Meet #MSKPostdoc Jiayi Fan (@fanj1.bsky.social) in the @zhaolabski.bsky.social lab, where she works on decoding how chromosome maintenance complex Smc5/6 uses and responds to SUMO to safeguard genome integrity.
👏 Congrats Jiayi for receiving the 2025 American Cancer Society Fellowship!

#KnowAboutMyScience: What I study happens at the molecular level. While that might sound abstract or trivial, it’s deeply connected to some of the biggest questions in medicine. Basic science is often invisible, yet it forms the foundation of nearly every medical breakthrough, from understanding disease mechanisms to developing treatments. I’m proud to contribute to this essential work. #CareerAdvice: Have a brainstorming-mate! Alone, science feels like a lonely puzzle; together, it’s a breakthrough waiting to happen.  #FunFact: Outside the lab, I enjoy musicals, escape rooms, lego building, and more. These hobbies keep my mind fresh and open to new ideas, as well as enhance my attention to details and patience.  Jiayi Fan, PhD Zhao Lab National Postdoc Appreciation Week September 2025
