Hi everybody! I am super excited to share the work done during my PhD published in @nature today! We describe a new mechanism of self- vs. non-self RNA discrimination by showing how N-glycans shield glycoRNAs from stimulating endosomal RNA sensors nature.com/articles/s41586-0ā¦

Excited to share our new study in @Nature! We uncover how the vascular glycocalyxāa carbohydrate-rich coating on blood vesselsāplays a crucial role in brain health and aging. A @wysscoray & @CarolynBertozzi labs collaboration. šš§ #glycotime (1/12)

The secret sauce for starting a new lab is to set up the right kind of culture; one that best enables innovative science with its āenthusiasm, lucid criticism, nonconformism, and friendshipā (Francois Jacob)

There are ~40k postdocs in the US, according to the NIH. While PhD students generally have good support (their committees, external advisors, and classmates), the postdocs do not. To help with this, we're starting the 'Postdoc Night Science' club with a first branch in NYC. ā¬ļø

A fascinating & refreshing read on the topic of what kinds of recombinant viruses are safe & worth making / authorizing. A razor sharp mind cuts through an unnecessarily cloudy debate. Jonathan Yewdell writes so lucidly. #Biosecurity #Virology pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.24ā¦

Excited to share this preprint! In 2016, CalĆ³ et al reported a gL-free envelope gH complex in CMV. We found a 3rd part of the complexā the part that likely binds receptors, show a role in entry & thanks to our collaborators, solved a cryo-EM structure š§µ biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/ā¦

For my part, I especially want to acknowledge Lauren A. Henderson, a PhD candidate in my lab @LSUHS. She is a co-first author of the work and SERIOUSLY drove the project forward, identifying a biological role. Hugely creative. Iām learning from her!
