Professor. Science and social about my lab at Johns Hopkins University working on PARP and RNA biology. Views are my own.
A whirlwind few days in Cancún for the 2nd Spatial Genome Conference

Great science, great people — and a reminder why we do this.

After 20 yrs in nuclear organization, ideas once “unorthodox” (like nuclear actin) are now gaining mainstream.

Science moves, so should we.

As the Chair of Innovation Translation Council, venturing beyond lab science at the Bloomberg American Health Summit 2025.
A lot to absorb — and much to reflect on about scaling public health innovation to reach millions.

Grateful to Josh Sharfstein for making it possible to attend 🙏

What a fantastic day of science at FCBIS! @friedlab.bsky.social and I had a blast co-organizing this exciting dive into the chemistry-biology interface—great conversations, amazing energy, and a standout keynote by
@edwardmarcotte.bsky.social. Thanks to all who joined us!

In the midst of funding uncertainty in D.C., our lab took a moment to see the cherry blossoms.

We’re not naive—we know the challenges.

But we believe in science, in community, and in each other.

We’re in this together.

Celebrating 14 years of science, teamwork, and resilience! To mark our lab’s anniversary, we traded pipettes for pottery—turns out shaping clay is just as therapeutic as shaping experiments. With NIH funding uncertainties, a little calm goes a long way. Grateful for this team! #LabLife

No greater joy than seeing a student who completed both her master’s and PhD in my lab at Hopkins go from being afraid of public speaking to confidently presenting her research at the NIH yesterday. Moments like these make it all worthwhile! 🎓👏

Way to go, Dr. Shang-Jung Cheng!

Post a photo of yourself from a different era (1999 - undergrad 4th year project @ Oxford working with @marstonlab.bsky.social when we were in Jeff Errington’s lab @dunnschool.bsky.social)

Yes, definitely an era before 😊

Happy Thanksgiving for those who celebrate today 🥳🎉

Amazing holiday lunch with the @JohnsHopkinsBMB postdocs! 🎉

We discussed about work-life balance and uncovered some fantastic perks at @JohnsHopkins. Also exciting progress on crafting the ultimate onboarding checklist for our future scholars! 📚💡

Come join us 😊

Tomorrow marks a new chapter for our lab!

New talents recruited in the last couple of years will step into the limelight to present to JohnsHopkins BMB Department, unraveling the secrets of PARP biology!

As their mentor, I'm both excited and nervous 😅
