Fantastic tool, thank you! I submitted to q.e.d. a grant proposal, and, notwithstanding the impressive insights and display of knowledge, it’s clear the system still cannot grasp the different requirements between articles and project proposals. It would be extremely useful to add this capability.
This one is a bit of a departure from the usual and definitely a work in progress!
We found that by using ab initio reconstruction at very high res, in very small steps, we could crack some small structures that had eluded us - e.g. 39kDa iPKAc (EMPIAR-10252), below.

RFK Jr. is upset that a recent large Danish study in Annals of Internal Medicine, conducted over 20 yrs in 1 M kids, found no association between aluminum in childhood vaccines & 50 different health conditions.
His request for the retraction was rejected.

We are looking to recruit a tenure track group leader in the field of Chemical/Synthetic Biology (in the broadest sense) to lead a research program within the Division of Protein & Nucleic Acid Chemistry ( www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DNW809/r... ) at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB).
And of course, it was fantastic as always to listen to Richard Henderson and Nigel Unwin
Awesome lineup for the “Structure of Bacteriorhodopsin: 50 Years On” symposium @mrclmb.bsky.social : Niko Grigorieff, John Rubinstein, Gebhard Schertler, Bridget Carragher, and many more.
I got hit by some rather sudden and extreme financial hardship so if anyone is in need of remote wetlab contract research, strictly BSL1, do let me know. Currently scrambling for gigs.

Good suggestion! Keep them coming!!
Call me old fashioned (please don’t 😊) but I still value good textbooks particularly for teaching at entry level. A good amount of integration is almost always needed on a yearly basis anyway.
Hey, I’m looking for a bachelor level textbook on Synthetic Biology (ok for students with basic molecular biology knowledge): any suggestions please?? Perhaps @atinygreencell.bsky.social ?
A Florida weatherman telling his viewers he can no longer be confident in his forecasts due to cuts to atmospheric science is the kind of resistance content I’m here for.
Kudos, Sir.🌦️

I centri per migranti in Albania, costati 933 milioni di €, a detta del Premier Rama, non possono funzionare.

David Liu @harvard.edu beautifully articulates the criticality of basic science funding for developing revolutionary therapeutics like life-saving base editors 👏

Molto ben scritto! Diffondete anche e soprattutto fuori di questa bolla.
Thank you Guido for a great seminar #UniPV #DBB_unipv ! I am glad that your are gonna be in the neighbourhood😊
Friends, if anyone is looking for an electron microscopist outside of the US, I'm listening. Open to any country, regardless of weather. Can do cryo, room temp, image anything from tissues to nanoparticles, viruses, catalysts, etc. Thanks for any lead(s).
Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:
—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.
Read it.

I wished Columbia had done the right thing, too.
Highly recommended PhD opportunity!
