Interested in single-cell fate tracing in a variety of cancer and stem cell contexts? We have postdoc positions funded by Pew, CZI, and others. Reach out if interested!

Joe Wakim and Andy Spakowitz published “Physical modeling of nucleosome clustering in euchromatin resulting from interactions between epigenetic reader proteins” in PNAS. Great work, Joe, elucidating the organization of chromosomal DNA in living cells. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Congrats Ziyang, Madeline, and Yogesh Goyal on this work!!

We are looking forward to hiring a postdoc. Detailed below!!

Thrilled to share our latest Genome Biology led by Ian Mellis identifying widespread presence of transcriptional adaptation *really cool biology* in mammals w/ data mining & stochastic modeling thx Department of Cell & Developmental Biology Northwestern CSB Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Network NSF-Simons NITMB Lurie Cancer Center genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

The application for PhD IITB-Monash Research Academy is open. Along with Prof. Ravi Jagadeeshan from Monash, I have floated a project on modeling of active polymers (IMURA1198). The student will be at Monash for 1 yr. If interested Pls apply @ shorturl.at/J2so4 by 25/8. RTs appreciated.

Excited to share this latest work on a crucial aspect of endosome tethering and fusion. The work shows how small scale changes can sometimes drive large scale coordinated transformations. Have a look at this work @ pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

I'm excited to announce that I've joined the Department of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Bhopal as Assistant Professor. Sincere thanks to my advisors, mentors, teachers, and every well wishers for leading me to this wonderful opportunity! #newPI
