We recently learned that our beloved movie theater @AMCTheatres Kips Bay is closing due to acquisition of the building by @nyulangone. This is devastating for NYU Langone employees like me. My colleagues and I ask AMC and NYU to reconsider. See attached.

The Trump administration's efforts to slash research funding have US graduate students, postdocs and other early-career scientists fearing for their careers. Some are considering changing jobs or leaving the country. Others say them might abandon research altogether.

Take a look at this recently published study in LSA: A large-scale cancer-specific protein–DNA interaction network @fuxmanlab @annaabananabell @yunwei_lu @BU_Tweets

Check out our latest pub where we expand the cancer gene regulatory network as a resource for the cancer genetics community! 🧬
This study delineates a large-scale cancer gene TF-DNA interaction network, highlighting potential oncogene-targeted therapeutics and complex TF roles in gene regulation. @fuxmanlab @annaabananabell @yunwei_lu @BU_Tweets

Incredibly excited to share that next month I’ll be starting my postdoc in the lab of @JefBoeke at the NYU Langone Health Institute for Systems Genetics! 🧬🗽 I can’t wait to join this brilliant group. The pup is doing a great job adjusting to city life so far!

Fuxman Bass Lab at it again 💪🏻
Excited to share our review examining viral cis-regulatory elements as sensors of cellular states out now in @TrendsGenetics! sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Every once in a while, we’re lucky enough to have a mentor who changes our lives for the better, and that’s what I’ve had in grad school. Infinitely grateful to have @fuxmanlab as a mentor, colleague, and friend.
Congrats @annaabananabell for a wonderful thesis defense! I can’t be any more proud of you and looking forward to what you’ll accomplish on your next chapter!

It turns out that most “alternative” transcription factor isoforms really are alternative!
It was an honor to contribute to this story and work with amazing postdocs @LukeLambs and @kaia_mattioli.
excited to share the first story from my postdoc today!! we profiled hundreds of transcription factor (TF) isoforms & found that two-thirds of alternative TF isos differ from their cognate reference iso in at least 1 key molecular activity

The first “Berenson et al.” is out in Nature Communications! Super proud of this work and thankful to all involved. 👩🏼🔬🧬
We are very excited to see our paper published in @NatureComms led by the amazing Anna Berenson (@annaabananabell)! We introduce paired yeast one-hybrid (pY1H) assays to study cooperativity and antagonism between transcription factors (TFs). nature.com/articles/s41467-0… 1/6
The lab had a great time at the #FestivalOfGenomics last week! Thanks to @manoliskellis for coming to say hi and for an exceptional talk. Feeling inspired as I look ahead to a postdoc and starting my own lab some day. 🧬

Exciting news from the lab!!! Congrats to Elvis Morara for obtaining and NSF postbac fellowship and Jordyn Choe and @PurintonJake for obtaining UROP awards!
Conference prep checklist!
✅ No idea what clothes to pack
✅ Poster printing disaster
✅ Traveling alone
✅ Social anxiety
✅ Trying to remember why I’m doing this
