“My message to the young people is this: if I can get so close to the stars, you can too.” —Zhijian “James” Chen, 2024 #LaskerAward winner for his discovery of cGAS, an enzyme that senses self and foreign DNA #Lasker2024 #LaskerLaureate UT Southwestern Medical Center



-If one focuses only on what's known in one's field, then the next experiments are likely underway. What is novel is if one imports an idea from another field that others had not thought about.

Thrilled to see our ExIGS tool featured! A true testament to the power of collaboration. Huge congrats to the team for their hard work! 🧬Ajay Labade zack chiang Caroline Comenho nature.com/articles/d4158…

A rational and thoughtful opinion about biology x AI. "develop generally applicable methods to speed up biology experiments,...to train more capable AIs that can understand and design new types of biological systems." A book would be fantastic Niko McCarty. asimov.press/p/levers


Join us for the 1st Session of Postdoc Night Science Boston to practice the creative scientific process. Register now – limited spots! Itai Yanai 🗓 Date: Nov 21, 2024 ⏰ Time: 3:30-5:00pm 📍 Location: MIT E15-341 tinyurl.com/4ndpdbsp


We are looking for talented postdocs to join our team at Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford Medicine Stanford Neurosurgery! Join us to develop single cell sequencing- and imaging-based genomic tools to understand the cell communication across space and time! Please share with anyone interested!!


In collaboration with Reuben Saunders, Jonathan Weissman's Lab, and Xiaowei Zhuang, we are very excited to release Perturb-Multi: a platform for pooled multimodal genetic screens in intact mammalian tissue. Check it out! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


Gene regulation involves thousands of proteins that bind DNA, yet comprehensively mapping these is challenging. Our paper in Nature Genetics describes ChIP-DIP, a method for genome-wide mapping of hundreds of DNA-protein interactions in a single experiment. nature.com/articles/s4158…



Now out in Science Magazine we present 'Genome-shuffle-seq': a method to shuffle mammalian genomes and characterize the impact of structural variants (SVs) with single-cell resolution in one experiment. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…




We are looking for talented postdocs/visiting students to join our team MIT Dept of BE and Koch Institute at MIT to innovate spatial multi-omics technologies, map clinical samples, and integrate AI/ML models to advance next-generation cancer immunotherapy. Please help to spread!!
