ACTION ITEM-----ACTION ITEM Implementation of Schedule F This is what a lot of us have been worried about. This allows for many civil service positions to replaced with political appointees. This could include NIH institute directors and even POs. BUT THERE IS A COMMENT PERIOD... 1/n

I am elated to share that our manuscript describing Variant-EFFECTS, a high-throughput technology we developed to precisely and quantitatively measure the effects of CRISPR-mediated edits on gene expression, is now published at @cellpress.bsky.social: authors.elsevier.com/c/1kxgiL7PXu...

I am honored to be elected into the 2025 class of AAAS Fellows! It is surreal to see my name in the list. I am very grateful to lab members over the last 10 years & to Aaron Streets & Jason Sello for the chance to co-launch the Next Gen Symposium (1/2). news.stanford.edu/stories/2025...

Small proteins can be more complex than they look! We know proteins fluctuate between different conformations- but by how much? How does it vary from protein to protein? Can highly stable domains have low stability segments? @ajrferrari.bsky.social experimentally tested >5,000 domains to find out!

Preprint alert! Interested in high-throughput microfluidic droplet screening? Read on for more about postdocs Samuel Thompson & Zijian (ZJ) Yang's (from the Soh lab) paper demonstrating successful FACS sorting double emulsions at rates of 1,000,000/hour (!) (1/n) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
abstract with icons showing double emulsion droplets, icons showing loading tubes with and without a corkscrew, schematized data showing number of droplets sorted over time (with the corkscrew leading to more droplets over time), and cartoon tubes with successfully sorted droplets.
