The Integrated Stress Response Suppresses PINK1-dependent Mitophagy by Preserving Mitochondrial Import Efficiency - exciting new work from @XiaoyanGuo99! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Are you interested in "skipping the postdoc" and starting your independent lab in biomedical research as a fellow? Check out the @UCSF Sandler Fellows Program! Nominations are due 1/10/2025 - more info below. fellows.ucsf.edu

For Martin Kampmann (@MartinUCSF), combatting neurodegenerative diseases is personal. "I had experienced how devastating these diseases are through my grandmother, who suffered from dementia,” he says. "My goal is to find new therapies that can intervene." ucsfh.org/44IjqzV
Tenure-track faculty search of the @Ucsf_Biochem Department is open for applications! We are looking for creative, innovative scientists asking fundamental questions in any area of biology. Join our vibrant, collaborative, and supportive community! aprecruit.ucsf.edu/JPF05702

🧠Have you ever cried when your #iPSC transgene vanished after differentiation? Yeah, we’ve cried too, and built a solution. Our PiggyBac vector keeps expression stable even after differentiation! Check out our #preprint👇 🔗 biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Supported by @cziscience
Check out our new preprint: Network-aware self-supervised learning enables high-content phenotypic screening for genetic modifiers of neuronal activity dynamics Project led by @parkergrosjean - see his "tutorial" below!
I am excited to announce the release of our BioRxiv preprint: “Network-aware self-supervised learning enables high-content phenotypic screening for genetic modifiers of neuronal activity dynamics”. 1/ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
We are excited to continue the GRC on Functional Genomics of Human Brain Development and Disease in April 2025. Please check out the great line-up of speakers. Oral presentation slots and poster presentations are still open! Deadline March 9th grc.org/functional-gen…
Our latest paper with @Molofsky_lab is out! tweetorial to follow. Group 2 innate lymphoid cells promote inhibitory synapse development and social behavior | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… @jerika_barron @ Nick Mroz
excited to share COMET! A scalable CRISPR approach we (@carwils) developed to identify multidomain proteins that modulate transcription at specific endogenous genomic loci. @arcinstitute @ucsf doi.org/10.1101/2024.1…
Congratulations Dr. @noamteyssier, on your PhD and your many achievements. Thank you for your contributions to the lab - and science at large. We’ll will miss you lots! But excited for your next adventures - @arcinstitute is lucky to have you! #kampmannlabproud



Proud to share a new preprint from Farzané Mirfakhar using super resolution microscopy to understand how FTD-causing tau mutations disrupt lysosomal transport and tau degradation biorxiv.org/content/10.110… @WUADRC @FTDcwow
CRISPR–Cas9 screens reveal regulators of ageing in neural stem cells - exciting work from @BrunetLab nature.com/articles/s4158…
Honored to be part of the first cohort of investigators funded by the Kissick Family Foundation & @MilkenInstitute Frontotemporal Dementia research program. #endFTD milkeninstitute.org/content-hub/ne…
🚨Excited to share another paper in @MolecularCell!🚨 In collab w/ @Columbia’s Marko Jonvanoic, Lena Street, & @HoustonMethodist’s Kris Brannan, we mapped RNA-aware, RBP-centric protein-protein interactions (PPIs) across the mRNA life cycle in human cells! cell.com/molecular-cell…
1 month left to apply for the tenure track faculty search @Ucsf_Biochem. Excited to hear from creative, innovative scientists asking fundamental questions in any area of biology. Please share with your network!
