Christian's work is out today. As a lab tradition, here he is stapling his @NatureCellBio paper outside the lab
Delighted to share Christian's work on the mechanism regulating apical sorting published today in @NatureCellBio . Christian is looking for a postdoc and any lab would be lucky to have him! @VUBasicSciences @VanderbiltCDB @VUCellImaging

Happy to see that Mini-review out.
The energy barrier to start writing was a real struggle but once over, I had a blast digging into the literature to expose my view on the messenger functions of cell death. doi.org/10.1042/BST20220925 @VanderbiltCDB @VUBasicSciences @LabMacara

Thanks so much to @Dev_journal and the selecting committee for shortlisting my application for this new and exciting program. Congratulations to all the other fellows - I am excited to build new connections with you all. Thanks to @LabMacara for their support.
We are delighted to announce our first cohort of Pathway to Independence (PI) Fellows. Following a very competitive call, we have selected eight talented postdocs who we will be supporting as they navigate the job market. journals.biologists.com/dev/…

At #CoBHumanDev, Vijay Sankaran @bloodgenes presented a new single-cell multiomics tool that they applied to studying haematopoiesis. While Loic Fort @LabMacara presented their data on the requirement for apoptosis and NTP signalling in the early cellular events during EMT.

Today in partnership with @emblebi, we’re releasing predicted structures for nearly all catalogued proteins known to science, which will expand the #AlphaFold database by over 200x - from nearly 1 million to 200+ million structures: dpmd.ai/AF-22-TW 1/

Recently published work by @LFort8, @LabMacara, and @VGamaLab in @NatureCellBio explores the transition of stem cells into heart cells, presenting the finding that one of two necessary signals comes from dying cells. Check out this interview to learn more! medschool.vanderbilt.edu/bas…

A study led by @macara_ian: Nucleotides released from dying cells act through P2Y2 receptors on surviving cells to license WNT-dependent differentiation from stem cells to cardiomyocytes.
