Today I made a small but momentous start to work in 2026 by changing a single number. I renamed the file “Papers to write and submit in 2025” to “Papers to write and submit in 2026”. Stay tuned for more file updates on 1st January 2027.

A popular post on LinkedIn related to the reliability of current state-of-the-art instrumentation. #teammassspec Related, anyone know how many more scientists are employed in marketing compared to R&D?

Please share: @UBCScience is searching for 15 TT faculty in diverse areas of expertise science.ubc.ca/about/careers. Included are 2 positions in Quantitative and Environmental Science as part of a hiring cluster for black faculty; you will join 6 current UBC faculty science.ubc.ca/blackscholars.

We think now is a good time to draw attention to the #DiversifyCAZymes list, to which you can nominate yourself at the link below. And to highlight our LinkedIn group, which you can ask to join at www.linkedin.com/groups/98124... Good science needs a diverse research community to thrive. #glycotime

Your yearly reminder to acknowledge the core facilities you use and their staff scientists in your papers. These scientists are a crucial part of the scientific ecosystem and to continue to exist they need tangible credit for their work. Plus their associated expertise adds credibility to your work.

10 days left to apply for this #glycotime PhD position in my lab at @kthuniversity.bsky.social ! Please share the link with Master's students and other ECRs in your network who might be interested in studying in beautiful Stockholm 🌞 www.kth.se/lediga-jobb/...

I'm recruiting a PhD student - details on the project and how to apply at this link 🤓 stockholmcazyme.com/2025/03/21/p...

WTF is this, why am I seeing it all over my feeds, why are none of the commenters or re-posters acknowledging that this is computer generated gibberish, and why are supposed experts not embarrassed to post shit like this?

I participated in a faculty panel a few weeks ago in which senior (ahem) faculty gave advice on careers in academia by pretending luck had very little to do with our success. One piece of advice riled me up, in which it was argued that a reason for their success was their ability to say no. 1/

Any peeps in the UK (to avoid import paperwork) got any mucin degrading bacteria I can get a colony of please? All species considered. Double points if they are nasal derived. #MicroSky #mucin

Glyco-friends - we are at about 100 people in the starter pack I am looking after, and I think for a field as broad as ours it is fitting if we can get to 150 and start a volume 2. So spread the word!

We also have a industry-linked PhD position on Bacteroides and host glycans that will be advertised soon #glycotime🍭 The IMI is an amazing environment with lovely PIs doing loads of cool science, so please apply if you see a project you're interested in 🥼🧪

This one is for the #glycotime community: has anyone tried to cleave Lewis X/CD15 from the surface a live mammalian cells using a recombinant fucosidase? I found single paper from 2007 but curious if anyone else has a recent protocol to share 😬

If you're interested in learning about the latest of fundamental mycobacteriology, sign up for #GRCMyco2025! Acceptances will start in September, check out the full program and please RT!

Deadline for submission of abstracts has been extended to November 24th. Join us for a great meeting! 👇

The Wallenberg Wood Science Centre is hosting an international conference in Stockholm, June 15-18, 2025. Connected to this is the new Young Researchers Award, see link for info and how to nominate! conference2025.wwsc.se/young-resear...

Are you a trainee interested in glycobiology? Join us for the Glycobiology Gordon Research Seminar, March 22-23, 2025 in Italy! www.grc.org/glycobiology... We will have talks, posters, and a mentoring session with #glycotime leaders. Submit abstracts by Dec 15 to be considered for a talk!

Still time to register to awsome Glycobiology Gordon Research Conference 2025. We have a fantastic line of speakers and this will be top #glycotime in Tuscany !! Register at www.grc.org/glycobiology...

For those of you that prefer feeds over following, I've figured out how to convert starter packs into lists, so you can get your glyco fix as a feed. If you're on the starter pack, you're on the list, and anyone new on the starter pack will get added to the feed!

Waves of new BlueSky arrivals in last few days! I’ve been tracking starter packs relevant to molecular/mechanistic/genetic/cellular…etc biology Hope it’s helpful but warning: now a v long thread! Probably the last time I can do this...

The #DiversifyCAZymes initiative also has a LinkedIn group where we share relevant job postings, PhD positions, conferences, etc. www.linkedin.com/groups/98124...

As someone who has gained a lot of knowledge and career advice from fellow glycobiologists, I wanted to recreate a space for discussion on Bluesky. Here's a starter pack with some glycobiology users to get started. Please comment/DM me to get added to the #glycotime starter pack go.bsky.app/CN9pS3u

Hallo BlueSky! Hoping to re-find the #glycoscience community on here and raise awareness of the @diversifycazymes.bsky.social initiative, check it out 😀
