Congratulations Dr. Emmy Li! Thank you for your many contributions to the lab. We will miss you, your fearless embrace of new technologies to pursue important questions, and your sense of humor. Rooting for you as you embark on your next adventures! #kampmannlabproud

Neurons and astrocytes closely coordinate their gene expression, in a program we call “SNAP” – a collaboration that we find to be central in protection from schizophrenia and cognitive aging. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Check out this new preprint/white paper from our friends at Entwine bio together with Vishnu Ram and Zaro Lab. We and others have long been interested in sequence-to-function modeling in RNA, especially as it comes to splicing. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

exciting new techniques from Vishnu Ram's lab! Adaptations of SMRT and SAMOSA with tagmentation for much lower input material for the former, and addition of chromatin accessibility for the latter. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Gladstone Investigator Vijay Ramani (Vishnu Ram) and collaborator Siva Kasinathan (Siva Kasinathan, MD, PhD) led a study that demonstrates how two new tools can perform single-cell genetic sequencing using less DNA than required by today’s gold-standard methods. bit.ly/4bIUD0Z

Excited to share our latest paper led by Rachel Glenn. We generated a genetically diverse mouse pluripotent stem cell panel from the Diversity Outbred stock and outline experimental approaches for "population-scale" in vitro directed differentiation. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Grateful for the chance to sit down with Shari Wiseman Nature Neuroscience to discuss my lab’s work on glia and some of the challenges I’ve faced as a trans and indigenous person on the path to a career in academic science.

Happy #InternationalDogDay to the best puppy in the world!

Excited to present my first large piece of work of my PhD: ATP-dependent remodeling of chromatin condensates uncovers distinct mesoscale effects of two remodelers. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thank you to everyone in the Narlikar/Ramani labs who made it possible! 1/n

A mouse organoid platform for modeling cerebral cortex development and cis-regulatory evolution in vitro biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_devbio

Beyond excited to share my main postdoctoral work. We developed a robust mouse cortical organoid system, which recapitulates in vivo tempos and cellular diversity, and applied it to identify gene expression changes across subspecies during development. shorturl.at/9w0zT

Incredibly excited that our paper linking single molecule states of TF binding to gene expression using quantitative thermodynamic models is out in Nature today. An amazing collaboration with the Bintu Lab. Congrats to Ben, Michaela, and Julia! nature.com/articles/s4158…
