We wish #LaskerAward winner Victor R. Ambros a happy birthday! By studying the microscopic worm #Celegans, he discovered that small RNAs are key regulators of gene expression. @UMassChan #modelorganism ow.ly/Ak7150CsW9p

Ok, so my amazing group (I presume!) foil-wrapped my entire office, and everything in it, to celebrate my just-announced promotion to professor.

I’m joining you on that island. As a reviewer, I’ve always found it as helpful as getting clubbed over the head.

Take it from me: Tomás rocks
MD/PhD student Tomás Rodríguez restarted @UMassChan’s Latino Medical Student Association chapter in 2020. He established the optional Medical Spanish elective in collaboration with students from all three schools. #HispanicHeritageMonth @trodriguezUMMS @UMassMDPhD @UMassChanSOM

As @grunewaju notes in his summary, @ESontheimerLab also published similar findings about split prime editors in @NatureBiotech earlier this year: nature.com/articles/s41587-0…. 7/7

4/n We looked to Cas9 orthologs from other organisms as starting points. Nme2Cas9 from N meningitidis stood out. As characterized by @ESontheimerLab & others, this ortholog has natural activity on N4CC PAMs and (bonus for delivery!) is more compact than SpCas9 (1082aa vs 1368aa).

The latest issue of CP is out!
The cover highlights an Overview by @OliviaJCrocker
@NATrigg & @ColinConine (@ChildrensPhila and @Penn), who discuss how to design small #RNA cloning workflows in eukaryotes to capture specific small RNAs of interest.

Thank you @aemonten and @Curr_Protocols for a smooth review and making the manuscript significantly better in the process. Also, @ESontheimerLab for inviting us to write it in the first place.
