Penn State is hiring a senior cryo-EM faculty member. Single Particle or Tomography. The campus is beautiful and the cryo-EM facility is full of amazing instrumentation. Think about it. Or mention it to a friend. psu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/PSU_Acad…

Of all of our senses, the sense of touch is one of the most interesting and mysterious. It was among the last to give up its secrets with respect to the molecular receptors that mediate touch, a discovery recognized by the Nobel Foundation in 2021 1/n

The 2024 Gordon Research Conferences /GRS Signaling by Adhesion Receptors (July 13 - 19) is now open for applicants!! Forefront science and top speakers on cell adhesion and signaling in health and disease. Apply and submit your abstract! grc.org/signaling-by-a… Maddy Parsons Alex Dunn

Our latest on planar polarity mechanisms: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… No long thread (be grateful!) but the highlights are in the graphical abstract. We're excited because after decades of work we think we're moving towards a molecular understanding of what the proteins do.

Super excited to organize (w/The Green Lab & Kowalczyk Lab) a pre-mtg Society for Investigative Dermatology focused on translational research for National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) including blistering disorders #Darier & #HaileyHailey Disease. Thanks to partners PC Project for helping get the word out RE:our 1st symposium!

Excited our new grp focused on the rare genetic blistering disorders #Darier & #HaileyHailey Disease will partner w/PC Project for 2 awesome symposia before Society for Investigative Dermatology 2024 mtg. We aim to bring together researchers & clinicians to kindle translational synergy in our field!

Apply before Tuesday !!

And I’ll shout it for the microscopy peeps. LOOK DOWN THE EYE PIECES. Don’t just use the camera.

W-Lab January Science Dump, part 1: Stoked to have Caitlin Devitt's paper on PCP, septins, and actin organization in convergent extension out Current Biology with Shinuo Weng, Vidal Bejar-Padilla (aka El Presidente of UT), & José Alvarado! #xenopus #Morphogenesis Molecular Biosciences NaturalSciences @ UT cell.com/current-biolog…

PCP in the news! What up!?!?!

It’s Day 3 at #MCS24 and we are lucky to have Andrew Kowalczyk (Kowalczyk Lab) from Penn State University with his talk titled ‘INTERCELLULAR JUNCTIONS: ORGANIZERS OF ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM MORPHOLOGY AND DYNAMICS’

Greetings from Sunny Cancun! Our #MCS24 attendees have been busy making new “Contacts” this weekend! We cannot wait to celebrate all the fantastic research at our Gala Dinner this evening! ☀️💃🕺

So pleased to announce that the first chunk of my graduate work is out now in Developmental Cell 🫁🐭🔬 here we investigated the role of the planar cell polarity complex in lung sacculation, identifying a PCP-independent role for Vangl in the pulmonary mesenchyme authors.elsevier.com/c/1isRC5Sx5gxk…

Can't wait to enjoy Edel O'Toole's presentation at the IPCC Symposium. I always learn new things whenever she speaks and she genuinely cares for patients and improving their lives.

Thank you to our prior AIC visitors, Kowalczyk Lab, Mira Krendel, and Blankenship Lab, for joining our #AIC10 celebration and sharing your research with the HHMI | Janelia community.

Sacculation🛍️. The penultimate stage of lung🫁 development. In Dev Cell Cell Press researchers in the Devenport and Nelson labs show how planar cell polarity proteins work in the mesenchyme to prepare lungs for their first breath. molbio.princeton.edu/news/2024/deve…
