A large dataset we hope is helpful for patients who may have CAPS, an #autoinflammatory condition associated with genetic variants in NLRP3. Lots of "variants of uncertain significance" now have a specific readout from our in vitro assay which can help with clinical diagnosis.

It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS or other (non-LCH) dendritic or histiocytic sarcomas cases.

Retrograde mitochondrial signaling governs the identity and maturity of metabolic tissues
Mitochondrial damage is a hallmark of metabolic diseases, including diabetes, yet the consequences of compromised mitochondria in metabolic tissues are often unclear. Here, we report that dysfunctiona...

Lactate homeostasis is maintained through regulation of glycolysis and lipolysis
Lactate elevations are a hallmark of human disease, but the mechanisms regulating lactate levels remain poorly understood. Here, Lee et al. elucidate the mechanisms of lactate homeostasis. These invol...

Crazy that I defended yesterday. My journey had its challenges—late nights, self-doubt, and balancing academics with personal life. Each obstacle taught me resilience and time management. I’m grateful to my friends, family, and mentors for their unwavering support. A big hug to all who stood by me.

The journey of academic growth is one of constant evolution, marked by milestones that test your resilience and adaptability. For many scholars, the transition from one academic environment to another—especially when seeking a postdoctoral position—is a defining moment.
