Through a donation of 500,000 testing kits and 1 million masks, we join hands with Americans in these difficult times.

Spring has Sprung! Happy Vernal Equinox! Quarantine isn’t too bad when you’ve got a fridge full of Tree House Brewing Co.🍺

I have taken my love of Tree House Brewing Co.🍺 to a new level during #quarantine! DIY coaster and candles! #NationalBeerDay #StayAtHome

THANK YOU for coming to my dissertation seminar today🎓 It has been a wonderful journey working with incredible friends and colleagues 🙏🏻 I am very grateful for all your support throughout my journey 🎉 Thank you so much again!!!!🥳 #PhDone #PhD #CRISPR #antiCRISPR #DrLee

BREAKING NEWS: The 2020 #NobelPrize in Chemistry has been awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna “for the development of a method for genome editing.”

Yesterday, Trump took full credit for the 30,000 Dow Jones, but took zero credit for 260,000 Americans who died from COVID, 40 million who face eviction or 26 million who don't have enough food to eat on Thanksgiving. No, Mr. President. The stock market is not the economy.

Optimization of NLS Composition Improves CRISPR-Cas12a Editing Rates in Human Primary Cells biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #bioRxiv

Preprint of my work on improved CRISPR-Cas12a gene editing. Great read for anyone who is interested in gene editing in general.

I am defending my phD thesis in 8 days. Also, I have accepted a scientist position at Excision BioTherapeutics. I am incredibly excited for the next stage of my career! Please reach out to me if you are interested in attending so that I can send you the Zoom meeting link.

My new epub is online in GEN Biotechnology. We improved CRISPR-Cas12a genome editing in human primary cells via NLS architecture optimization. The issue also features a great paper from ErikSontheimerLab on a single AAV vector for in vivo delivery of Nme2-ABE liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/ge…

In a study published in GEN Biotechnology, Scot Wolfe, PhD, and his UMass Chan Medical School team, increased Cas12a’s on-target #geneediting rate to nearly 100% by engineering the configuration of the enzyme’s nuclear localization signal. Read more: ow.ly/NUXG50JCCkP #CRISPR #CRISPRCas9
