Out today in @JCellBiol Work from the Mogessie, @FachinettiLab & @DrSteffi labs reveals how CENP-A/B/C cooperate to maintain kinetochore function in oocytes and how declining centromere strength predisposes aging eggs to aneuploidy. @pewhealth @HFSP

How does aging drive #oocyte #aneuploidy? Work from Mogessie, Fachinetti, and Redemann labs links reduced CENP-A/CENP-C to high rates of chromosome segregation errors during maternal #aging. hubs.la/Q04BzWpd0

Excited to share my postdoctoral work from the @BahmanyarLab!

We show that preferential tethering by LEMD2 over Emerin ensures faithful nuclear envelope assembly and link PC homeostasis (via CTDNEP1/CNEP-1) to nuclear morphology.

Super proud of my lab mate @vicpuccini from the @Bahmanyarlab for successfully defending her thesis today! 🎉
She discovered that the new transmembrane nucleoporin NPP-28/TMEM209 controls PLK-1 localization in mitosis.
Check out our preprint here: biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Excited to share our latest paper, out today @CellCellPress. We found that large pieces of the human genome can transfer between cells upon direct contact, endowing recipient cells with heritable phenotypic changes. (1/7)

Visibility in Academia, like in the world, is not fixed; it is produced. This piece “What Cell Biology Reveals About Academia” is a reminder that everyone has the potential to be either seen or unseen.

Very happy to see my corresponding author paper out in MBoC (@ASCBiology). Here we explore the organisation of the yeast seipin complex across lipid droplet formation and find interesting aspects of protein recruitment and wiring to nutrient availability.

The #ABRCMS2025 conference was my first scientific meeting as an undergrad, and it was the experience that propelled me into science. Being back this week, surrounded by brilliant, aspiring young scientists, has been incredible. #Seeingisbelieving

Ever wanted to do a genome-scale CRISPR screen for a microscopy-based phenotype? Pooled CRISPR screens are amazing, but hard to combine with microscopy... Excited to share a technology platform for such imaging screens and applications to primary cilia... cell.com/developmental-cell/…

Thrilled to share our work showing that the bridge lipid transport protein ATG2A transfers diacylglycerol (DAG), and TAG/PA, from the ER to LDs, thereby recruiting DGAT2 to drive local TAG synthesis, promoting LD expansion while protecting ER membranes.

I'm thrilled to share our new preprint, in which we've found that neurotransmitters can be chemically "marked" as a way to incorporate metabolic history - such as diet or life stage. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Led by Porhathai "Un" Malaiwong, Allen Schroeder and Tia Brown. 🧵(1/6)
