Sharing your successes with friends can build trust. I wonder if sharing "only successes" and not "failures" could ruin the trust, or build anxiety in others.

Best way to record a presentation/talk? need a backup up for a live session, in case things fail.

For those of you who are amazed by the invention of the novel RNA vaccines for COVID-19 and are eager to learn (more) about RNA Therapeutics Kaveh Daneshvar is presenting an amazing course at Harvard on RNA-based Drugs and RNA Therapeutics. bit.ly/2Kkjbp5

These flight attendants having a little Christmas dinner together up in the sky was the greatest thing I saw today. Delta

“Valonia ventricosa” (bubble algae), possibly the largest unicellular organism.

Does a single nucleotide change in the sequence of approved mRNA vaccines trigger a new clinical trial?

Has anyone called outliers “socially distant datapoint” yet?

"The world is on the brink of a catastrophic moral failure," says Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus World Health Organization (WHO). >39 Million vaccine doses have been administered in 49 high-income countries. 25 (just 25) doses have been given in one low-income country.

Excellent work by ⁦Shanna Dewaele⁩ in our lab demonstrating the importance of #lncRNA SAMMSON for uveal melanoma cell survival. Preprint out now 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Hopping transposable elements generating diversity in transcription factors! Very interesting paper and thread.

Come work with us in a highly collaborative biotech venture ecosystem! I am hiring a Ph.D. scientist with expertise in molecular biology & protein biochemistry. We're developing new therapeutic modalities targeting RNA. tinyurl.com/y7fdov8z

Our pre-print is alive! We showed that KSHV-encoded polyadenylated nuclear (PAN) lncRNA is m6A modified by using 2nd and 3rd gen seq, identified frequency of m6A by a new method - SLAP, its structural impact, and related methylome biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

My boomer parents can't identify spam emails. My zoomer kids can't identify junk mail. Gen X FTW!

Glad to share our latest paper on a new role of RNA in homologous recombination. Thanks to members of my team and our collaborators! RNA transcripts stimulate homologous recombination by forming DR-loops | Nature nature.com/articles/s4158…

I wonder what type of biases and discriminations this algorithm is going to reinforce. Also, reminds me of this good book on a related topic: goodreads.com/book/show/2818…

Any suggestions for a high-yield T7 IVT kit that makes 5'-capped, 3'-poylA tailed mRNA with modified nucleotides (e.g. 5mCTP, ψUTP) to avoid cell immune response?

New preprint! How do you insert large genes efficiently + programmatically? CRISPR-based methods are programmable, integrases are efficient. Why not combine them? PASTE places short (~45bp) integrase landing sites that serve as beacons for insertion (up to 36kb)! Omar Abudayyeh

🚨!!!Preprint Alert!!!🚨 I am super-delighted to share our work co-led with Adriano Bolondi, PhD describing the discovery and characterization of a novel lncRNA, LNCSOX17, a key regulator of human definitive endoderm. #Meissner Lab MPI for Molecular Genetics. A🧵1/11 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
