A very exciting day for the Krupina Lab — our Nikon W1 SoRa spinning disk super-resolution microscope is being installed right now! Can’t wait to start using it for experiments and to see what we discover with it.

A study led by Maria Spies, PhD, revealed the unexpected structure adopted by the DNA repair protein RAD52 as it binds and protects replicating DNA in dividing cells. The understanding may help researchers develop new anti-cancer drugs. bmb.medicine.uiowa.edu/news/… @IowaBiochem

Proud of Nathan Mohar, a graduate student in my lab, who was selected for the U of Iowa “Dare to Discover” campaign. Nathan is linking DNA sequence variation to phenotypic characteristics of LMNA-muscular dystrophy.

Great things happen when #uiowa women work together! Sophie G. published her project in NAR Nucleic Acids Research, and she has Dr. Spies in part to thank for her success. Sophie will follow in Maria’s steps in earning her PhD. Read @IowaBiochem's post! linkedin.com/posts/universit…

I am delighted to be joining @IowaBiochem in January 2025 as an Assistant Professor! My group (@pedley_lab) will investigate the cellular mechanisms that regulate nucleotide metabolism to understand how these processes become dysregulated to drive disease. @UIowaCancer

Not only is Iowa City home of the Hawkeyes, but in the last few years it's been named... - The best college town in the country. - One of the top places to live in the U.S. - A best city for college grads. - A safe place to retire.
