Feeling energized by the fantastic science at #CeDev2022 where I reconnected with many worm people and #Folate22 where I was welcomed into a new scientific community. I've really missed in person meetings.

(oops missed a day) - counting down to #CeDev2022 in four days!
👀 Look out for this poster presented by Malek Elsayyid from Jessica Tanis's lab at U. Delaware:
P75 Investigating the role of Rab GTPases in extracellular vesicle biogenesis and glial uptake
Congratulations @michaelclupper and Andy Lam for finishing your PhD/MBA dual degrees! The lab has been built with your outstanding dissertation research; I'm so proud of all of your accomplishments.
So looking forward to this in person meeting!!!
Submit an abstract by *THIS FRIDAY MAY 27* for a talk at the "C. elegans Development, Cell Biology and Gene Expression" meeting.
40 talks from ALL CAREER STAGES will be selected representing a diversity of topics, scientists, and institutions.
Submit: conferences.union.wisc.edu/c…
ALT Submit your abstract by May 27 for the C. elegans 2022 Development, Cell Biology and Gene Expression meeting, August 11-14 at the University of Wisconsin Madison. Feature speakers are Greg Hermann on "Organelle biogenesis and positioning", Jeremy Nance on "Primordial germ cell regulation", Sadie Wignall on "Meiotic cell division", Maureen Barr on "Cilia and extracellular vesicles", Shai Shaham on "Non-apoptotic cell death", and Meera Sundaram on "Apical ECM". Featured workshops are "Single molecule approaches in C. elegans" with Erin Nishimura, Dan Dickinson, and Lexy von Diezmann, and "Education & Outreach" with Teresa Lee.
So much to celebrate at the end of semester Tanis lab lunch! 2 PhD, 2 MS, and 2 undergrad senior thesis students are graduating next week. I'm so thankful to be able to work with this incredible group of people.
Incredible new paper from the @Barr_lab identifies new EV cargoes in C. elegans!

One of those mornings I got to work and sat in the car to hear the rest of Morning Edition. Next chapter: Ex-NIH head Francis Collins works to bridge the country's divides npr.org/2022/01/24/107526482…
Virtual school is humming in the background and I (probably unwisely) sent my son back to daycare today. I keep thinking, new year, same story. The anxiety, the constant disruptions, and the questioning whether I'm making the right decisions - it's all still there.
This article resonates strongly with me as a parent of two children under 5. The past two years have been extremely challenging, and I hope 2022 will bring a solution for young kids and their parents. (A thread) time.com/6130454/covid-vacci…

Check out our lab’s first preprint! @CKRourke4 discovered that there is a different requirement for TOP-2 in cohesin release during female and male meiosis in C. elegans biorxiv.org/content/early/20…
Our new preprint is out! We discovered distinct roles for individual kinesin motors in the localization of proteins to #cilia microdomains and heterogeneous #extracellularvesicles released from #celegans neurons. @michaelclupper
Kinesin-II motors differentially impact biogenesis of distinct extracellular vesicle subpopulations shed from C. elegans sensory cilia biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #bioRxiv
As a participant this past year, I can attest that this is a terrific mentorship program and excellent way to connect with others in the #celegans community

The seminal discoveries by this year’s #NobelPrize laureates in physiology or medicine have explained how heat, cold and touch can initiate signals in our nervous system. The identified ion channels are important for many physiological processes and disease conditions.
