From tomorrow until Thursday, undergrads *AND* grads can vote on 2 student govt resolutions. Vote YES on AR 13-25 to demand @Umich admin condemn the genocide in Palestine & divest! Vote NO on AR 13-26, which seeks to suppress acknowledgement of the ongoing humanitarian crisis.

As a member of last year’s ACGT cohort, I’m super excited to have the chance to participate in Hill Day again this year to talk about the importance of NIH funding for genetics research!
For the next two weeks, ASHG’s ACGT advocates will be virtually meeting with Congressional offices to share exciting advances in human genetics & genomics research and the importance of robust NIH funding. Join in: congressweb.com/ASHG/ #FundNIH

I'm excited to share part of my thesis work in @SequenceMan's laboratory! We used a humanized yeast model to show that AARS1 mutations associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease can act as dominant-negative alleles, repressing wild-type AARS1 function. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
