So grateful and excited to begin this new research journey! Congratulations to all past and current lab members whose creativity made these ideas possible!! @yaleschoolofmed.bsky.social @yalecvrc.bsky.social @yalerna.bsky.social @yalegenetics.bsky.social medicine.yale.edu/news-article...

Nicoli Wins NIH Pioneer Award to Develop a New Kind of mRNA Therapy

Nicoli’s lab discovered mRNA that changes how proteins behave. Now she wants to turn it into medicine, starting with diseases of the blood vessels.

🧬🔬 Why are enhancers transcribed and how does that impact gene regulation? I’m really excited to share our new paper in @science.org showing that noncoding RNAs control the timing of gene activation in embryos. With Mike Levine #ScienceResearch @columbiamed.bsky.social A few highlights below... 🧵👇

Noncoding transcription controls the developmental dynamics of long-range gene regulation

The genomic regions regulating gene expression are often themselves transcribed into a variety of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). However, the regulatory roles of this noncoding transcription remain largely ...

Zebrafish Rock! 🎃@zebrafishrock.bsky.social · 11mo ago

#KnowYourZDM: In 2019, a 10-year-old patient w/ a life-threatening lymphatic disorder was losing hope. Zebrafish to the rescue! Scientists created zebrafish with the same gene mutation and found a melanoma drug that fixed the fish. Then, doctors used the same drug on the patient to save his life! 🧪

Zebrafish are an excellent model for studying the development and function of blood and lymphatic vessels. Research in zebrafish has even led to treatments for lymphatic disorders in people. This image, taken using a powerful microscope that uses lasers to illuminate the fish, shows blood vessels (magenta) and lymphatic vessels (green) in the eye and head of an anesthetized, 6-week-old, transgenic zebrafish.

After 7 years and a lot of memories, I've finally decided to retire Zebrafish Rock! on social media. I really want to say it was always positive but I've had a tumultuous experience with the account. Those that make the community more toxic continue to be promoted to positions of power. 1/4
