Our lab is recruiting a new postdoc to join our team to study mechanisms of protein quality control! Hit me up if you're interested in the biochemistry and structural biology of the Cdc48/p97/VCP AAA+ ATPase in the context of cancer and therapeutics. RTs appreciated!

There will be several sessions at this event, so if you have a cool CELL BIOLOGY AND/OR CANCER story, please email me or Ben Myers Lab !! It's always a fun and engaging event, so please do consider reaching out!

In this episode (#312) of The Drive, I speak with George A. Brooks, Ph.D. This conversation discusses the fundamentals of metabolism, common misconceptions between lactate and lactic acid, and how lactate serves as a fuel for the brain and muscles. bit.ly/4d72RjZ

We are recruiting a tenure-track assistant/associate professor in UMPhysiology studying cardiovascular physiology/pathophysiology. Pursue ground-breaking science while training the next generation of scientists in a supportive department! Apply here: apply.interfolio.com/150809

Thrilled to announce the Lawrence Lab will open its doors within UCLA Biological Chemistry UCLA Biological Chemistry in January 2025! I couldn’t be more excited!

Title of this Mol Cell preview from Lucas Sullivan, FTW 🙌🏼😂 “Thrifty tissues prefer recycled purines over new-cleotides” Molecular Cell Awesome science from Gerta Hoxhaj Lab and DeBerardinis Lab deserving of an awesome write-up 💪🏼 cell.com/molecular-cell…

Gerty Cori was the first woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. With her husband, Cori uncovered the process of cellular energy storage and release, answering one of the most fundamental questions about how the human body works.

“I did multiomics” 1. Ran all the methods at my core facility in my samples 🎉 2. Some stuff correlates between the omes. Don’t ask about the stats 3. RNA and protein mostly don’t correlate but I won’t highlight that 4. Okokok I’ll just revert to cherry picking

#MetabolismPower! Paras Minhas, MD, PhD, Jeff Jones, PhD, Latif-Hernandez, Andreasson &co show Science Magazine that, in Alzheimer Disease, inhibition of IDO1 restores astrocyte’s glycolysis & their release of lactate that is then utilized by #neurons to improve cognition! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Work on the Salt Lake City Foothills trail system has been delayed long enough. Share your views at link below or [email protected]. myslc.gov/s/lwcos?c__tar…

We know some of you are dreaming of this...

SLC folks, the City Council is holding a vote on Tuesday that'll decide whether or not to expand the Foothill trails. It's something bikers, hikers, and runners desperately need. Please call/email your reps and spread the word.

Here's a very simple site that helps break down Amendment D in Utah and why we absolutely must vote against it and educate everyone we know to do the same. Please share this far and wide. Not just on Twitter. Share this with the people you know in love. dstandsfordeceit.com
