Welcome Apoorva!
Picture of Apoorva in the lab

Welcome to Apoorva, who just joined the Adelman lab as a postdoctoral fellow! Apoorva comes to us from Germany, where he recently obtained his PhD from the University of Wuerzburg, where he worked in the lab of Elmar Wolf.

Welcome Piero!

Piero Espinel is the newest person to strengthen our team and we're so happy to have him! Piero recently graduated from Northeastern University and is joining our lab as a Research Assistant.

Great work, Chad!

Congratulations to Chad, who was just awarded an NIH F31 fellowship! This fellowship will support his investigation of the Integrator complex.

Welcome Karla!

We're happy to welcome Karla Martinez Nevarez to the lab! Karla is a graduate student in the BBS program, and previously graduated from UC Santa Cruz. In our lab, she will be studying premature termination in the context of external stimuli.

Great news!

Congratulations to postdoc Ben Martin, who was awarded a Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. Looking forward to seeing your cool project develop!

Claudia's paper on co-transcriptional splicing is out!

Co-transcriptional splicing regulates 3' end cleavage during mammalian erythropoiesis

Molecular Cell:

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.molcel.2020.12.018

Congratulations Claudia!

This important paper shows just how fast mammalian splicing can be, and demonstrates that splicing occurs without Pol II pausing near splice sites. Further, using long-read sequencing Claudia and Kirsten find that failure to splice an RNA molecule causes defects in 3' end formation. 

A wonderful collaboration with Karla Neugebauer's lab!

Congratulations Jessica!

Jessica Bruzzone was awarded an EMBO Postdoctoral Fellowship! Congrats Jessica on your super exciting project and award!

Welcome Jessica!

Welcome Jessica, our newest lab member! Jessica is a postdoc who previously obtained her PhD from the University of Geneva, in the lab of David Shore.
