A man standing up in a crowded room of people sitting. He is dressed in workman's clothes and has his head raised as if speaking up when not necessarily belonging there.
We are a rich enough country to be funding 37% of all basic research proposals, not just considering "the best" 37% and then maybe only funding 12% in the end.

In these times of predatory journals hiding behind OA, this is great to see.
What is this?! 😆
POV: your grant didn’t get up, but you still have lots of tomatoes in the garden 🥲🧪🍅
Our department at Genentech is hiring. We're looking for a freshly-minted PhD (0-3 years) protein biochemist / structural biologist to join as a Sr Scientist. A rare opportunity to join our group leader job family at a more junior level than we usually hire.
Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?
Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.
And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.
US continually release new policies "that destabilise vaccine confidence globally … so in some respects, we haven’t hit the bottom of what’s coming,” says Dr Jessica Kaufman."
“My hope is that local Australian efforts [to tackle hesitancy] are significant enough”

@camilahcoelho.bsky.social just presented her amazing work on #Mpox #vaccines and #antibodies at #lorneIandI. Brilliant, enthusiastic and inspiring! She’s looking for postdocs to join her new lab in Brazil! Spread the word! 🦠🧪🫶🇧🇷
It’s always exciting (nerve-wracking?) to present a new study for the first time! #lorneIandI
After enjoying 5 days holidaying in #Lorne, I am excited for all the amazing #infection and #immunity science I’ll be hearing about at #lorneiandi @theviin.bsky.social 🧪🦠🌈
Not *everything* is out to kill you here 😂
Hello little decorator crab! Amazing #camouflage #naturesky #natsky #Lorne
The money is just sitting there...
while 30% kids with rare diseases don't see their 5th birthday
while cancer patients transition to palliative care
while neurodegenerative diseases take precious memories
while brilliant scientists run out of funding and lose their jobs
...it just seems insane
When the #Argentinian PhD student brings morning tea for lab meeting 🤤
Looking forward to this next week! (Also 5 days in Lorne with the family beforehand 😏) 🏖️
POV: you finally resubmit *that* paper that has been in revision a looooong time
Having personally worked with two of these women, I can say with certainty that WEHI is adding some truly excellent scientist to their team! 👏👏👏

Post-doctoral opportunity @uofguelph.bsky.social to lead a translational program investigating how myocardial infarction drives coupled cardiopulmonary remodeling and neurological dysfunction. If interested, email jeremys@uoguelph.ca with CV, cover letter, by by Feb 27th. Good luck all!
I’m definitely concerned about student’s ability to understand literature and concepts, with #AI “supporting” their writing.
