Amazing work from my colleague here.
A team led by @USCStemCell scientist Justin Ichida has identified 2 promising avenues for developing new treatments for diverse forms of ALS. Their findings are published in @CellStemCell and @CellCellPress. @KeckSchool_USC @NYSCF stemcell.keck.usc.edu/broadl…

Grateful for the opportunity to share this study in person @HMS_SysBio next Tuesday at 11am ET. I will cover four different bifurcations that can create and destroy biological oscillations. I thank Jeremy Gunawardena for hosting and the support from Galit Lahav and @SeanMegason
New paper is out now: Hopf bifurcation keeps cancer away! Diverse alterations in the p53 pathway promote cancer by abolishing the oscillatory competence of p53, a property that is essential for tumor suppression. Great fun working with @alan_garfinkel 👉🏻doi.org/10.1016/j.pbiomolbio…

Ever thought about how embryos grow AND pattern themselves at the same time?? Seems hard as you are trying to paint on a canvas that is continuously changing. In our latest work we show that if patterning and growth are coupled it is actually easier🧵1/12 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

👩‍🔬🎉🧪I am so excited for the science that is to come thanks to the support of the @NIHDirector's New Innovator DP2 award. Thank you to reviewers and to the NIH for believing in our work. I'll never forget the moment I saw my impact score (equal parts shocked and overjoyed). 🥳🥳
Early-stage investigators proposed innovative high-impact research ideas for the @NIHDirector’s New Innovator Award. See the projects the awardees will pursue: bit.ly/hrhr2022nia #NIHHighRisk
