Zara Weinberg passed away earlier this week. She joined my lab earlier this year when her postdoc lab formally closed.
She was a brilliant scientist, supportive mentor, dear friend, avid music fan, rabid believer in public transit, open science champion, and above all just an amazing human.

Finally out!
I’m thrilled to share our new paper (Wolin et al., Cell 2025).
This paper describes SPIDR, a high-throughput method for mapping RBP binding sites.
By combining #SPIDR with #cryoEM, we identified the exact binding site of LARP1 within the #mRNA channel of the 40S ribosomal subunit.

Hey that protein looks familiar! 🦋
Speak up to prevent a major loss for the field. CASP, which helped shaping structural biology including AlphaFold is on the verge of shutting down. NIH funding has lapsed, UC Davis support ends and the core team is being let go. Painfully shortsighted.
Exclusive: Famed protein structure competition nears end as NIH grant money runs out
Agency silent on funding renewal for contest that inspired creation of AIs that predicted how proteins would fold

I'm excited to share our latest story from the
@lydiafinley.bsky.social lab, where we show that it's not just whether cells take up nutrients that matters, but how and where those metabolites are used. Out now in @naturemetabolism.bsky.social: rdcu.be/ejFTs 1/

Great news, great opportunity for students and postdocs!!
After many years at @mrclmb.bsky.social, I've moved back home to start my own lab at @princetonmolbio.bsky.social. I'm so thankful to my mentors, especially Kelly Nguyen and Don Rio! We have some exciting results on LINE-1 in the works and are recruiting. Find out more: ghanim.lab.princeton.edu

First post on bluesky gotta be the structure of mTORC1 on membrane! A great collaboration and interesting frontier for SPA cryoEM!
Proud of new work tinyurl.com/yhz4c6ry from the lab by Zhicheng (Chen) Cui using single-particle cryo-EM on liposomes to show how mTORC1 integrates nutrient and growth factor signaling at lysosomes, collab. w/
G. Napolitano,A. Esposito, and A. Ballabio.
