I am excited to share the second half of my postdoctoral work in the Yeo lab at UCSD! We found that neuronal aging leads to the accumulation of mitochondrial double-stranded RNA, which triggers the chronic stress response. 1/ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I am excited to share that I will be starting my lab @uarizona.bsky.social this summer! Our research will focus on how aging impacts neuronal resilience and RNA biology; we will be part of the Coit Center for Longevity & Neurotherapeutics. sites.arizona.edu/rhine-lab/

Excited to share the preprint of the last portion of my grad work with co-first-author Gemechu Mekonnen and my adviser Sua Myong! We show that the RNA helicase DDX6 can tune the nucleation and fluidity of FUS condensates, including ALS-linked variants. Read more here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....
