Discover how @pcrparrish from @fredhutch used a pooled CRISPR-Cas9 single & double knockout approach targeting over 2k human paralogs to find out that 12% of human paralogs exhibit synthetic lethality in at least one context. https://t.co/3tcXNLQznB

There is so much joy in visiting home after so long. But there is also so much grief, which has lain patiently in wait for more than two years to land a sucker punch when I least expect it. I walk familiar streets as a stranger who has lost friends and his bearings.

Thank you to Dr Ya-Yun Cheng and Dr Sierra White for all you do! We are so lucky to have these two fantastic post docs in our lab @UPMCHillmanCC. #NPAW2022
As #PostdocAppreciationWeek comes to a close, the DOM would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our postdocs, as we could not make the groundbreaking scientific advances we do without your commitment and intellectual creativity. Thank you! 🔬❤️ #NPAW2022

As much as I am excited to begin my grad school journey this Fall, I am sad to leave the beautiful city of Seattle and will always cherish the memories I made here. But for now, it’s time for a new adventure! (4/4)

This wouldn’t have been possible without the support of my amazing mentor @aliceb_phd and all the members of the Berger lab. Finally, I cannot thank my family and friends enough for constantly supporting me and always encouraging me to pursue my dreams!

This process has been so long that it still hasn’t completely sunk in that I made this major decision. But I’m thrilled to share that I’m starting my Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Biomedical Graduate Program at the University of Pittsburgh this Fall. @somgradpitt (2/4)

As I started my applications for grad school in Fall 2020, I was extremely nervous and anxious about making this decision. The application deadlines followed by the interview process and then waiting for the final decisions kept my anxiety levels 📈. (1/4)

This is amazing! Congratulations @aliceb_phd for all of the good news!!

Grad school app season is (mostly) over, and since academic twitter is going nuts about the idea of paying research assistants $15/hr... Let's talk about how expensive it is to be a student applying to graduate school--especially for underrepresented students. (1/14)

Couldn’t agree more!
