Annan and Jim (Hurley Lab ), thank you for highlighting our recent work along with the cool paper from David Broadbent. It is fun to see the two stories side-by-side.

A big thank you to Roux Lab and Karin Reinisch for inviting my review on lipid transport in autophagosome biogenesis in Current Opinions in Cell Biology. Focusing on last 2+ years in this area limited the review to... still too many cool stories. doi.org/10.1016/j.ceb.…

Celebrating the end of an amazing era of ⁦Yale Cell Biology⁩ ⁦as our Chair Jim Rothman steps down. He built our department into a thriving, collegial, and collaborative mecca founded on the bedrock importance of asking fundamental biological questions. He will be missed.

“I am a cell biologist wishing to study lipids: where do I start?" Here, we provide an overview of the latest techniques to help you dive into the fascinating realm of lipid and membrane biology. #LipidResearch #CellBiology 🧪🔬

If you are interested in computational methods for membrane trafficking and #lipidtime biology, please have a look at our #openaccess (opinionated) review, just out in in Current Opinion in Cell Biology sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Come be my colleague at @NICHD_NIH! Great opportunity for a physician-scientist to establish an independent translational research program integrating both basic and clinical research. Clinical Tenure-Track Translational Investigator, NICHD irp.nih.gov/careers/facult…

*PhD opening - please RT* PhD position open in my lab for Autumn 2023 - Early 2024 start. This is a 3-year position working on autophagy control of differentiation using human iPSC-derived neurons and glia. DM or email me for further details. Home (UK) students only I'm afraid.

Are you a postdoc in any area of neuroscience preparing for the next career step? Then apply to present at our Yale SYNAPSES seminar series and expand your network! We welcome a diverse group of neurobiologists. The deadline is September 5. apply.interfolio.com/128175

Our new preprint reveals that the interaction of the bridge-like lipid transport protein VPS13A with the lipid scramblase XK at ER-plasma membrane contacts in K562 cells correlates with erythroid differentiation Chase Amos Yale Cell Biology Yale Neuroscience biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congrats Justin! Really nice work showing ATG2 function on monolayer-wrapped LDs and careful characterization of a transport dead mutant which loses bridge-like but not shuttle-like lipid transport capacity. Thanks also to Abdou Rachid Thiam for cool studies with monolayer mimics.

Very interesting study from the Baehrecke Lab! Congratulations!!!

Let’s start the week in style: just out in Biorxiv one of the most important results from my lab, with the Reinisch lab Yale School of Medicine: “Lipid scrambling is a general feature of protein insertases”. The title pretty much sums it up. Short 🧵(1/13). biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
