Congratulations Tyler for winning the American Parkinson Disease Association postdoctoral fellowship!

rdcu.be/cSmLO Our new collaborative work with Dr. Jiajie Diao has been published in Nature Communications! A fun project indeed.

We received a Cancer Center at Illinois (CCIL) research grant to apply optogenetic control in cancer cells!cancer.illinois.edu/category/cance…

Fun time spent at Milwaukee to make new friends and discuss science. uwm.edu/microspectrosc…

Tyler gave a talk at the Optical Micro-spectroscopy & Molecular Imaging in Milwaukee.

taylorfrancis.com/books/edit/10.… First edited book with Dr. Yubin Zhou on opsin-free optogenetics. Thank you all contributing authors! Hope to catch up with everyone in person soon.

chanzuckerberg.com/newsroom/biohu… Exciting opportunity.

Kritika's talk won 2nd place in the MCB retreat! Congratulations Kritika!

Just came back from my first in-person editorial board meeting for JMB at San Diego. It is great to finally meet all the great colleagues! Peter, thanks for the 33 years of leadership!

sciencedirect.com/science/articl… BLAST was published in JMB back in 1990!

sciencedirect.com/science/articl… The first protein structure solved by NMR was published in JMB back in 1985!

8 cross-disciplinary teams will receive awards in the final year of #Scialog: Microbiome, Neurobiology and Disease, sponsored by RCSA, Paul G. Allen Frontiers Group Allen Institute & Frederick Gardner Cottrell Foundation, with Walder Foundation support. bit.ly/3OHarZ7

Happy to share that we received a #Scialog award. Very excited about this project with ZhangLab ASU School of Life Sciences Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University

Biochemistry prof Kai Zhang ZhangLab will use Minflux super-resolution imaging to investigate assembly and interactions between supra molecular complex and organelles in cells.

mcb.illinois.edu/news/2023-09-0… Excited to be part of the team!

We published our first paper on optogenetic induction of cell death. Good job, TJ! Article Link: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Thanks, UIUC News Bureau, for the report! news.illinois.edu/view/6367/6334…

We found that PI3P mediates Arc trafficking between cells. Congratulations, Kritika, on publishing our first paper on Arc! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

A team of researchers including ZhangLab combined techniques in biochemistry, cell biology, and live cell imaging to determine the trafficking pathway used by Arc protein to communicate with other cells. go.mcb.illinois.edu/arc

Our first paper on Arc capsid assembly is online now! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Good job team. Thanks to all our collaborators and also MCB for reporting the work: mcb.illinois.edu/news/2024-09-1…

Thrilled to officially welcome cancer researcher Dr. Diana Ranoa to our school as an assistant professor of biochemistry! Learn more about Dr. Ranoa and the field of immuno-oncology: go.mcb.illinois.edu/ranoa
