Amazing paper by Carlton and Issacs - Seems that ANXA11 has a number of tricks up its sleeve!

Nature research paper: LASER couples damage sensing to ESCRT assembly for lysosome repair go.nature.com/4o8E9Gp

So excited to share our new paper out today in @nature.com - 'LASER couples damage sensing to ESCRT assembly for lysosome repair'. This was an amazing collaborative effort with Claire Goul during our time in @robzonculab.bsky.social : www.nature.com/articles/s41...

📣 new preprint multimodal atlas. Imaging + scRNA, 57M cells. 🧬🔬 Cells are complex dynamical systems — but most ways we measure them destroy them. We asked: how does live imaging compare to scRNA-seq, the field’s gold std? The answer surprised us 🧵 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Several people have asked for possible content and structure for comments regarding the proposed OMB regulations. With some suggestions from others, I have posted on example (as a Word document) for downloading). jeremymberg.github.io/jeremyberg.g... I hope this is helpful.

Giving a talk? Don't waste time with "practice talks". Stay in slide sorter view & practice 3 things for each slide: 1. What point/s do I want to convey with this slide (</=3). 2. What's the 1-line summary of this slide? 3. What is the transition to the next slide? Something doesn't fit? FIX IT

Triple the science budget AND fix agency governance. TLDR: Those are the two essential things we must fix in US science. Get the president out of the science agencies, no presidential influence beyond appointment, stop the attacks on the civil service, restore Congressional power and oversight.

Congratulations to Pietro Fratta on being elected as a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences 😊- acmedsci.ac.uk/more/news/ac...

On July 1st, I'll be joining the faculty at UC Berkeley, with a joint appointment in the Division of Molecular Therapeutics within MCB and the Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute.

📣 Exciting news: my lab is moving to the Krembil Institute at the University of Toronto’s University Health Network in Fall 2026. We’ll be recruiting for all roles, so reach out if you’re interesting in joining us to study spinal circuits for sensorimotor control www.levine-lab.org

Excited to share a pre-print from a collaboration between my lab at NIH, Len Petrucelli's lab at University of Miami, and Shyamal Mosalaganti's lab at University of Michigan.

Check out the newest work from our, from Fabricio Nicola @fabricionicola.bsky.social on mouse jumping and spinal cell types. Excellent collab with @vulcnethologist.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

The most impt change at #NIH and to US science this year is bigger than grant cancellations— it’s how the agency is governed. For 75 years NIH has been largely independent of presidential control. That’s changed this year. New piece from me and @nataliebaviles.bsky.social in @nature.com 🧪

A new #ScienceSignaling study offers insights into the KOLF2.IJ cell line, which is derived from induced pluripotent stem cells and has been proposed as a neuronal model for Alzheimer’s disease and related #dementia research. https://scim.ag/4aFNY9O

Sooo happy to share our new paper in @nature.com “CLCC1 promotes hepatic neutral lipid flux and nuclear pore complex assembly.” A terrific collaboration with @arrudalab.bsky.social, led by co–first authors Alyssa Mathiowetz and Emily Maymand. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Losing sleep over #iPSC transgene silencing after differentiation? Same here. Bright in iPSCs. Gone after differentiation. Our paper in @cp-cellstemcell.bsky.social maps what actually keeps expression on👇 www.cell.com/cell-stem-ce... 🔗 Free access (50 days): www.sciencedirect.com/science/auth...

Thrilled to see our paper out in @cp-cellstemcell.bsky.social!

📣Excited to announce a new pre-print from the lab 📣 Led by my student @storiesofisobel.bsky.social in collab with Hemali Phatnani @nygenome.org We discovered a novel class of TDP-43 dependent cryptic gene-TE spliced transcripts: crypTEs #TEsky #RNAsky #ALS doi.org/10.64898/2026.01.09.698641

Latest preprint from our lab reports that the distinct pH of anterograde (less acidic) and retrograde (more acidic) lysosomal vesicles in the axon depends on assembly of the V1 and V0 domains of the vacuolar H+ ATPase, mediated by the metazoan RAVE complex www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Begging PhD programs to agree on a common app with only letters of rec that writers upload once. These inane likert scales when students are applying to 15-20 programs is destroying my soul

👉 New publication ahead of print from our lab: tinyurl.com/ye7pntte We show that the protein SPG21, mutated in hereditary spastic paraplegia 21, localizes to endolysosomes via RAB7A, where it promotes mTORC1-dependent TFEB phosphorylation, reducing expression of a subset of TFEB regulated genes

Hasegawa-Ogawa, Okano et al. identify a dominant-negative TDP-43 isoform regulated by #ALS-linked #RNA-binding proteins. hnRNP K promotes its expression, while hnRNP A1 and FUS suppress it. rupress.org/jcb/article/... #Disease #Neuroscience #ProteinHomeostasis #RNAbiology

Thanks for hosting me - so much fun to meet with everybody at Berkeley!

Despite some ups and downs at NIH, we do have an open position for a postbac and are considering candidates. Our work is at the intersection of neuroscience and AI, and we aim to understand how the brain's densely connected recurrent networks operate. 🧪

Why do lower-resolution images sometimes yield better results in deep learning for bioimaging analyses? 🤔📉 Mariana Ferreira's new preprint on #ReScale4DL explores this paradox and introduces optimal resolution design! @gomez-mariscal.bsky.social brainchild🧑‍🔬✨ Check: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/the-w... Not nearly enough coverage of this possibility by traditional media.

Important!! 🚨 “Using the rescission process, which requires only a simple majority in the Senate, the Republican majorities can vote to return the unspent funds. That will lop billions off the NIH budget.” 1/2

New at Can We Still Govern: An anonymous NIH employee maps out the GOP budget gameplan to permanently gut our most important science agency. Impoundment, delay and red tape will create artificial "savings" that become the new benchmark for NIH budgets. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-nih-bu...

Amazing team science effort, led by Marius Wernig’s group, to develop a silencing-resistant transgene cassette that maintains expression following iPSC differentiation. This was major barrier for iPSC-based experiments. Thanks to CZI for funding the research! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Losing sleep over #iPSC transgene silencing after differentiation? Same here — too many times😭 So we built a PiggyBac construct that resists silencing. Expression stays ON, even after differentiation. Our #preprint is out👇 🔗 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Supported by @cziscience.bsky.social

Our lab at the NIH (Bethesda, MD) is looking for postdoctoral fellows to join our team studying the molecular mechanisms of protein trafficking and their links to neurodevelopmental disorders starting on or after 10-1-2025. Send your application to [email protected]. Please share and repost!

I’ve always liked Tom Pollard’s framing of biological research: genetics gives you the parts list, biochemistry the functions/reactions and rates, cell biology the localisations and dynamics, and structural biology the fine detail. Put it all together and you get a mechanistic picture. 🤩
