Spotted in a conference room in LSA/Weill Hall! 👀 This one’s clearly well stocked with #Issue39 and #Issue40. Feel free to take them home or read and leave for the next person to enjoy 😊 #spottedoncampus

It's finally here! My second grad school paper features a new Bayesian inference framework for inferring aspects of the transcription cycle from live imaging data consisting of fluorescently labeled nascent RNA. journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a… Next up - writing my thesis

IT'S HERE!!! The Berkeley Science Review is proud to launch our 🌟brand🌟new🌟website today!!! We're so excited to elevate our #website and showcase the talents of our writers, editors, and designers. Show them some love and check it out 🥳👏🤩 berkeleysciencereview.com

Our BA Co-director and Logistics lead Angélica M. González-Sánchez will be a panelist in the "Customer Spotlight Series: How Higher Education Is Going Virtual" panel, organized by Hopin. It's free! Happening on 6/9/21 at 9am PST. Register here: hopin.com/events/custome…

My first paper is finally published! In it we explore how homologous chromosomes pair up by looking at cells in live fly embryos and comparing their dynamics to simulated polymers. Fantastic collaboration with Jack Bateman Hernan Garcia Daniel Jost doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

This piece by Neem J. Patel was so much fun to design for - just look at all those colors and textures in the fungi & bacterial colonies 😍

I'm excited that my first, first-author paper is out on bioRxiv! Here, we combined quantitative live-imaging and thermodynamic modeling to study transcriptional repression in fly embryos. Cheers to all co-authors and my advisor Hernan Garcia !

Our paper is out in Nature Plants! Congrats Simon! nature.com/articles/s4147…

Happy to share that I'm starting a new lab @Calico! We're repurposing developmental programs to address age-related disease & developing computational methods to enable those approaches We're hiring now for multiple experimental/computational roles (see below) Come join us!

The first preprint from my thesis work in the Patel Lab Patel Lab is out! We generated new functional genomic resources for our favorite emerging model crustacean, Parhyale hawaiensis, using a timecourse of Omni-ATAC-Seq and RNA-Seq. Thread below👇 1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Lauren DeLaunay Miller, graduate student Berkeley Journalism writes about recent #research from UC Berkeley's Kendall Calhoun highlighting the dangerous implications of assuming that all #wildfires happen in forests. Designs by Meghan Turner berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2022/0…

Love when a BSR author's topic gives me the perfect excuse to design a GIF!

Join my fellow Beyond Academia co-organizers and I on Feb 24 & 25 for the 2022 Beyond Academia Conference to explore the wide range of engaging career paths you can pursue with a PhD! Featuring 100+ PhDs who successfully transitioned to non-tenure track roles! Register now👇👇👇

An amazing opportunity for a PhD student to intern on an exciting microscopy project (just look at those dynamics😍) I had a fantastic time last summer working with Andrew York, Kayley, and the rest of the Microscopy group, and I highly recommend Calico's internship program!

Join me this Friday 1:15-2:30p PST for a conversation with 4 STEM PhDs who hold research-focused roles in biotech, quantum computing, and hardware engineering! To attend, register for the 2022 Beyond Academia Conference - it's open to PhD students and postdocs at any institution!

The data firehose is ON & preprint #2 of 2 on crustacean Hox regulation from the Patel Lab Patel Lab is OUT! We show that Polycomb Group genes regulate the Parhyale Hox genes & that each Hox gene may have its own distinct regulatory mechanisms. 🧵1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New preprint by Jiaxi (Jake) Zhao, Mindy Liu Perkins and Matthew Norstad! Using live imaging and dynamical systems theory to dissect the establishment of developmental memory through a bistable switch. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New preprint by Jiaxi (Jake) Zhao, Nick Lammers, YangJoon Kim and Simon Alamos! Combining optogenetics, live imaging and theoretical modeling to biochemically dissect repressor action in living animals. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
