I am deeply grateful to @ASCBiology and truly humbled by this recognition of my research through the Postdoctoral Porter Prize for Research Excellence. Congratulations to all the awardees!

Lab reunion at Cell Bio 2023 with ⁦⁦@TakashiAkeraLab⁩ , ⁦@lab_zhang⁩ and ⁦@das_arunika⁩ labs; ⁦@asdScott0331⁩ ⁦⁦⁦@Piero_is_cool⁩ #cellbio2023

The Akera lab will be at the ASCB #cellbio2023 meeting! Four of us will be there! Warif will be presenting at the “Cell Division” minisymposium on Dec 5 and also have a poster (P1917) on Dec 4 about hybrid incompatibility in female meiosis.

Lampson lab as always in full force at the #cellbio2023! Come listen how rapid evolution shapes chromosome segregation on Tuesday Dec 5th "Cell Division" minisymposium. Or come talk to me at my poster Dec 4th P1918 (B192).🧬🐭

Spatial regulation of protein degradation helps exit mitosis with just the right speed you need to not mess it up! @LucaCirillo17, @PinesLab , @calfieri84, @sapsswaran, @LisaRoberti88

Check out our automated tool for detecting protein innovations FREEDA ( https://t.co/paezZnM0kh) now freely available from a web-based server Tamarind Bio ( https://t.co/i47V9cW6Rx). Stick around and discover more tools, especially if interested in protein structure predictions!

So proud of my colleague @das_arunika who just published another fantastic paper about centromeres in female germline! She is just getting started - follow her work as she is heading to lead her own lab at @Cornell

Check out FREEDA - our fully automated tool for detecting protein innovation in humans, mice, carnivores, birds and flies, which we tailored to cell biologists. We show how we used it to find experimental evidence of functional innovation in a mouse centromeric protein CENP-O.

It's an exciting time for synthetic biology, as we report our latest progress in building human artificial chromosomes! In this manuscript, @crgmyster debuts megabase-scale human artificial chromosomes that propagate as single copies in diverse cell types! https://t.co/qs6xLKk14q

Congrats @duilio_sil on his review paper on non-centromeric meiotic drivers in mammalian eggs!🎉 Thanks a lot @HarmitMalik and Judith Mank for editing this series! free link until 8/22/2023☟ https://t.co/3YAyVLoE71

Absolutely fascinating layman’s digest of scientific evidence around how birds likely evolved from dinosaurs and what the feathers were used for originally.

Incredibly honored and excited to be a part of the Leading Edge community! 🎉 So much to learn from this amazing group of scientists 🔬

We are looking for a PhD student! Please contact Monica Gotta if you are interested

Did you know that kinetochore proteins evolve rapidly, suggesting functional innovation?🤩 Check out our new computational tool FREEDA that detects protein innovation fully automatically - run it yourself and see if your favorite protein innovates too! https://t.co/oH95xWr9S7

Check out our mini-review on female reproductive aging, spearheaded by @ADestouni! We propose models of ovarian aging with insights from recent genomics studies, and the future of the field. Out now in Human Reproduction! @ESHRE

Wrapping up #cellbio2022 with ⁦@das_arunika⁩ ⁦@asdScott0331⁩ ⁦@TakashiAkera⁩ Nootan Pandey

#cellbio2022 come check out Lampson lab talks and posters! Minisymp cell division: @asdScott0331 , Sunday; Subgroup evo cell biology: @damian_dudka, Monday; Microsymp nuclear power: @das_arunika Tuesday. Check out posters from our lab and alum @TakashiAkera and @lab_zhang labs.

So excited to see this from a dear collegue @DivitoAbigail - Epigenetic mechanisms of diapause in fruit flies - I learned so much and you will too!

Check out the latest from the world of kinetochore microtubules! @LabMeraldi @CedCastrog

Great opportunities available in Lampson lab for studying germline centromere inheritance and artificial chromosomes! Experience in reproductive biology, especially male germline is beneficial but not essential. https://t.co/XVXKC3Fjnt please RT!
