Thanksgiving update:
Turkey’s brined.
Pie’s baked.
Pickle slice just hit metaphase.

Breaks from cutting edge science? Never heard of ’em.

Happy Thanksgiving y’all

‪Someone fixed my “Dorian Gray” avatar lol #sharpie

Why does my AVATAR outside the lab have MORE GREY HAIR than real-life me? 😳

Is it:
✅ The avatar actually wrote ALL th3 grants?
✅ It’s aging in DOG YEARS from reviewer feedback?
✅ Or is it secretly running experiments at 3 AM?
What’s your theory?👇

ZOINKS! 🐕💨
The lab just unmasked the real ghost haunting our data... it was LIAM all along! 👻🔬

‪🤯 Wait, BRD4 just got “dragged” into nucleoli by JQ1-HTL in under an hour?! This is one of the most crazy aspects of this paper…..condensate sorcery. Mind blown. 🔥‬

When chemistry meets neurons! Game-changing paper on multifunctional fluorescent ligands. Luke and Pratik built the nerdy toys; we got to play! Jason Vevea nailed biotin-HTL for mito magic. My lab rocked the JQ1 HTL to shuffle chromatin in mins. 1st collab win for our Neuronal Cell Biology Division.

Kirby Campbell just dropped a mind-blowing presentation at #KIDS25! Using cutting-edge FIB-SEM & super-resolution datasets, he’s unveiled how neurons condense chromatin. AI + data science reveal new “flavors” of heterochromatin. Shoutout to the Abbas Shirinifard and NIAL #microscopymonday

The lab’s latest flex: a live-cell imaging probe catching Ser2-phosphorylated RNA Pol II CTD in real time Watch transcriptional elongation light up living nuclei!
What’s the coolest thing you’ve seen under a microscope?

18 YEARS AGO, I kicked off a wild chase after the brain's biggest secrets, like it owed its blueprint to how it builds itself from scratch 🧠 Me + my fearless lab family turned curiosity into a powerhouse, probing frontiers. Shoutout to the St. Jude's vibe fueling breakthroughs over copycat science.

🚨 Mind-blowing Brain Club alert! Liam Hallada just dropped a 🔥 stellar talk that hits pause on your brain mid-thought. He transformed heavy tech lifts into pure gold: revolutionary new imaging pipelines, bold fresh questions, and razor-sharp methods to decode how neurons wire up

Field notes from a weekend PI at the #microscope: vesicle cargo lanes lighting up in real time like @FedEx. This is the ML1N PX domain in a fibroblast. Hot damn, there’s mind-blowing action under the surface of cells: this video shows 2 min of time 🤯 #Cellbio #MicroscopyMonday #SciArt #SciComm

Hey Keri, some nuclei wear their emotions on their chromatin 🤭 I’m sure this is not in any epigenetic text books. Ironically, I captured this on a Lattice Light Sheet microscope a few years back which protects cell from phototoxicity.

Multidisciplinary minds around one table at Solecki lab meeting. We channeled David Epstein’s Range to rethink a workhorse lab technique. Thinking loud, gesturing louder (classic me🙌). Ideas stretch far with a broad skilled team #LabLife #ScienceTribe #Science #Collaboration #scientists

My favorite hike on Madeira: Pico do Areeiro.
It’s the top shelf of the world: where grandma hid the cookies and all those mountain blooms.
Clouds fall beneath you. Colors riot. Time goes quiet.

Landed in Funchal. Molly and I drifted down Avenida do Mar: stone, sea, sunlight, silence. Sometimes a walk with your daughter is the only compass you need. #Funchal #Madeira #AvenidaDoMar #FatherDaughter #WanderWithWonder #MemoryInMotion

My favorite chocolate in #lisboa: Chocolateria Ecquador. Truffles infused with orange or raspberry 😋. The wine may be cracked open soon 😉
