Really great opening so far to ☀️ #Yeast26 🌊, including a superb Winge-Lindegren Address from our very own Gavin Sherlock! 🧬 #YeastResearch #Yeast

Thanks to everyone who stopped by our #SGD booth at last night's #Yeast26 poster session! Especially our best bud who's clearly ready for some serious budding yeast research 🐕✨ Who needs AirBud when you've got a YeastBud? 🧬💙 🧪 #SGD #YeastResearch

Pleased to talk about two related papers from our lab this Spring in GENETICS @genetics-gsa.bsky.social. These two studies are each the work of graduate students in my lab, with contributions from our colleagues. I will describe our system first and then each of the studies /1

you've heard alot about how cells are or are not crowded at the molecular scale, but what about at the organelle scale? in her new preprint, @marymirvis.bsky.social develops a quantitative way to ask this question in budding yeast - see her thread below www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

1/13 So excited to share our new preprint!! How do organelles pack together in a crowded cytoplasm? we know organelles interact via contact sites, but how does competition for space contribute to organelle morphology and interactions? @wallaceucsf.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

A staffing shortage is making it difficult for the US National Institutes of Health to spend its US$47-billion budget by awarding research grants. go.nature.com/4dal2b5

NIH staffing shortage could slash number of new grants issued this year

Some units at the US funding giant are so understaffed, they are focusing on mandated grant renewals rather than new awards.

New in #GENETICS from @hainerlab.bsky.social: The nucleosome remodelers esBAF and INO80 selectively influence subcompartment identity and enhancer–promoter communication at key regulatory loci during higher-order chromatin organization in mice. 🔗 buff.ly/0eU5xg0
