This is where I live! Obviously I can't vote, but I will be looking very expectantly for the results on Tuesday!

Brand new preprint from my lab, showing that TnpB, the ancestor of Cas12, acts as a gene drive in plasmids! And it turns out in conjugative plasmids that it acts as a primitive anti-self defense system, providing a potential link between its transposon effect and becoming CRISPR!

Wilkinson Lab We discover and study reverse transcriptases

The Wilkinson Lab is open for science! @mskcancercenter.bsky.social

🧬We'll be finding funky new RNA biology, mainly by looking at reverse transcriptases (i.e. the Best Enzymes In The World)🧬

annnd: I'm hiring - come join! Especially postdocs and PhD students - please get in touch (NYC is great)

I saw! I have no idea where that came from! It is not in the Spanish Wikipedia article...

Related to the game on the top left: I am from Oviedo, and was a Real Oviedo season ticket holder until I moved to the US, I have never heard of the team referred to as "Los Godos"

If you're new to Nashville, some info in a 🧵. Our tornado season here runs from tonight (when we start getting Fall cold fronts) until about June. While tonight's severe/tornado risk is pretty low, this is good practice for later. (1/6)

1/3 To those interested in microbial iron & metal transport: In 1992, the late JB Neilands (UCB), the pioneer in the study of Fe transport entrusted me with his collection of purified siderophores from a wide range of microbes—many of them unique chemical species that can no longer be reproduced

Distinct ATRX functions cooperate with 9-1-1 and CST complexes to safeguard replication and telomere integrity Mutations in the ATRX chromatin remodeller predispose to a developmental genetic disorder and cancer, but how it safeguards genome and telomere stability remains unresolved. Here, we uncover critical ...

Genomic resistance in historical clinical isolates increased in frequency and mobility after the age of antibiotics Antibiotic resistance is frequently observed shortly after the clinical introduction of an antibiotic. Whether and how frequently that resistance occurred before the introduction is harder to determin...

What was antibiotic resistance like before we ever used antibiotics? How did we change what antibiotic resistance genes looked like over 100 years?

NYT: “Spain is proving an important point: A generous immigration policy is not a threat to the nation or to a thriving economy. More than that, it is a resource for growth and renewal that Spain’s peers spurn at their cost.” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/11/o...

Hi, are you an academic biology lab in the Boston area? I am a lab manager at a local biotech and I will be getting rid of a lot consumables in the near future (as will many of my colleagues, unfortunately). If you would be interested in free consumables, please reach out to me!

Life finds a way

That's great! Congrats!

This wouldn't have been possible without the many mentors and colleagues that I have accumulated over the years, I feel so much gratitude to you all. Now, time to do the work and get some cool data!

It feels wild to post this, given the state of things, but I just got the NoA for my first NIH grant ever, a K99/R00 award from the NIEHS! I will be studying the role of bacterial error-prone DNA polymerases in mutagenesis and the evolution of antibiotic resistance.

I’m so happy to share a project very close to my ❤️ launching this September: Atlas de Científicxs Latinoamericanxs que Inspiran ✨
We’re currently collecting nominations!
This atlas spotlights researchers from LATAM who trained in the North & returned home to lead labs. Here’s why this matters 🧵👇

Una selectividad más compleja no logra bajar las desorbitadas notas de acceso a la universidad El número de solicitudes ha vuelto a crecer, aumentando la competencia, de forma que el ingreso está al alcance de pocos en muchos grados

Creo que estamos confundiendo a nuestra juventud con una oferta a todas luces excesiva de grados con nombres a cual más atractivo, cuando en realidad deberíamos apostar por grados genéricos y transversales, dejando la especialización para el máster y tesis. #biología 💪
