My artwork made it to cover of @Dev_Cell! It’s a representation of the findings of our latest study. Can’t imagine a better way to mark my last day as a postdoc!

We had a farewell party for postdocs Susie Newcomb @suztown and @FrankMacabenta this weekend as they move on to new positions! Susie will be an Assistant Director for Faculty Development at the @USC CET, and Frank will be an Assistant Professor at @CSUMB! All the best to both!

If you're a cell, taking the road less traveled can have deadly consequences.🛣️ Happy to announce that postdoc @FrankMacabenta and former undergrad Miriam Sun's new paper on quality control during collective migration has been published in @Dev_Cell! tinyurl.com/mr2md8rd

WE ARE HIRING in sunny Los Angeles! (1) Postdoc position to study how signaling checkpoints act to ensure cells migrating off-track are eliminated by programmed cell death. (2) An entry-level research technician position is available to provide support. stathlab.caltech.edu/contact

On the brink(er) of a breakthrough? Susie @suztown explains her and Leslie’s beautiful work on characterizing the regulation of brinker in the ovary and its roles in regulating tissue homeostasis and Dpp levels! Read the story here: bit.ly/3Ksuwxt #Dros22

The @stathlab is at #Dros22! We are presenting posters on gene regulation in the ovary, our NanuTrap system, and cell cycle-dependent quality control during collective cell migration! So excited to be in our first in-person meeting in a while 🥳 🪰

Finally, @FrankMacabenta will be presenting his upcoming work on how FGF and BMP work together to set up a quality control mechanism that eliminates wandering cells during muscle founder cell collective migration! Check out poster 214C on April 9 1:30-3:30pm!

Had a great time carving pumpkins with the @voorheeslab! The pumpkins were so cool -- one might even venture to say, gourd-geous! 🎃

Some pretty good pumpkins from the labs on our floor!

FP maturation times got you down? No prob-llama! Our latest study helmed by postdoc Zsuzsa Ákos and published in @Dev_journal describes NaNuTrap, a technique that utilizes llama nanobodies for rapid labeling of nuclei in #Drosophila for live imaging! rb.gy/acrxrq
