy back on this post to congratulate Professor Hashim Al-Hashimi, who was recently awarded the Guenther Laukien Prize. Hashim is a heavy user of NYSBC's NMR facilities and a great colleague. Congrats, Hashim! @ColumbiaMed @NYSBC_Science
We have received word from @bruker that the 800US#2 AVANCE NEO console upgrade will be delivered 6 weeks early, now scheduled for 08/09/24. This is @NIH funded, 1S10OD034275-01.

A great thing about being the Director of NYSBC is that I get to see fantastic stories like this come from our staff working with users!
1 dataset – 10 structures! Check out the latest preprint by Sonia Bhattacharya from M.G. Finn’s group from @GeorgiaTech. Structural work was done by Matt Jenkins in collaboration with Carolina Hernandez and @MishaKopylov3 from NYSBC https://t.co/Q3xCcjkuaR

Contrary to rumors, my RNA-focused research career did not end when I became the @NYSBC_Science Executive Director. Several members have relocated to NYC and exciting things are afoot here and back at @CUAnschutz. Look for some new papers to drop soon!
