Happy Birthday to me!!
Check out our latest work led by a talented grad student @PatrickExconde
Here we developed a platform that allows us to generate new PRRs that convert protein degradation into a cell death phenotype, enabling functional genetics!

Is single nucleus RNA-seq representative of single-cell transcriptomes and proteomes ?
This comparison shows that:
1β£ Both scRNA-seq and snRNA-seq correlate weakly to single-cell proteomes.
2β£ The correlation is much lower for snRNA-seq

Enjoyed reviewing and summarizing this important & reproducible (yes we tried it) paper on how DMSO is sufficient to induce human balstoids from human naive PSCs, emphasizing (again) the great importance cell state has on embryo models formed.

Weβre incredibly grateful to Legal Sea Foods for their continued support of my lab at Boston Childrenβs Hospital. This year, Matt King, Brand President & COO, presented a donation made possible through proceeds from kids' meals at Legal Sea Foods. Thank you for your support!
Dear Friends! Please VOTE-4-KATIE! My grad student Katie Toohill made it to the ProteinTech "Rising Research Award" final round! It would mean a lot to me and the lab if you voted for her (once a day!!) tinyurl.com/dzwmmr2e

Talked to staff in @SenMikeLee's office today about the OMB proposals that will change how grant decisions will be made. Thanks to Stand Up for Science for organizing the meeting. We all need to be doing what we can right now, in addition to making comments online. Link below:

Great publication by our former Postdoc Nick (Chun) So, now PI at NIBS.
Congratulations to So Lab @SpermnOocyte and the team! π₯³
Why 50% of human fertilized eggs fail to complete pre-implantation development?
Latest work from my lab in @CellCellPress now clarifies the two causes that contribute to the low efficiency of early human embryos and provides one of the solutions. (1/7)

Excited to share that our preprint 'RNA reinforces condensate nucleation on chromatin to amplify oncogenic transcription' is now online @MolecularCell cell.com/molecular-cell/full⦠@PennMedCSO @PennCancer @PennEpiInst
(1/n) Excited to share our new preprint! We uncover that RNA actively promotes nucleation and function of pathogenic condensates, amplifying locus-specific oncogenic transcription and promoting tumorigenesis. #epigenetics #condensates #cancer #RNA biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/β¦
What happens inside human egg cells as they age, and why are errors so common?
In the new episode βAch, Mensch!β of @detektorfm (in German), Melina talks about fertility, ageing egg cells, future fertility treatments and the motivation behind her research.
