Hello everyone! I am helping to organize a one-day symposium on fluorescent metabolite biosensors and their use in metabolism research. It will be May 12-13 and associated with the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory “Mechanisms of Metabolic Signaling” Symposium. Our field needs to be

Thrilled to share that my work is out in nature. Here, we introduce Peptide Predictor, a tool for identifying new bioactive peptides. Using this method, we discovered BRP, an anti-obesity peptide. Huge thanks to the SvenssonLab and all our collaborators! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Today in nature, we share our latest paper. We developed an algorithm to predict novel peptides cleaved by proconvertases across all human tissues. Using this method, we identified BRP, a brain-derived anti-obesity peptide. nature.com/articles/s4158…

I found out this morning that my NIH NICHD News F31 fellowship to study the biomechanics of uterine fibroids was CANCELLED.

Finally got the notice. Very sad day for the MOSAIC program that supported some of the most amazing scientists I know, as well as some of the awesome people on my lab.

Happy to share our collaborative effort to better understand how dietary fiber impacts metabolite levels and cancer immunotherapy

I'm swimming 5 miles to support the American Cancer Society Society. This swim is dedicated to my grandmother and aunt, who both lost their lives to cancer, and to the researchers striving every day to bring us closer to a cure gofund.me/fc752d90

My lab was totally destroyed tonight by an Iranian missile. Nobody was hurt. Flies, plasmids, cells, equipment - all gone. Heart breaking. If during the course of the past 16 years, you have received something from my lab - please keep them safe.

The Jones lab is recruiting for a second opportunity Van Andel Institute (VAI) to study the metabolic underpinnings of autoimmune disease. Details and application portal here: vai.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/VAICaree…
