We had a lab outing today at Illusion Museum, followed by lunch at a Filipino restaurant and ice cream 🍨🍦

Thanks to the team for the enthusiasm and hard work for science

Can not studying popular genes cost you your career?!
Check out how the probability of a junior scientist to transition to a principal investigator is lower if the genes they research are less studied. The overall decreasing probability is also really depressing! (from Fig. S10)

We still had so many un-opened boxes. Olivia tackled remaining boxes today and the lab looks like a store house!

Olivia is super-busy in analyzing the pattern from thousands of nucleus! She submitted abstracts to 2 conferences for this summer.

I took her data, wrote another grant, and ready to submit today.

I had a wonderful time teaching Cell Biology every Monday morning this semester. So fortunate to have a group of enthusiastic students in the course.

They presented a series of recent Nature Cell Biology Nature Cell Biology articles.

Our new review paper on the interactions between Rop signalling and plant hormones is now available in ⁦JXB⁩. Rop can apparently do more than we think. Its connection with hormones is one of the exciting fields. track.smtpsendmail.com/9032119/c?p=J-…

We highlighted this paper recently:
