Thank you, Kevin! Please do.

Peroxiredoxin 1 safeguards the nucleolar genome from oxidative damage Peroxiredoxin 1 (PRDX1) is a highly conserved, thiol-dependent peroxidase that rapidly scavenges reactive oxygen species to modulate redox signaling. PRDX1-null mice exhibited genomic instability, sho...

This is great news! Congratulations!

Joyeux Anniversaire!

To all the charlatans bragging about curing cancer in 5 years with AI: you have no idea what you’re taking about.

I was hoping that my first bsky post would be more cheerful. I recently joined NIH (NIEHS) as a PO. I fought hard for this position and was so excited to support health science from a new vantage point… I picked up my life and moved to NC. Unfortunately, my time at NIEHS was short lived.

TIRING!

Merci d’avoir partagé!

Happy Black History Month!

Je pense que c’est sous-estimer l’histoire de ce pays, particulièrement les luttes des années 60. Attendons de voir la suite. Vous avez peut-être raison. L’histoire nous le dira.

Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them — “they’re studying the spit of lizards?!” — remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic.

Thank you, dear Antonio! We cannot exclude the possibility of Prx2 phenocopying Prx1. Our models have low to undetectable Prx2. Given their structural and localization similarities (i.e., nuclear), I would not exclude this possibility. More to come…

Thank you, Barak!

Leveraging metabolism-focused CRISPR screen, we established a gene dependency map between DNA damage response and metabolism.
We identified peroxiredoxin 1 as a key driver of resistance to ATM inhibition.

Please keep the hope alive.

Please don’t. I know I am too optimistic, but think about our journey as a pendulum.
