    I rarely post personal stuff here but this one is special. This chap came to say hi on the line up yesterday. I’m the one with the shorter board. Beautiful not-so-juvenile great white, close to 10ft

    😂😂 My lab dressed as me, in my office. Including Spiderman meme and a very accurate bar graph....

    People often ask me what is it like to be an Associate Professor at Scripps? @ardemp
    People often ask me what it is like to be a @NobelPrize laureate? @LippiLab @Alex_Chesler

    Very proud of this grant with my good friend @yeo_lab! Great effort from @fedezampa @SammiSison @EricKofman @bRaNnAn_LAB @pratibhajagann_. Now the fun begins!
    Scripps Research is awarded a landmark $2.3 million grant from the NIH’s BRAIN Initiative. Prof. Giordano Lippi and collaborators will advance a system to map the brain’s “translatome” – the full collection of mRNAs – to better understand disease scripps.edu/news-and-event… @LippiLab

    First paper entirely conceived in the Lippi lab! Please read the tweetorial from the fantastic soon-to-be Dr. Zolboot ⬇️.
    Love microRNAs but feel like the field has been a bit stagnant? Then do we have the preprint for you! The mammalian brain is a prominent site for miRNA function, but cell type- or developmental stage-specific functions are largely understudied due to technical limitations. 🧵

    Chuffed to join the @czi awesome scientific network with my good friend @euforna! Can't wait to meet everyone in July, a lot of RNA black belts including @lucksmith and @SchrattL . Worth waiting a week for the announcement, so that I can share the limelight with @_chrisgparker_
    Congrats to @_chrisgparker_ and @LippiLab for their @ChanZuckerberg (CZI) awards in aging and #Alzheimers research. Parker's work in RNA metabolic networks and Lippi's research on non-coding RNA in neurodegeneration contribute significantly to the field. ow.ly/2hhL50QJt2q

    Delighted to see our microRNA-218 (miR-218) paper published in @eLife today. This project started in my mentor's (Darwin Berg, UCSD) lab led by postdoc extraordinaire Seth Taylor, now faculty at Brigham Young University. doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… Tweetorial ⬇️

    Nope. This is me normally.

    Hail the Whitehall Foundation Twins! No better way of celebrating 1 year lab-niversary that being awarded a grant. And the fact that @liye_yeti got one too makes it even sweeter! @scrippsresearch

    Terrific Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience GRC conference! Icing on the cake is that @fedezampa won a best poster award. And got many PIs to sign their figures on the latest Liqun Luo’s textbook (the award) #NeuroGRC2022

    Delighted to receive support from the Bacharach Family Foundation!
    Five Scripps Research professors, including @nani_grotjahn, @RaphaelPark7, @LippiLab, Joseph Jardine and @_ShannonMMiller, have received funding from the Bachrach Family Foundation to advance research on TB, autoimmune diseases, and gene therapies. More: ow.ly/8rq050TjnyB
