A fantastic first day at the 3rd Rocky Mountain RNA Symposium. It’s such a privilege for Kaitlyn and I to be part of the Colorado RNA community for a few days. Colorado RNA Club RNA Bioscience Initiative | CU Anschutz

Beautiful demonstration of the complex interplay between mtROS, GSDMD, and cell death!

How lucky are we that this year’s International Brucellosis Society meeting brought one of our favorite people, Dr. Dirk Hofreuter, to Bryan/College Station?

Networking tip: If there's someone you want to speak to a conference, send an email and try to schedule a lunch/coffee break for a set time/place. Its: -Flattering to recipient. -More effective than "we should talk at some point" -One less break to fill awkwardly standing around

When in Chicago (O’Hare International Airport). Next stop, Edinburgh! See you soon, RNA World! The RNA Society #RNA24

I finally have an answer to the age old question of “if you got a tattoo, what would you get?” The RNA Society Excited for Day 4 of #RNA24

It’s not an RNA gala without a performance on the dance floor from Luhrmann and Beggs. Hope everyone had a fantastic meeting. See you in San Diego for #RNA25!

For anyone who missed out on RNA 2024...

Last pic at our Texas home! 🏠 Goodbyes are hard but the Patrick/Watsons are excited to start our new lives in Nashville! ThePatrick&WatsonLabs opens at Vanderbilt University Medical Center Vanderbilt Health VI4Research next week!

First week in the books! So thankful for these #TeamVandy first wave trainees for all their hard work unpacking the lab! VI4Research

Lab outing to Nashville SC. Robbie and I are excited to rep both Nashville and Vanderbilt Health with the same shirt! Mackenzie Smith

This beautiful, mechanistic work provides a fantastic example of how RNA binding proteins and alternative splicing guide immunity. Congrats to Tima Karginov, who has had my favorite poster at RNA meetings for several years now ;)
