Excited to share this paper. We found a potentially new role for Vorinostat in regulating Palmitoylation & found Vorinostat restored SQSTM1/p62 palmitoylation in the brains of an Huntington Disease mouse model. This project was driven by 2 MSc's @jesuisyasmeena.bsky.social & Fatima Abrar!

We were asked Autophagy Reports to summarize our work on S-acylation of SQSTM1/p62 in autophagy & Huntington Disease. @jesuisyasmeena.bsky.social www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Thank you to everyone who donated and/or came to the Walk to End ALS today! I think it was a very successful event. Special thanks to my lab members who helped make shirts, volunteered at the walk, & walked the walk! You're amazing! @uwaterloo.ca @waterloosci.bsky.social @alscanada.bsky.social

I successfully defended my Master’s thesis at the University of Waterloo! This journey has been incredibly rewarding. A huge thank you to my supervisor @drddom.bsky.social for his mentorship. It’s been a privilege being part of the NeurdyPhagy team! I’m now seeking new opportunities—let’s connect!

The NeurdyPhagy Lab is in Montreal talking all about palmitoylation in ALS MND. Stop by our posters & say hi. @jesuisyasmeena.bsky.social @cailyncreative.bsky.social

Now that @jesuisyasmeena.bsky.social is on Bluesky, I should reshare this fantastic review she wrote, published in the Journal of Huntington's Disease. It's open access. Enjoy!
