Delighted to see the second story from my postdoc out today in @nature.com! I am so grateful for invaluable contributions from @palindromephd.bsky.social & @jasadex.bsky.social, and especially for unwavering mentorship from @vram142.bsky.social. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Pervasive and programmed nucleosome distortion on single chromatin fibres - Nature
An analytical pipeline called Iteratively Defined Lengths of Inaccessibility (IDLI) maps the genome-wide occupancy of a range of nucleosome types and shows that most nucleosomes exhibit programmed ‘di...

The eukaryotic replisome intrinsically generates asymmetric daughter chromatin fibers
DNA replication is molecularly asymmetric, due to distinct mechanisms for lagging and leading strand DNA synthesis. Whether chromatin assembly on newly replicated strands is also asymmetric remains un...

That's me! Thanks to Bob and Linda and Gladstone for the award and thanks to the organizers at @asbmb.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to share some of our as-yet-unpublished collaborative work between the labs of @vram142.bsky.social and @fmattiroli.bsky.social !

not paying indirect costs for research is like only paying the players in the Super Bowl. can't have a Super Bowl without coaches, referees, security, janitors, announcers, stadium staff, and a stadium - and you can't have research without supporting people and facilities

Here's a cat, for some joy today. (Her name is Llamita and she embodies the concept of "tortitude")

I'm privileged to be pretty healthy and have always had insurance, but even then, I have spent a lot of time and energy fighting insurance. In grad school I had dual coverage, which meant neither insurance wanted to pay and recently my insurance told me that only people under 18 had acne. 🙄🤔

If you choose to operate a vehicle when you are not sober, I have no respect for you and would urge you to make better choices for the sake of others on the road. In an instant, you can permanently affect the lives of someone's family and friends.

Big banana slug and gorgeous San Francisco skyline - as seen from near the top of San Bruno mountain this past weekend. It's really important for me to get out of the house even when I'm very busy!

Delighted to share our latest, co-led by Megan Ostrowski & Marty Yang. We describe replication-aware single-molecule accessibility mapping (RASAM 😁) -- a 3rd gen seq method to map the structure of individual, newly replicated chromatin fibers. Follow @martyyang.bsky.social & read his tweetorial!
