The first paper from my lab was published last week in Nature Genetics @NatureGenet. The main finding is that phosphorylation on a serine that is unique to H3.3 promotes p300 activity and enhancer acetylation. nature.com/articles/s41588-0…
This is an amazing opportunity to work with a talented scientist tackling important and just super cool questions.
Our lab is hiring at all levels! We’ve got multiple cool projects looking at metabolism, placenta biology, chromatin regulation. Click here to read more: labs.utsouthwestern.edu/solm…
And email me at [email protected] if you are interested!
Joint postdoc position available with Ashley Solmonson @ASolmonson at the interface of developmental metabolism and gene regulation. Please get in touch if interested!

Very happy to share the first first-author paper from the first student to graduate from my lab (a lot of firsts!).

A new paper from @SebastianDeindl @crispr_cookie @RU_biophysicist used photocaged NTPs to increase measurement throughput of single-molecule experiments. go.nature.com/3S8hYzn

Our newest faculty member makes his podcast debut! Listen as Dr. Grow discusses his research.
What came first—the chicken 🐔 or the egg 🥚 (or the fertilized embryo)? In this episode of the @stemcellpodcast, listen to Dr. Edward Grow (@ControllingLMNT) discuss the development of the egg, the fertilized embryo, and regulating #totipotency in ESCs. bit.ly/3xDVNsx

On this #wormWednesday, excited to share that our paper describing a newly isolated Girardia planarian is now available at @Dev_Bio_Journal!
Beautiful graphical abstract created by my awesome co-first author @S_Nowotarski.

One of the great things about being at UTSW is the opportunity to work with and learn from clinical colleagues. Congratulations to REI fellow, Dr. Jennifer Shannon, on publication of her research in MHR! @Repro_UTSW @UTSWScience
New paper from the @BanaszynskiLab on follicle cryopreservation published at MHR: Shannon et al., performed ATAC-seq in fresh and cryopreserved follicles to analyze how cryopreservation affects chromatin accessibility data. You can read it here 👇

I'm so proud of Ryan O'Hara's work @dzra investigating the relationship between heterochromatin formation and euchromatic transcription factor binding. 1/
biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Further, a number of studies coming to similar conclusions (that ERVs can compete with euchromatin for transcription machinery) have been recently published or will be appearing soon (talk about convergence!). Maybe there's really something there. 11/
