Excited to share our new preprint! 🎉
Using base-editor screens, we reveal how individual residues within the intrinsically disordered region of YTHDF2 control protein interactions, condensate recruitment, and m⁶A-dependent mRNA decay.

🧬🧪🔬Why are enhancers transcribed? How does it impact gene regulation? I’m excited to share our new paper in @ScienceMagazine showing that ncRNAs control the timing of gene activation in embryos. w/Mike Levine #ScienceResearch #RNA
A few highlights 🧵👇

Welcome aboard- we are so lucky to have you!
I'm thrilled to share that I'll join Columbia University in Jan 2027 as an Assistant Professor in @ColumbiaGenDev & @CSCIColumbia ! A long-held dream; I'm grateful for my mentors and colleagues.
We'll study microbiota-ENS interactions & we’re hiring!

Our back to back paper @NatureNeuro is out today (rdcu.be/fzGg0). We developed a method to visualize ribosomes bound to endogenous mRNAs with near codon resolution and made some really counterintuitive cell biological discoveries which have cool implications for AD🧵

Researchers at @ColumbiaMed led by @CicciaAlberto have identified a potential new therapeutic target for some of the most aggressive tumors. The study found ALT-positive tumors depend on the protein SMARCAL1 to survive, opening the door to new treatments. cancer.columbia.edu/news/mea…
