Happy to publish my first ever scientific paper. We argue frame shifting alternative splicing events are widespread,regulated and physiologically important. @NatureComms. Thanks to my PI @Adam_D_Norris for his guidance. Thanks to @DavidWSanders2
@UcrRNAcenter
Our latest: alternative splicing that changes the translational reading frame! Not only can it cause RNA decay, it can also generate alternatively-coded proteins or alternative protein lengths. Tons of it in 🪱 and 🧍♀️

Thrilled to share that I’ll be joining @UCLA as Professor in July 2026!
Grateful to my amazing students, postdocs, colleagues @UCR, collaborators, and mentors.
A new chapter begins, advancing #compchem, #AI to explore #RNA, #DNA, #CRISPR, and emerging directions in #Biophysics.
The UCLA Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry is excited to welcome world-renowned computational biophysicist Prof. Giulia Palermo @palermo_lab, who will join the @UCLA faculty as a Full Professor on July 1, 2026! chemistry.ucla.edu/news/welc…

Check out our review on Graph #NeuralNetworks #GNNs in #MolecularDynamics!
We show how #AI is used for #ForceFields, free-energy and analysis - including our recent attention-based GNN workflow - and how you can integrate your favorite AI in #compchem!

Excited to share our review: “Twenty-Five Years of Photobodies: Formation, Composition, and Two-Compartment Phytochrome B Signaling Logic.” We synthesize how photobodies form, what’s inside, and how PB-nucleoplasm partitioning tunes phyB signaling dynamic range. doi.org/10.1093/plphys/kiag0…

Our new paper @CellReports led by Lin and @naoto_kubota shows nonsense‑mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is essential for neuronal migration and cortical lamination during brain development. @UCR_ScienceNews @UcrRNAcenter @UCRSoM cell.com/cell-reports/fullte…
New #research from @UCRiverside shows how #RNA regulation helps #neurons migrate to the right place in the developing #brain — a key to building the cerebral cortex & understanding neurodevelopmental disorders.

In a new paper published today, we report a liver-enriched but overlooked small RNA as a key regulator of cholesterol homeostasis. This small RNA, tsRNA-Glu-CTC, could be a potential new target for treating liver disease and cardiovascular disease👇
