The latest on exopher biology! The glia-like epidermal cell influences rates of neuronal expulsion. doi.org/10.7554/eLife.82227 @eLife

Large vesicle extrusions from C. elegans neurons are consumed and stimulated by glial-like phagoc...

Giant neuron derived vesicles called exophers are processed by phagocytosis in neighboring skin cells, and the phagocytic interaction promotes exopher production.

Mutagenesis and structural modeling implicate RME-8 IWN domains as conformational control points

After endocytosis, transmembrane cargo is differentially sorted into degradative or recycling pathways. This process is facilitated by recruitment into physically distinct degradative or recycling...

I just won a T32 postdoc fellowship to study tunneling nanotubes in a worm model and I am absolutely giddy at the opportunity to investigate something so bizarre, TNTs!

Proud parenting moment. Today at school, Franklin filled his mask with cheese-its, so it was snack time all the time. He's basically a genius. I think the teachers were impressed.

Franklin changed his name to Cup. Tom let it slip that he always wanted to be called Zachary, and now the kids won't call him Dad because "he looks like a Zachary". Me (making an acknowledgement slide):...let's see if I can find a picture where everyone's clothed.

Someone asked about example micro-affirmations during the #2020SDB strategies to confront bias session. I remember nearly every faculty member who: - Complemented one of my talks, posters, or lab meetings - Told me I had a future in science - Nominated me for an award 1/2

Warning - Long tweet thread coming. I'm summing up the Harvard v. DHS complaint challenging ICE in its attempt to force F-1 students to leave the US if their courses are being offered online this fall. They lawyers did a superb job. I think you'll find this interesting.
