#cellbio2025 The Women in Cell Biology (WICB) Committee has put together some truly fantastic events for this year’s meeting! We can’t wait for you to check them out:

🎉 #ASCB2025 Preview! 🎉 Scripts of Success: Award-Winning Scientists Take the Stage — a joyful, honest, and hilarious celebration of scientific journeys. This year we honor two phenomenal women in cell biology: Sarah Cohen and Kristen Verhey. 🌟 📅 Mon, Dec 8 🕚 11 AM CC 108A

Science starts with curiosity. 💡🐟 Investigator @kkostova.bsky.social visited Epic Elementary to lead students through hands-on #zebrafish lessons as part of the #BioEYES program!

From a village in Bulgaria to UCSF & MIT now the Institute. Investigator @kkostova.bsky.social has just been honored with UCSF’s 2025 Alumni Early-Career Award for her remarkable contributions to basic #science. Learn more about her lab's ribosome research: bit.ly/46ANRuh

Kostova Lab postdocs Leo and Z are attending the Faculty EDGE workshop this week—learning tips, tricks, and strategies for navigating the academic job market. Excited to see them grow as future leaders in science! @stowersinstitute.bsky.social Learn more: bit.ly/4efKcDX

Congratulations to Amisha Devan on her poster prize from @asbmb.bsky.social! Amisha rocked the poster session with her work on ribosome quality control. @stowersinstitute.bsky.social

We’re excited to share that Investigator Kamena Kostova has been named a 2025 @hhmi.org Freeman Hrabowski Scholar! This award supports bold scientific #research and a commitment to fostering a scientific environment where all can thrive. Learn more: bit.ly/4ltQgLG

🌟 Know an outstanding scientist and mentor in cell biology? Nominate them (or yourself!) for a WICB award! 🏆 Let’s celebrate those making a difference in science and community. Applications now open! 🔗 #WomenInSTEM #WICBAwards www.ascb.org/award/women-... www.ascb.org/award/sandra...

Finding faulty ribosomes: A new collaboration from the @kkostova.bsky.social Lab uncovers how cells cope with defective #ribosomes published in @cp-molcell.bsky.social. This could shed light on how failure to clear such ribosomes can lead to disease. Read more: bit.ly/3SlXxQZ

🚨New paper alert!🚨 Our latest work uncovers how cells detect and destroy defective ribosomes before they cause harm. A key quality control pathway with implications for development and disease. #ribosome #qualitycontrol Check it out in Molecular Cell: authors.elsevier.com/a/1l2MA3vVUP...

Meet Investigator and @stowersgrad.bsky.social faculty member, @kkostova.bsky.social!
