Our latest on medulloblastoma and PRDM6, a member of the PRDF1 and RIZ1 homology domain-containing family of transcription factors, is out. Read the full-text here: rdcu.be/dNv7Q
Congrats Christin and co-authors! @NeurosurgUCSF @UCSF #braintumors #medulloblastoma

Excited to share my work at #cellbio2023 about DNA double-strand breaks in neurons. Let's talk at my poster on Monday and don't miss my talk on Wednesday!
Very proud of Sarah Cohen for winning the best poster prize at @UCSFAging Symposium. Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉

What a beautiful day for our inaugural symposium! Thank you to our keynote speakers, faculty, and trainees for making it a success. #aging @UCSFAging @deyoungmuseum
great talk by Sarah today at the awesome @UCSFAging symposium at the de Young museum in beautiful Golden Gate Park.

Congrats Laura! Congrats also to Ayush from our lab who was one of the finalists! Great job!
When worms lined up like a marching band, @ucsfgraddiv's postdoc scholar Laura Persson investigated. Collective behavior may seem natural, but it's a complex process aided by humans' 86 billion brain neurons. Congrats on winning UCSF's #PostDocSlam with 'The Wormnado'!

Our new paper on how stem cells coordinate transcription and DNA replication to protect genome integrity is out now in @NatureSMB: nature.com/articles/s41594-0…. More info ⬇️. @UCSF, @UCSFstemcell, @UCSFUrology, @UCSFCancer, @UCSF_ObGynRS
Super exciting live imaging 🔬of the cellular 🧬DNA repair response at @MBLScience #MBLPhysiology with @LauraCheradame1 of @UCSF @MullinsLab + @SchwerLab.
