Host Brian Strahl. \n\nDr. Abid Khan graduated from Visvesvaraya Technological University in India with a B.E. in Biotechnology; received his Ph.D. in Biology from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte; was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; and currently is a postdoctoral Research Associate in Brian Strahl’s lab here at . Abid’s years of research have uncovered numerous scientific breakthroughs. While working in the Strahl lab\, Abid discovered the first non-catalytic function of SETD2; uncovered a fundamental mechanism of cell biology\, wherein\, the histone methyltransferase SETD2 moonlights during mitosis and collaborates with CDK1 to regulate lamin phosphorylation\, thereby maintaining nuclear integrity and genome stability. This mechanism partly explains SETD2’s tumor suppressor role in kidney cancer; and is currently investigating the role of SETD2 in transcription elongation.

Those feelings are completely reasonable. The uncertainty about what will happen next is uncomfortable at the very least\, and it’s potentially frightening for specific people and situations. Take time to care for yourselves and others. Also please continue to seek multiple reliable information sources and interpret them carefully. \nIn the last few days\, we’ve had updates from the School of Medicine\, the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research\, and others. I’m summarizing notes below\, and  will continue to forward important new information that impacts us. We all received the new OVCR resource website today: Executive Actions and Federally Sponsored Research plus the Trump Administration Transition Resources page https://publicaffairs.unc.edu/federal/trump-administration-transition-resources/ .  I also invite everyone to 3007 GMB at 4:00 pm on Friday\, January 31st. It’s an opportunity to be together\, share questions\, get the answers that are available\, and enjoy the fact that January is over. (There will be candy.) \nDon’t hesitate to contact me with your concerns or questions at any time. I will do my best to help. Thank you for your contributions to our community\, \nWarmest regards\, \nJean \nP.S. \nIf you are contacted by a news organization or journalist about interviewing you in your role as a employee or student\, please contact Phil Bridges in Health/SOM Communications. That office can coach you on what to expect if you accept the interview\, and they are experts at spotting and protecting you from potential pitfalls phil.bridges@unchealth.unc.edu \nSee also email for summary of updates.
