I just did an updated calculation of what happens to America if we do nothing. And it is nothing short of terrifying.
The current rate of spread is a near-perfect exponential. If we do not change our behavior dramatically and fast, here is what the math says: 1/n

On Thursdays, we usually highlight a single RNA scientist on our little platform. But since the Women In Science-Day was just two days ago, we wanted to take the opportunity to emphasize the importance and necessity of female researchers in general and in our field. (1/4)
'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the lab
not a buffer was stirring, not a timer gone mad.
Happy Holidays from the Boutz Lab!

New lab coats with the lab logo for the @BoutzLab!!!!!
Great presentation by Dhara as well!
Meet Molly Hulver - another rotation student in the lab! Molly is interested in post-transcriptional modification and her cats. Fun fact: she ran her first marathon this year!
Meet Joseph Bucukovski, the lab's 1st rotation student! Joe earned his BS and MS in Biomedical Engineering at the @UofR, after which he spent several years in biotech. He's interested in biosensors, emerging mol bio techniques, & cryo-EM. Fun fact: he just had a baby!

We had a successful, insightful Scientific Symposium today, celebrating #cancerresearch happening right here @WilmotCancer & @UofR! 🔬🎊🧬
Congrats to Davey Award winner Edith Lord & poster session winners.
Thanks to all who joined us! @urmceducation #URochesterresearch #ROC
Great symposium today @WilmotCancer - here are Tom and Robbin presenting our poster about the consequences of CDK12 loss-of-function in intronic polyadenylation and its role in cancer!

@BoutzLab
Great talk by Dr Paul Boutz on genomic approaches to better understand drug therapies and mechanisms!!!
Do smiley gels count too?
Today (4th October) is World Smile Day
be happy now 🙂

Meliora!
We're excited to welcome Dr. Carla Falkson to @WilmotCancer & @UofR!
She serves as Director of our Breast Oncology Clinical Research Program. Her research focus is #breastcancer clinical trials & she has a particular interest in HER2 & bone metastasis.
Welcome! #BCSM #ROC

From a paper published in @nature yesterday by @HarvardMed scientists.
I just reported it to the EiC, with shaking hands and pounding heart because scary to see that this passed #peerreview and editorial screening in such a high impact journal.
Big congrats to our friends across the hall and especially to the "Outstanding Investigator" himself @mitchellrayoco1! Well deserved. We can't wait to see more of the lab's cool research on CRISPR-Cas systems. #teamRNA

Rosalind Franklin would have been 99 today. A pioneer in crystallography #rosalindfranklin
Woowoo! 🥳
The second annual #RNADay is Aug 1, aka in just TWO WEEKS. Time to start planning the festivities!! 🎉🥳🧪
