I'm thrilled to announce that my lab will be opening at WashU in 2027! We'll be studying the genetic underpinnings of human evolution with a focus on transposable elements and transcription factor binding! We're hiring at all levels, so check out the website thecarterlab.com!

Very happy to announce that I’ll be launching my lab at WashU in 2027! We’ll build on this work to uncover the mechanisms and diversity of epigenetic memory and its role in human disease. Hiring at all levels to start early 2027 — learn more or reach out: nagarajalab.org

A little late to Bluesky but my postdoc work w/ @jbuenrostro.bsky.social now out in @nature.com "Epigenetic memory of colitis promotes tumour growth" www.nature.com/articles/s41... We wanted to understand how transient inflammation can create an increase in cancer risk, even after full recovery 🧵

Epigenetic memory of colitis promotes tumour growth - Nature

Colonic stem cells retain a memory of inflammation following disease resolution and there is a mechanistic link between chronic inflammation and malignancy, suggesting potential strategies to mitigate...

New to bluesky, but I’m excited to share my work over the last few years with @jbuenrostro.bsky.social! Chronic inflammation creates an epigenetic memory in colonic stem cells, priming them for tumor growth: tinyurl.com/ColitisNagar.... Here’s a walkthrough of what we found (🧵)
