The damage to science is irreparable. Scientists who are valuable are leaving now. This offered some hope, but now it’s clear reason has completely gone out the window. A sad day for science.

For local people impacted by the storm: please call 211 for resources. They did not have any information a couple days ago, but they have now partnered with companies like Airbnb to offer temporary housing and other relief.

My dear friends and neighbors have been displaced from their home in Chapel Hill due to flooding from Sunday night’s storm. The number of families displaced by the floods are being hugely underreported and many people in our community need our help. Please help if you can.

A *huge* problem. It also includes search committee positions, review requests, letters of recommendation, P&T reviews (so, so many of these post tenure)—it goes on and on. And the social penalties for women saying no are so dramatically higher than when men say no.

We were sent this list of resources from Triangle Free Bicycle Repair - mutual aid and community resources for Durham, Carrboro, Chapel Hill. Please share. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

The @berlowlab.bsky.social kicking off the next session at #PS39 If you missed his talk, Jake Simmons and Jamie Do of the Berlow lab will both be presenting posters at the afternoon session!

It’s been a very busy month but it is never too late to celebrate Jake Simmons and his advancement to candidacy in the @unc-bcbp.bsky.social PhD program. Congratulations Jake! We are all very proud of you and can’t wait to see where your creativity and drive leads you on your scientific journey.

Anyone have a lead on replacement syringes for Malvern VP-ITC instruments? They no longer sell them, and they want me to upgrade to the PEAQ system. Unfortunately, we have a PEAQ-ITC, and it doesn't work with the concentrations needed for nanoparticle experiments. #chemsky #biophysics #ITC

Yesterday we celebrated Jamie Do, who passed her oral qualifying exam with flying colors to officially become our lab’s 2nd PhD candidate! 🎉 We are so proud of Jamie and all of her accomplishments! @unc-bcbp.bsky.social

It’s a wrap at #ASBMB2025. Great science, amazing community!

Today’s the day for Emily’s poster presentation! Looking forward to seeing everyone at the #ASBMB25 poster session this afternoon!

2. Graduate student extraordinaire Emily Sipko will be presenting her poster “Atomic-level insights into the roles of the IDPs c-Myc and CITED2 in regulating gene expression” on Monday at 4:30pm at Board #109. Please come check it out!

Having a great time at #ASBMB25 in Chicago so far! Always grateful for opportunities to connect with this amazing community and learn about some exciting new science! If you want to learn more about what we have been up to in the lab recently, you will have two(!) chances to do so.

NIH PostBac program is open again! And I will be hiring! #JobPostComing www.training.nih.gov/research-tra...

Our lab is excited to hire a postdoctoral researcher to study the mechanisms that viruses use to ‘hijack’ TAM receptors in viral spread. We are looking for someone who is excited to learn new techniques and work in a highly collaborative team! Please share! unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/298...
