Thrilled to share our published eLife - the journal paper "Inflammasomes primarily restrict cytosolic Salmonella replication within human macrophages" by 1st author Dr. Dr. Marisa Egan (CAMB Graduate Group alum, now an Assistant Professor at Swarthmore College Biology)! 🧵(1/n) elifesciences.org/articles/90107
Most inflammasome mutations in humans are gain of function, which complicates the question of why we have these molecular machines. Dr. Sunny Shin et al provide strong evidence that we need inflammasomes to prevent Salmonella infection. A must read! elifesciences.org/articles/90107
Spread the word! Great opportunity for cancer immunology/immunology focused postsocs Cancer Research Institute
Don't miss today's seminar! Excited to host Shaun and learn all about the ubiquitin proteasome system. UPenn Dept of Biochem & Biophys
TODAY's MMI Thursday Seminar features Penn Medicine UPenn Dept of Biochem & Biophys Assistant Professor Yi-WeiChang Yi-Wei Chang TODAY Thurs April 3 12:00Noon Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health Becton Dickinson Hall W1020
Inflammasomes & cytosolic Salmonella replication ft. Dr. Marisa Egan, Emily O'Rourke, Tabitha Demissie, Emma Hunter, Antonia Bass, Dr. Sunny Shin (Penn Microbiology), Shrawan Kumar Mageswaran, Biao Zuo, Inna Martynyuk, Yi-Wei Chang (@BB_Upenn) & Igor Brodsky (@PennVet) elifesciences.org/articles/90107
Our latest work, led by Benjamin Jackson and Angela Montero Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center demonstrates how intracellular metabolic gradients induce dependence on exogenous pyruvate in embryonic stem cells
Congratulations to Katalin Kariko (Penn Neurosurgery), Virginia Lee (Penn Path & Lab Medicine), E. John Wherry (PennSysPharmATT) & Mark Devlin (Penn Physics and Astronomy) on their election to National Academy of Sciences! tinyurl.com/5eehdtms
Fantastic work by Inflammasome Lab showing in vivo the importance of regulating caspase-1 activity in inflammatory conditions! Caspase-1 self-terminates protease activity to enforce homeostasis and prevent inflammasome-driven diseases biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are excited to share our EVENTS for #BlackInBiophysicsWeek 2025!!! We will be host #BIBPSWeek from Monday, 5/26 to Friday 5/30. RT and help us spread the word! A thread of Events below #BIBPS25 #BlackInBiophysics Biophysical Society BlackInX The Ernest E. Just Life Science Society
New paper alert! In collaboration with the Adrian Bracken and Brien labs in Molecular Cell we identify a specific PRC1 complex which is hijacked in #DMG to drive the malignant state. Lays the framework for a new therapeutic strategy! University of Pennsylvania Neurology Penn Epigenetics Penn Medicine - Abramson Cancer Center
I discuss the urgent crisis from the loss of federal support of science in the US and recent clinical gene editing breakthroughs with Walter Isaacson & Christiane Amanpour on Amanpour and Company, airing on PBS tonight at 11 pm ET, and on CNN International earlier today. Pls share! youtube.com/watch?v=8YhJM6…
#BIBPSRollCall Hi I’m J! I study intrinsically disordered proteins using single-molecule and computational techniques with a particular focus on IDRs in transcription factor fusions like PAX3-FOXO1. Excited for Black In Biophysics week and looking forward to meeting new faces!
