The lab is excited to welcome and host several summer visitors - Ashley Cohen, a Mathematics major from Duke + NITMB REU intern, Brianna Lemisch, a Biology major from UMass Amherst + CSB SynBREU intern, and Varsha Gururaj, a MS candidate here at NU ChBE! We celebrated by having a lab picnic by the lake here in Chicago and playing viking chess.

Krishna gave a (2 hour!) talk at the KITP summer workshop on “Physical principles shaping biomolecular condensates” discussing the lab’s work on RNA-mediated organization of the nucleus as well as on computational capabilities of condensates. Thanks to the organizers for the invitation to present and for organizing such an awesome meeting by the ocean in Santa Barbara. As a bonus, Ethan and Mary from the lab joined for a few days during an action-packed week of conference talks and we got a chance to walk the beach and eat pizza!

Krishna organized the first Chicago Condensate Day, attended by our lab and condensate experts and newcomers from Chicago - kindly supported by the NITMB! It was a blast - Ethan from the lab gave a “lightning” talk along with 2 other trainees - Alisha from UIC and Li Wen from UofC . We had excellent keynotes from Profs. Allan Drummond, Wilton Snead, and Jingyi Fei, and we are excited for the next one already!

The second preprint from the lab is out! This represents a fun multi-year collaboration with the amazing Snead and Gladfelter labs (kick-started during the Physiology course at MBL, Woods Hole in 2021 where Krishna finally learnt how pipettes work) and led in lab by graduate student Mary Skillicorn. This paper explores the mechanisms that underlie assembly of an important nuclear condensate called the paraspeckle!
