Piskounova Lab
@piskounova_lab
Assistant professor at the Meyer Cancer Center at Weill Cornell Medicine. Interested in molecular plasticity of metastasis
Standing up for Science! @tarumurmur @DibbleLab @lab_manning Alex Toker Lab

Collaborative work of @slavicaPD, @Hashemyaser4, Jovanovic Lab and @DjuranovicLab - a new method to isolate ribosomes and translational material in minutes. We show multiple usage of our RAPPL method in biochemical and structural assays with ribosomes. Please be free to contact…
6 years of work + Over 2 years in review + 1 extremely talented graduate student @LeonaNease + Amazing collaborators = One extremely cool new mechanism that regulates metastasis through modification of the selenocysteine tRNA! nature.com/articles/s4301…
Postdoc position available in my lab! If you want to study how mRNA regulates the activity of proteins with IDRs, please contact me. mskcc.org/research/ski/l…
Very happy to see our first paper out! We characterize transcriptional isoforms of NAD+ kinase (NADK) and their role in oxidative stress and melanoma metastasis. Huge congratulations to Graciela @MGracielaCascio for all the hard work! doi.org/10.1016/j.redo…
Piskounova Lab is moving! Excited to announce that I will be moving to Boston to join the BIDMC Cancer Center @BIDMC_CancerCtr this fall! Looking forward to the next chapter!
What a fantastic meeting: Cell Signaling in Cancer! #CSCSRC @FASEBorg Thanks to all participants, to the great speakers and to my co-organizers @TheLeeLab @piskounova_lab and Jorrit Enserink @Oslounivsykehus 👏👏
Lucky number 7! Happy lab anniversary! Stay tuned for some exciting news coming soon!

Calling on early stage investigators with interests in #RedoxBiology & #RNAtranslation. Will you attend #SfRBMSFRRI2023? There is an opportunity for early stage researchers to present in plenary session “RNA translation & RedoxBiology”. To be considered submit abstract by Aug15!
Do you want your research showcased at SfRBM-SFRRI 2023?! Submissions for oral presentations & poster abstracts are due August 15th! Abstracts will be published in the conference's program & #FreeRadicalBiologyandMedicine journal. Learn more: conta.cc/3WudyWp
Do you like development, regeneration, cancer? If so, come join us for a postdoc @Oxford. A love of #zebrafish helps, but we also like human #iPS cells. You can come and work on pretty much whatever you find interesting. Send me a message if interested.
Check out this very cool work on epigenetic memory and pancreatic cancer from the (unfortunately 🙄) twitterless Rohit Chandwani Lab! biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
What can be scarier than a 6-well plate with these cell culture disasters! Happy Halloween! 🎃(Bragging rights for anyone who guesses all six correctly 😉)

Congratulations, @LeonaNease on your first official conference talk at PASPCR! Such an awesome job! 🎉


We are recruiting postdoctoral fellows who want to work on the metabolism of hematopoietic stem cells/myelopoiesis/thymopoiesis. Directions include fundamental metabolic questions or role of metabolism in leukemia development or infection.
Russia's vaccine is in use in nearly 70 nations, but its adoption has been slowed by controversies and questions over rare side effects, and it has yet to garner World Health Organization approval. nature.com/articles/d4158…
Food for thought? 🤔
So @CaitlinPacific took a Twitter hiatus, and … well, I can’t possibly summarize this, so I’m just going to let her tell it: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
