Congratulations to Chao Lu, PhD, Genetics & Development, and Mijo Simunovic, PhD, Columbia Stem Cell Initiative, who received awards from the Schaefer Research Scholars Program.
A study with genetics professor Yousin Suh, Director of the Reproductive Aging Program at CUIMC. She is co-leading this trial with Dr. Zev Williams, head of the Columbia University Fertility Center.
Here they show CPSF6 deficiency in human patients and zebrafish causes neurological, skeletal, and cardiovascular defects by altering poly(A) site choice to modulate protein levels during development.
Two CUIMC scientists, leading cancer researcher Michael Shen and exposome pioneer Gary Miller, were named fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
