Coupling dCas13 with compartment-specific signals or motor proteins enables programmable control of endogenous mRNA localization and reveals spatial transcriptome functions in neurons. nature.com/articles/s4158… #NBThighlight
Check out a research highlight in @NatureBiotech about our work on CRISPR-TO led by @MengtingHan123 published in @Nature ! @Stanford_ChEMH @bioe_stanford nature.com/articles/s4158…
Rising Star Alert🌟: Heloise, one of our outstanding undergrad researchers, just presented her work at the FSHD International Research Congress in Amsterdam — an international meeting on muscular dystrophy research with 300+ attendees. 🧬💪

Congratulations to Lorenzo @LorenzoMagni18 for being awarded the 2025 Bio-X graduate fellowship! @StanfordBioX @Stanford_ChEMH @bioe_stanford biox.stanford.edu/highlight/anno…

Huge congrats to Mengting Han on starting her lab as a tenure-track Assistant Professor at Indiana University Bloomington! 🎉 She led the development of CRISPR-TO in our lab for precise RNA localization in neurons. Excited to see the groundbreaking work from the Han lab to come!

RNA is the next frontier in treating neurological diseases. Our journey into the spatial transcriptome using CRISPR-TO to perturb RNA localization is the beginning to reveal how RNA organization shapes brain function and disease. Read the @Stanford story: news.stanford.edu/stories/2025/0…
Thanks Peking University for reporting our work of imaging DNA communication using Oligo-LiveFISH. @PKU1898 @Stanford @bioe_stanford @Stanford_ChEMH @PKU_CCME @stanleyqilab @CellCellPress #stanford #PekingUniversity
#PekingUniversity alumnus Zhu Yanyu co-developed Oligo-LiveFISH in #Cell, capturing #DNA’s real-time “whispers” in living cells. “It felt like glimpsing stardust within the universe’s fabric,” he shares, unveiling a tool to decode genomic dialogues across time and space with…
