I'm excited to share our findings on a metal-dependent specificity switch for #CRISPR-Cas12a! We profiled the specificity of Cas12a at four Mg2+ concentrations and observed striking differences in mismatch tolerance at lower, physiological conditions 1/n

undergraduate students from @bbmbisu that participated in the sunset research program presenting their research as 3 min thesis presentations. Amazing to see how well they can synthesize the big picture and specific work in this short time.

Great to be with Bob and Diane Stupka. Adopted Iowa Staters who support the Roy J. Carver department of @bbmbisu with their presence, encouragement and philanthropy. We remember their son Rob and his vision for what has become the annual Stupka Symposium.#philanthropy #IowaState

Well done to all the students who organized the 16th annual STUPKA Undergraduate Research Symposium that is underway today! Students spent the day sharing their research projects and hearing from professionals.

The students have done an amazing job organizing the Stupka Symposium! Looking forward to the poster session and student talks. Incredible that it's all run by undergrads 🤯
The Stupka Symposium has begun! We are excited to have @ehaswell and @McLellan_Lab visiting, along with several current, past, and future @bbmbisu undergrads!

#ISUCALS scientists Dior Kelley and Olga Zabotina are exploring unanswered questions about how hormones regulate cell wall properties as plants develop, thanks to a new @NSF grant. In the process, they plan to engage college students and preschoolers: go.iastate.edu/XAYBAN

"Strike up the band!" will have new meaning once Jacob Schmieder ('21 biochemistry) launches Varsity Instrument Lights—the innovative idea he developed over the summer in @IowaStateU CYstarters program!

wishing good retirement to Desi Gunning. Nobody has done more for the students in our department for the last 3? decades, and for me in particular since I joined ISU. We will miss her!

A new study from an ISU scientist details the structure of a critical enzyme in the coronavirus that removes antiviral medications from virus RNA, rendering many treatments ineffective. Inhibiting the enzyme could lead to better treatments for COVID-19.
