Promega North America

This year, we recognized a group of incredible North America-based scientists as Wizard in My Lab recipients. Adam Schuller and Savannah Rocha-Wrigley, PhD, from the Ronald B. Tjalkens, PhD Lab at Colorado State University, were selected as the grand winners! The Tjalkens Lab studies neuroinflammation and the role of glial cells in neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s. Research focuses on the molecular regulation of immune responses in glial cells, the impact of environmental neurotoxins, and how neurotropic viral infections contribute to inflammation and protein aggregation. Recipients also included Ryan Brown from the Vander Griend Lab at University of Illinois Chicago, and Dickson A. from the Neuropsychopharmacology Lab at Howard University College of Medicine. More than just brilliant researchers, they’re mentors who turn challenges into breakthroughs, make tough protocols second nature, and inspire those around them. Whether troubleshooting experiments or sparking curiosity, they create spaces where science, and scientists, can thrive. Join us in celebrating these Lab Wizards!

Congratulations to The Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) scientists on this work demonstrating how the NanoBRET® Target Engagement System can be miniaturized and automated. By streamlining the workflow for kinase selectivity screening in live cells, this approach can make cellular kinase profiling more accessible. This could be a game changer for researchers tackling complex kinase biology questions. https://lnkd.in/g_navfNw
