Next up at #OpenScienceWeek2024 is @bwmol, who will talk about scientific integrity concerns. There are many things that can go wrong in scientific publishing. Clinical trials usually follows certain guidelines - comparing standard treatments to an experimental treatment.

And since it's #FluorescenceFriday we'd love to share a beautiful image of iPSC-derived astrocytes featured in our new preprint (Green = GFAP, Red = S100B, Blue = DAPI)! Image credit: talented PhD student @alexlish47 😎

It's been 6 years that we developed our iAs protocol @AhleniusHenrik and it is really rewarding to see it being used in such an amazing work!

Come to Lund! Chris is great!
Replying to @ch_douse
Finally, we are hiring! If you are interested in the repetitive genome/ transposons/ epigenetics/ chromatin/ brain development and fancy living in Scandinavia, get in touch! We are a friendly bunch and Lund even has a transposon-themed running club open for new members. [7/7]
