The Woo Lab is officially on BlueSky 🦋! Give us a follow @thewoolab.bsky.social ~~ and don’t worry, we won’t be abandoning this app, just expanding our horizons 🩵💙
When it comes to modulating cereblon for TPD, the future is allostery 🫡. Read more about this intersection of allosteric modulation and target protein degradation in our latest review by Vanessa 🥂, out now in @ACSCentSci! 💙 #thefutureisallostery

Kicking off August with another Woo Lab Ph.D. Defense! Congratulations to newly-minted Dr. Nicole Curnutt, protein slayer and pastry chef extraordinaire ✨🍪⛷️🩷 Three cheers to a brilliant dissertation🫡🙌🏼🥂we know you’re off to amazing places but we will miss you 🥺
Thanks to various repair and degradation pathways, protein damage motifs are no longer a ghastly jumpscare (or are they? 👀 )👻😱 Read more about them in our newest review by Abigail (@abigailkdporter) @AnnualReviews 🌟 🏝️💙

The Woo Lab was proud to hood the three PhD’s of the class of 2026! Cheers 🥂 and congratulations 🎉 to Dr. Vanessa Dippon, Dr. Alison Mody, and Dr. Hannah Lloyd! 🫶🏼
A very very warm welcome 💜 to our Cryo-EM Queen👑, friend, and collaborator Zeba (@Zebra_Cullin) as she visits us! We know that Cambridge isn’t sunny San Diego☀️ , but we hope you enjoy the science and sights of the East Coast 🤗💅🏼✨

As right as Master Yoda is, we sometimes wish we had a lightsaber when troubleshooting gets frustrating 😅
Happy May 4th! May the force be with you (and your experiments)
#StarWarsDay 💫⭐️
Biggest congratulations to the newly-minted Dr. Vanessa Dippon, the Woo Lab’s latest PhD! Your presence will be missed, but we hope you’re as proud as we are about your amazing dissertation ~ Now where’s that champagne?! 😉🩵🐱🍾🥂✨
Some exciting lights 💡 camera 🎥 and action 🎞️ happening in the Woo Lab! Hmm, what could it possibly be for? Stay tuned 😏😗All we can say is that there is exciting science to come!
Excited to share our pub in @acsbiol, a collaboration with our colleagues across the pond at @dundeeuni 🏴 ! We show how protein complexes affect the TPD when degrading targets like CK1α. Congrats Nicole and our collaborators in the Sapkota lab! 🌟🍇💙pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
A little throwback for you on this beautiful Thursday—Alison's article on her proximity-induced O-GlcNAcylation paper from last December is out now in
@NatRevMCB! 🍭🟦🌟💙#glycotime
doi.org/10.1038/s41580-026-0…
Let us take you to the land of sweets with our latest work in @CellChemBiol! Excited to share this proximity-induced target O-GlcNAc approach, where we uncover transcriptional effects of O-GlcNAc. Congrats to Alison and Dan! 🟦🍭🍬🎵❄️

Roses are red, GlcNAc is blue, sugar is sweet, and we want YOU to read our latest in @NatureComms — where we identify small-molecules that disrupt OGlcNAc homeostasis via RNA splicing. Congrats Steven (@scheng23) and all the authors! 🟦🍭❤️ nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Another Woo Lab Dr. is in: Congrats to our newest Ph.D, Dr. Alison Mody!🫡 Cheers to a wonderful Ph.D. and a sweet (pun intended) thesis talk, all the world’s alpacas are celebrating with you in spirit 🦙🩵🟦💐🎉
we hope you enjoyed this paper as much as we do! 😉😘 if you’re interested in working with an allosteric ligand, reach out to Prof. Woo 🫡 we’re more than happy to share 🙌🏼🩵✨ #thefutureisallostery #CRBN #TPD
Pour a glass of champagne AND red Bordeaux—Our newest work with @GSK and @scrippsresearch is out in @Nature, where we describe SB-405483, the first allosteric CRBN ligand which potentiates neosubstrate degradation. Congrats Vanessa and all authors! 🍷💫💐
