Very happy to share our latest paper – terrific work by Milad Alasady in @PNASNews
An HSF1–JMJD6–HSP feedback circuit promotes cell adaptation to proteotoxic stress | PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.23…
Replying to @MarcMendillo @PNASNews
Thank you to all other contributors: @SeeshaTakagishi , @DavidAmici4 , @Roger5mith , Dan Ansel, @EBartom , along with Dmitri Segal working with @mike_tilapia, and Martina Koeva working with Luke Whitesell and Susan Lindquist - who I miss very much
Happy to share our latest HAPSTR1 paper revealing novel factors in the HAPSTR1/HUWE1 axis & demonstrating its essential role in mammalian life. Terrific work by @DavidAmici4 with important contributions from Sammy Alhayek @LSAjournal doi.org/10.26508/lsa.2023023…
Additional contributions from @PrezKlein, Milad Alasady, McKenzi King, and our great collaborators Yi-Zhi Wang, Anika P Wilen, Weimin Song, Pei Zhu, Abhishek Thakkar, Adam Steffeck, @clara_peek & @savas_lab

Join us tomorrow for the BMG Seminar Series Speaker Matthew D. Shoulders! Hosted by Marc Mendillo. @MarcMendillo #viruses #Evolution #epigenetics #medicalresearch @NUFeinbergMed @ChemistryMIT
Big congrats Dr. @DavidAmici4 @NUMSTP on his thesis defense! Stellar body of work (stay tuned for last chap!)—such an absolute joy working with him! Back to M3 now, and I know so many more discoveries coming in the future!!
Beautiful work by @CaraveoPiso in @PNASNews on a neuron-astrocyte interplay driven by the octopamine metabolite with relevance to PD -- Octopamine metabolically reprograms astrocytes to confer neuroprotection against α-synuclein pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.22…
Awesome to see this very nice spotlight in @TrendsGenetics on our recent HAPSTR2 @NatureComms pub by @DavidAmici4 ! cell.com/trends/genetics/ful…

Meet a new addition to the HAPSTR family. Findings in @NatureComms from @LurieCancer's @MarcMendillo & @DavidAmici4 may help improve understanding of how #cancer and other diseases hijack stress response programming to survive. news.feinberg.northwestern.e… via @NUFeinbergMed
Thank you NU news for covering our recent HAPSTR2 publication (see nature.com/articles/s41467-0… ) and great photo of @DavidAmici4 !
Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified a gene that plays a role in cellular responses to #MolecularStressors, according to a study published in @NatureComms. spr.ly/60133q7Yh

28th Midwest Stress Response and Molecular Chaperone Conference @NorthwesternU. It was great to see everyone and learn about awesome science @kmo1001001 @HawleLab @dallandrummond @TrumanLab @MarcMendillo @bourboulialab @KravatsLab @WohleverL @TheMarq1 @MedMol @MattooLab and more
Such an amazing group! And very grateful for all you do— enabling our most exciting work
In 2022, the Chicago ABOA surpassed its fundraising goal of $575,000! In 2023, we’re looking forward to raising more money, having more fun, and continuing our fight against cancer! Learn how to join the fight at acsaboa.org!
Yes!! And super excited for the talks, and especially our keynote – the one and only @dallandrummond!!
One of the best meetings to start the year! We are covering topics on Proteostasis & Cancer, Chaperone Function and Regulation, Protein Aggregation, Degradation & Disease, and Stress Responses.
