Now out nature, our paper on HiDEF-seq: single-molecule DNA sequencing that resolves single-strand changes (mismatches and damage)! go.nature.com/3KG7Njh

Dr. Gilad D. Evrony and his team have developed a new technique called Hairpin Duplex Enhanced Fidelity Sequencing, or HiDEF-seq, to detect early molecular changes in genetic code—before mutations occur. Read more about their study in nature: nyulangone.org/news/new-techn…

It’s finally out! 🥳 Today @cellcellpress we report non-mineral fossils of ancient chromosomes in skin from a woolly mammoth that died in Siberia, 52,000 years ago. 🦣💨 Don’t miss our thread below! 🧵👇🏽

Excited to see NYU Langone Health researcher Gilad Evrony's recent nature study highlighted in Dr. Monica M. Bertagnolli's latest blog post! ⤵️

Big news this week! I was selected to give my first conference talk at #cshlglia and won the Lefler predoctoral fellowship!

Excited to share our #MultiRegion #SingleCell dissection of #Alzheimers out in nature today studying #Reelin in #RegionSpecific #NeuronalVulnerability, #CholineMetabolism and #PolyAmineBiosynthesis in #CognitiveResilience, #Astrocyte diversity, #Thalamus-specific #Interneurons,

I had a wonderful time presenting at the HarvardBrainScience Journeys in Neuro event earlier this week. It was so rewarding to be able to talk to the next generation of young scientists and hopefully be a resource for them as many others have been for me :)

Took an X hiatus but we're back, and with exciting news- PhD student Gizem Terzioğlu has been awarded an Edward R. and Anne G. Lefler Center Predoctoral Fellowship! Make sure to keep an eye out for all the cool things she's doing with INPP5D and AD!

New TYP lab preprint alert! Our previous PhD student Hyo Lee (& amazing collaborators) profile iPSC-derived astrocytes from 44 ROSMAP individuals and compare to brain data from the same people! You can find all the cool findings here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

And since it's #FluorescenceFriday we'd love to share a beautiful image of iPSC-derived astrocytes featured in our new preprint (Green = GFAP, Red = S100B, Blue = DAPI)! Image credit: talented PhD student Alex Lish 😎

Just saw an absolutely amazing show by Glass Animals! What made it even better was that they 1) used the correct, B-form of DNA and 2) had, what I am 100% sure were, ddPCR droplets in their animations #GlassAnimals #scienceinpopculture

Congratulations to Tracy for receiving the 2024 Zenith Fellows Award by Alzheimer's Association! #ALZfunded

Graduate students all the way!

Congratulations Tracy for being selected for the Harvard BBS Graduate Program Mentoring Award, and thank you to our BBS PhD students for the nomination!

Had a great time this past weekend presenting a poster with Olivia Pembridge at the BBS at Harvard retreat!! A great weekend with lots of friends, fun, and (some) science!! Also congratulations to Tracy (Young-Pearse Lab) for winning this year's BBS mentorship award!
