Congratulations Dr. Maimuna Sali Paul (@Maimuna_SP)! Starting soon her own research lab as Assist. Prof. @ Manipal University!👏👏👏Amazing 5 years as our lab's 1st postdoc, building a new lab, & exciting new discoveries. @bcmhouston @TCHResearchNews @bcmgenetics @bcm_neurosci

This microscope can simultaneously sequence an individual cell’s DNA and pinpoint the location of its proteins with high resolution — all without having to crack the cell open and extract its contents go.nature.com/3Y5jqGG
Our lab website is now live! 🎉 Please check it out at dbiolab.com to learn about our #research and more!!
Congratulations to stellar BCM medical students Melina Corriveau & Joshua Korb for leading the study with amazing collaborators from @bcmhouston and Cain Pediatric Neurology Foundation #DuncanNRI @TexasChildrens! Identifying MEF2C-AS1 in epilepsy #epilepsy #RareDisease

On Oct. 26 @bcmgenetics the Undiagnosed Diseases Network Foundation held an in-person community event at the @thehealthmuseum. The event featured talks by Dr. Brendan Lee, Michelle Herndon, the UDNF Program Director, Jill Rosenfeld of the Baylor UDC, @HTChaoLab, & more.
Dr. H. Zoghbi invested as member of the American Academy of Sciences and Letters. @bcmhouston @bcmgenetics @TCHResearchNews @TexasChildrens bcm.edu/news/dr-zoghbi…
To my colleagues and friends in Harris County - vote this weekend any location. No line, free parking at TMC. There are 73 items (due to judges). November 5 will be a mess!! Until 7pm today or Sunday noon -7
Study (N=200 courses) tested 3 interventions to reduce gender bias in student evals, but none were effective. "Women who were tough graders or taught large classes received more criticism than men with the same grading style or class size." @kimelsesser forbes.com/sites/kimelses…
The problem is not people being uneducated. The problem is that people are educated just enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything from what they have been taught.
✏️Mark your calendars for Sat. Oct. 26 @bcmgenetics & the Undiagnosed Diseases Network Foundation are inviting you to a free in person community event at the Health Museum in Houston, TX, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Register at bit.ly/3NbAEgQ @UDNconnect #undiagnosed #RareDisease
GenX here - been there, doing that 👇👇 and loving every minute of it! Love being part of the wild career ride 🎢 that is gene discovery 🧬 to precision therapy 🎯 !
it must be truly wild to be a boomer in biology like going from using genetic linkage to map genes to being able to do single cell full transcriptome sequencing across millions of cells in the span of a career is crazyyyyyy
Less than 1 week away!!!! #childneurology #NMatch2025 #pedsneuro #NDD
It is imperative in science to doubt; it is absolutely necessary, for progress in science, to have uncertainty as a fundamental part of your inner nature.
STXBP1 is hiring an Executive Director! Help us expand and scale our work so we can achieve our mission to accelerate #STXBP1 research, and activate and support our community. stxbp1disorders.org/careers
NINDS is excited to announce the appointment of pediatric neurologist Annapurna Poduri, MD, MPH as Deputy Director. Dr. Poduri is a leader in the field of epilepsy genetics and her work has led to the discovery of several genes associated with epilepsy. go.nih.gov/l9AllrS

Great career award for physician-scientists! Grateful to receive the award in 2018 to launch the lab and work with amazing colleagues and trainees. Highly recommend physician-scientists transitioning to independent tenure track faculty positions to apply.
Career Award for Medical Scientists is designed to bridge the gap between postdoctoral training and an independent faculty position. Perfect for researchers committed to biomedical research. #CareerAwards #MedicalResearch #bwfcams buff.ly/3PzmipK
Congratulations to @MingshanXue and his team! Kudos! 👏👏
Congratulations to Dr. Minghshan Xue @MingshanXue on receiving the Impact Award from the STXBP1 Foundation. This award highlights innovative research that the Xue lab has done on this disorder. bit.ly/3WUxl20
Dogs are humanity's best friend—but how long has it been that way? 🐕 This Science study investigated ancient dog genomes, revealing a complicated genetic legacy that reflects a long, shared history with humans. Learn more on #InternationalDogDay: scim.ag/88W
