Chair and Professor of Genetics and Genome Sciences at UConn Health. We study RNA biology and CRISPR systems using biochemistry, genomics, and bioinformatics.
Scientists across multiple disciplines are sounding the alarm after the White House proposed taking greater control over how scientific research gets funded and allowing political appointees to decide whether to approve scientific grants. cnn.it/3QosYga
Newest preprint from the lab in collaboration with Gordon Carmichael. Great work from everyone in our labs led by postdoc Xuan Ye. “SnoRNA Expression and RNA 2’-O-Methylation in Drosophila melanogaster S2 Cells”

Very excited to share our new paper out now in @MolecularCell. We show how U1 snRNP -a well-known splicing factor- regulates the activity of alternative promoters in human cells cell.com/molecular-cell/full…
Just heard from a colleague that his PhD students’ NIH fellowship proposals will be affected too. NIH grants not only support biomed and biotech research, but also the training of American PHD and MD students. Trump just helped achieve what no US enemy could dream to achieve.
“Panels that were scheduled to review grant proposals also received eleventh-hour word that they wouldn’t be meeting.” This is how you make America competitive again? By halting your country’s biomedical research and technology development?
Say goodbye to 2024 AND variability in qPCR data with the uMRT RT-qPCR Kit! With consistent Ct values across RT primer types, RNA complexities, and amplicon locations, uMRT empowers reliable RNA quantification.
