Coincidence that 'Muscle Bucky' was outside my hotel while attending a Mechanisms of Muscle Growth and Development meeting in Madison? Probably fate:)
Much thanks for NIAMS for supporting a new research direction in our lab! niams.nih.gov/newsroom/annou…
The Geisbrecht Lab migration. With bittersweet memories of Burt Hall, we rounded up our experiments and moved across the street to make new attachments with colleagues and students in Chalmers Hall. Can't wait to get back to research!

Congrats to JCRC faculty members Brian Geisbrecht @BvgLab in biochemistry & molecular biophysics and Roman Ganta in diagnostic med & pathobiol on earning K-State's highest faculty title of University Distinguished Professor! Read story: k-state.edu/media/newsrele… @KSUCVM @KStateBMB
Excited my students could share their work at the Drosophila conference. The excitement upon their return to lab is contagious. Much thanks to @KStateCancerRes for travel awards.
Muscle loss is a disabling consequence of #aging and #disease, but now tobacco hawk moth pupae are teaching us about some of the key players, allowing scientists to identify a crucial regulator, Ciboulot, controlling #muscleloss journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/22…

nature loves muscles too! check out the beautiful sarcomeres floating in northern Kansas!
The Geisbrecht Lab at is seeking a motivated post-doctoral candidate to understand muscle tissue remodeling in Drosophila. Inquiries should be directed to [email protected].
There are now many tools to help connect model organism and clinical researchers. GSA President Hugo Bellen has launched a new webinar series to introduce these and other tools for exploring gene function across humans and model organisms. Sign up now! bit.ly/3wh5D06

Sometimes #Mondays are soul-sucking and other times your PhD advisor texts you with fresh screenshots that resurrect a grad project you thought might never see the light of day again. @GeisbrechtE_Lab youtube.com/watch?v=A94dmL…
I hope I am not the only scientist who secretly gives herself a high five on a Saturday morning in the microscope room after finding a new mutant in her screen. Some days science is great.
Today is bittersweet. Last lab meeting for Simran before she embarks on her postdoctoral studies...and congratulations to Addie for her graduation. Good luck in grad school!
