Peter K Todd MD/PhD Lab @Umich. We study how short tandem repeats impact neuronal function and human disease. Ataxia, ALS/FTD, Fragile X/FXTAS, CANVAS.
Ann Arbor, MI
Joined April 2018
It took a near-collapse of our research infrastructure and a constitutional crisis to make it happen, but we are moving our former Twitter activities to Bluesky. Looking forward to a happier scientific discussion in this new space:.

You deserve better. We all do.
Harvard notified me today that this K99 grant is terminated.

If implemented, this will destroy academic biomedical research in the US as we know it today. It amounts to a 30% cut on every NIH research grant at the University level. End result: less research and less discovery with negative effects across biotech and medical education.
Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above

Exciting work!.
Finally out!.Here we show that SARS-CoV-2 N protein binds to cellular stress granule proteins G3BP1/2, not only to block SGs, but also to facilitate the efficient translation of viral mRNAs. Fantastic work by doctoral student Siwen Long! .
