Every Australian molecule of apoferritin trembling in their boots this morning
Next Monday we will launch the @thermofisher Titan Krios G4 at @CryoEM_Monash with @EMBLAustralia. Its unparalleled resolution and advanced capabilities will enhance biomedical research, e.g. at @MonashBDI. Open to all Australian researchers.

We really need more basic science like this -- so cool!
Does the uterus have a pacemaker? Where do uterine contractions originate? We took a look!

Probably the best post-grad research tech job in the world. Ben and the team are incredible and everyone should be applying! 😁
We are hiring to fill Research Tech positions. Ideal candidates are graduating seniors looking to gain 2+ years of immersive research experience related to the development and application of genome editing tech. Details can be found on our lab website: kleinstiverlab.org/open-posi…

If you didn’t believe me when I said that the loss of ERAS revenue is an existential threat for the AAMC, take a look at this ‘not for circulation’ e-mail they sent to medical school deans, urging them to keep program directors from switching to another application system.

ALT Screenshot of an e-mail from Dr. Alison Whelan to her Council of Deans colleagues, warning against ‘fragmentation’ of the residency application market, and noting attachments including discussion questions with ERAS talking points and a template e-mail.
Years after the preprint came out, I’m still so awestruck by not only the results but the science we can do to get there. What a time to be alive!
How did we lose our tail? A simple question.. but it wasn't really asked before! We discovered a plausible scenario for the genetic mechanism that led to tail loss. Amazing that such a big change may have been caused by such a small genetic event. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… @BoXia7

Oh you’re going to a teaching hospital in July? Well get ready…
for the most compassionate care from extremely empathetic interns along with their vigilant supervising attendings. Hope you like open ended questions and doctors listening to you bc you’re gonna drown in it.
Can’t think of anyone more deserving. Keith is an incredible scientist and mentor, I and many others would be nowhere without him ❤️
Thank you, @ASGCTherapy. I am incredibly honored to receive this award, which recognizes the work of so many talented @JoungLab members and other collaborators I've had the privilege to work with over the past nearly 20 years.
Incredible lab and delightful lab environment. Would highly recommend applying 🤩

My hot take is that most of us have not adequately processed the trauma of the pandemic. And our sprawling, unprocessed trauma chews away at our brains in myriad ways that make us anxious about why we can’t seem to live our lives as instinctively or as joyously as we did in 2019.
Such a cool thread. I grew up with this song but never realized it was an epic medley!

Now published in Research Policy:
I looked at 27k postdoc salaries across the US, their relationship to cost of living, tenure-track job prospects, and how things have been changing over time. Here's what I found:

I am furious that there are PIs that put on a good face about diversity but bring BIPOC people into dysfunctional environments that cause them harm. I am starting a list of research labs I will never send BIPOC (or any) trainees.
