A great organizational meeting for @terryfoxresearch.bsky.social @marathonofhope.bsky.social - making major strides to deliver personalized medicine approaches across Canada 🇨🇦 As Terry Fox said “Anything is possible if you try” @jwoodgett.bsky.social

We need more Davin’s in the world 🤣

Great read 👏 I would go further to say that even those who are established in science need to better prepare for wild uncertainty.

Thank you, @beierlab.bsky.social , for your remarkable impact you will be deeply missed ❤️ The Frank Beier Graduate Opportunity Scholarship is one way your legacy of generosity and mentorship will live on. I miss you! www.giving.westernu.ca/giving/frank...

Frank was the kindest and most inspiring mentor and friend I could ever have hoped for. His wisdom, generosity, and care touched so many lives, including my own. ❤️ Frank’s legacy of support and encouragement will always guide us, and we carry forward his spirit in all we do. I’ll miss him forever!

Tom Maniatis coming in hot in @CellCellPress to spell out in no uncertain terms what cutting indirect cost rates to 15% will cost science. And a call to action: "A united front...is essential to preventing this devastating policy from taking effect." 💯 www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

In a world of chaos - it is so reassuring to surround yourself with the smart, driven, minds of the future. We need to empower our students to be loud - to stand up to the ignorant, bullies who are threatening democracy and progress. My students give me hope ❤️ (getting in one picture is a challenge

Please 2 share our #LungTumour Biobank website located at the QEII Hospital, Halifax, Nova Scotia. Biobanking is essential 4 advancing our understanding of lung tumourigenesis.Thanks 2 the people that consent to depositing their lung tumours in our biobank. novascotialungbiobank.com

When CIHR scores are pending - you put on your good luck socks! Good luck friends 🫣🙏❤️

Remembering Samira and Hamid 🖤#PS752 It is hard to believe it has been 5 years. We will never forget or forgive. But hate cannot win. Let us commit to working better together, appreciating our shared humanity,having more compassion and understanding. We owe them that ❤️

Porter lab spreading holiday cheer around @uwindsor.bsky.social including the new Dean @ Faculty of Science. Happy holidays 🎄✨🎅❤️

Porter lab elf games have begun 🎉🎄🎅

Looking forward to what this amazing group will achieve in 2025!

My long-time Research Associate bought this notebook for me … 🤣 … it is absolutely me.

Are there any science starter packs that I can get added to??? I feel like a bit of a loner on here 😢

Anyone have a more cost effective option to graph pad?

Calling all experts in molecular imaging! Please consider joining our dynamic team as the Frank Prato Chair in Molecular Imaging. Please circulate. www.nature.com/naturecareer...

An excellent question we can all ask ourselves is: "Who are the science communicators and thinkers that are NOT well known?" You'll find that PoC often have smaller platforms than their white colleagues. So, let's do something about it! @hanasciart.bsky.social has a starter pack going! 🧪🔭🎢👩‍🔬

This is great 👇

Why must they CRANK sound systems on airplanes. I’d appreciate an analysis on the risk of deafness vs injury due to an unfastened seat belt. …. In case anyone is looking for a side project. 😣🙉

Pleased to share this interview about the amazing work & the career journey of Michele Pagano in understanding of how cell cycle proteins (and others) are regulated through ubiquitination www.frontiersin.org/journals/cel...

I have a new EA who has never worked with a researcher before. She is handling my administrative email, but research emails have started to leak over. I start seeing holds in my calendar like this 😂🫣 Note to explain the nuances of predatory invitations before I’m booked to go! 😱😂

Throwback to my undergrad … yes I’m this old!

4 years ago the tragedy of Flight #PS752 took you from us. Hard to believe. Sending love & support to all those who are hurting on this horrible night. So much loss, it’s unbearable 💔 Rest in peace sweet Samira. We will never forget you, our hearts will never be the same.

Last paper submission of 2023. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... & submitted to iScience. The Speedy/RINGO family of proteins continue to amaze us with their roles in regulating stem cell populations.

Great job by my 3rd year class today presenting their projects to the public 👏👍

The past, present and future of science publishing. New article from me on a history not always told correctly, the reality of the journal world, and choices for the future doi.org/10.1371/jour...

Me grant writing and I end up looking up pictures of the inside of a leatherback turtles mouth. Yes I have a focus problem - but is this not insane 😬🤯

My lab and undergrad class joining efforts with the Brain Tumour Foundation to raise funds to support the UVic community in the loss of soccer captain and leader Mackenzie Rigg. We need solutions for GBM. 💛💙

Pulled up bulbs, started closing the pool - we may be the most Southern point in Canada but im still dreading the 🥶 … count down is on!
