🚨HAPPENING TOMORROW🚨 Don’t miss the 2025 ✨Yale Kavli Institute for Neuroscience Distinguished Lecture✨ with Erika Holzbaur, PhD (Penn Medicine PennMuscle)! All Yale University affiliates are welcome — you’ll want to be there 🧠🥂

Beautiful work on PCSK9 as driver of metastatic organ targeting in pancreatic cancer by Gilles Rademaker and Rushika M. Perera just out in nature!

Julien Berro thinks about the force – particularly around the 'cytoskeleton' scaffold inside our cells. The member of the Yale Nanobiology Institute spoke w/ Cytoskeleton Journal about the exciting projects that could pave the way to new medical therapeutics: bit.ly/berroforce

My lab has an open position for a postdoc, technician, and a PhD student. If you have an interest, please feel free to contact me. DM is welcome.

📢The Hanna Lab is coming to the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Penn State in January 2026! We’ll be digging into organelle health and resilience with a special focus on mechanisms that protect lysosomes under stress.

Wondering how/whether AI can be helpful in your mathematical models in cell biology? Whether you are a biologist, physicist, engineer, mathematician, or computer scientist, join us for the next Finding Your Inner Modeler, August 7-8 at UC Irvine! sites.google.com/uci.edu/2025fy…

🚨 Elon Musk, we need your attention! 🚨 A proposed 40% cut to the NIH budget will have catastrophic consequences for patients, biotech, academics, and most importantly, our economy. Here's why -->

Lysosomes are the cell’s recycling centers, but what pathways control the release of what they’ve broken down? In our new study, we uncover a surprising role for a scaffold associated with transport, JIP4, in controlling lysosomal cystine export 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

1/ I am happy to share our latest publication in Nature Neuro nature.com/articles/s4159…. We present the first subcellular proteomic atlas of the myelin–axon interface in human and mouse brain, revealing extensive Alzheimer‑related abnormalities.

The Celeste Karch demonstrate that MAPT mRNA and tau protein are expressed in microglia in human brains and in hiPSC-derived #microglia like cells. 🧠 💡Learn more in their new molecularpsychiatry study: go.nature.com/447xVwS

Pleased to share our invited News & Views piece in Nature Metabolism, highlighting the emerging role of lipid metabolism in fueling synaptic transmission. Grateful to Sunan Li for co-authoring this contribution with me.

Excited to share our publication in Translational Psychiatry! Nrsn2-KO mice reveal exciting insights into the basis of stress resilience and emotional regulation. nature.com/articles/s4139…

Meet this week's #TraineeTuesday, Michael Hanna, PhD, Michael Hanna! Mike is a postdoc in the De Camilli Lab & will start as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Penn State Penn State BMB in January 2026. Congratulations! [1/5]

One for the Apicomplexa peeps: ever wonder how does the IMC grow so fast during progeny formation? Where do all the lipids come from? In our latest work on malaria RBC stages we implicate VPS13 (gif below) and ER contact sites. Happy+proud to share and keen to hear thoughts!

📢 Calling all senior postdocs: SYNAPSES brings postdocs from around the world to Yale to share their latest work during an in-person symposium on October 23, 2025. Apply today! Deadline Sept 7. medicine.yale.edu/neuroscience/e…

Postdoc (4 years 🤓) Fellowship Alert! 🔬 Are you a computational biologist passionate about cellular biology and quantitative live-cell imaging? Get in touch to learn more and apply! Full details in the attached flyer.

Big congratulations to Regina Hijai Regina Shin for this well deserved recognition, so proud of you!

Consider joining us at Stanford as a postdoctoral fellow! If you have a published paper or a preprint, will graduate in the next period, and are excited to work in California, email me your CV and a brief statement of your research interests and trajectory by the end of August.
