So honored and excited to be included among this incredible network of scientists taking on tough and risky problems in basic science! Thanks @Hypothesisfund and @BhayaDevaki for the support! Let’s go, choanoflagellates - the @FUNRScience team is ready!

Congratulations to student-mentor pairs Adonis Rubio @adonisrubio99 and Institute Scholar Christopher Barnes @cobarnes27 & CBI trainee Maria Nguyen @MariaHTNguyen and Faculty Fellow Florentine Rutaganira @Frutag33 for being named Gilliam Fellows! @HHMINEWS news.stanford.edu/stories/2024/1…

you can always count on los puertorriqueños to bring the energy!! 🤩#ABRCMS2024

Thrilled to see our latest work on ctenophore reverse development featured on the cover of @PNASNews 🤩 Work supported by @MSarsCentre, @UiB, @ERC_Research #ctenophores #evolution #rejuvenation👏👏👏@JoanJSoto & stunning📸from @Alexandre4_Jan

thank you, Uncle Dikembe 🕊️

It's almost my favorite time of year again. Teaching students how to read phylogenies using Pokemon.

Our new Neuro Department is searching for an Assistant professor in Systems, Computational, and Cognitive Neuroscience. Apply now and come be my colleague!! @UCBerkeleyNeuro 🧠aprecruit.berkeley.edu/JPF04581

Thrilled to share that I'll be starting a tenure-track assistant professor position at the Department of Genetics, Washington University in St. Louis, in January 2025! @WashUGenetics
I am recruiting lab members at all levels. For more details, visit our lab website or check flyer

📢For all HaloTag lovers💙💚❤💜🤍 we developed a new cell-permeable Biotin-HaloTag ligand enabling rapid protein labeling in living cells and efficient streptavidin pull-down. We hope you enjoy the reading and find some inspiration🙌 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I'm excited to announce that I've accepted a TT faculty position @VanderbiltCDB and @VUMC_Cancer! Thrilled to join @VanderbiltU!

The Mudumbi Lab opens January 2025. We will use single-molecule microscopy to study the kinetics of RTK signaling, with a focus on biased signaling!

In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, we present The Atlas of Inspiring Hispanic/Latinx Scientists. This resource showcases the scientific excellence of nearly 400 outstanding scientists. #LatinxAtlas #HispanicHeritageMonth

1/n This still feels so wild and surreal, but I can finally share that I am a #NIHMOSAIC K99/R00 Scholar funded by NIGMS 🤩

I have so many people to thank, but I'll start with @WallaceUcsf for being the most amazing and supportive postdoc advisor I could ever ask for.

3rd chapter of my dissertation finally published in @NatureComms! We reconstructed the first complete Asgard archaeal genomes from short reads, validated with long reads. Genome structures & metabolic insights reveal key roles in carbon/hydrogen cycling in wetlands.

This nasty pathogen infects the nuclei of mussels, multiplies to >80000 cells, swelling nuclei to >50 times their size. Where does its nutrition come from? How does it avoid apoptosis? Read our paper, just out!
