@faseborg.bsky.social - structural virology meeting about to start!

German broadcast. Nailed it

well, I get to take the bus to the airport to travel to the #VirStrucSRC instead of watching the #worldcup final... still very excited to crash the Virology party events.faseb.org/event/Virus-.... I have many brains to pick there!

A tennis score, hah!

our very own Asher Ferreira won the Astronaut Scholarship! www.colorado.edu/biochemistry... 🧵

So you’ve commented on the OMB rule. Here’s what needs to happen next if we don’t want to see this rule implemented: 1. Call your members of Congress. 2. Join the movement urging Congress to impeach and convict Russell Vought. actionnetwork.org/forms/civil-...

Join us in a fun, crazy and interesting interdisciplinary research project that combines protein biophysics, evolutionary genomics, biomolecular archaeology, and textile research to resolve species identity and post-translational modifications in the structural proteins collagen and keratin

solid plan

thought I'd get an early start with tweaking syllabus for fall teaching and OMG #claude is so good with this annoying task. I have NEVER been able to make a syllabus without mistakes in dates, for example, and the advice on flow / placement is honestly better than it has any right to be.

Posted my comments opposing OMBs proposed rule. It was so easy, using this great letter writing tool of @faseborg.bsky.social www.faseb.org/science-poli... Did you submit yours yet? The deadline is soon - July 13. This is essential to save science and research in the US.

This letter generator is extremely helpful!

Glad to see the boys again. They are always at the same location, year after year. Can't say I blame them!

The OMB rule would codify this uncertainty, making termination a constant threat to all federally funded science. Your field might be safe now, but this rule would allow the admin to stop any line of research that becomes politically inconvenient. Posting below resources on where/how to comment.

Introns have a hidden regulatory role! 🧬🎉 Delighted to share our latest paper showing that inefficiently spliced introns and spliceosomal proteins direct RNA methylation, engaging RNAi to silence retrotransposons and regulate gene expression nature.com/articles/s41...

This man is my hero!

Join us on Monday at 2pm EST in partnership with @standupforscience.net for a last chance to submit comments against the OMB's proposed rule! Use your voice to help us save scientific research! Register below: events.standupforscience.net/stand-up-for...

Nosy mamot!

We're experiencing this heatwave because the gates of hell have opened for Mitch McConnell.

Can't wait to hear about it in person!

I repeat «Ceci n’est pas un goal »

My department @eth-dbiol.bsky.social at ETH Zurich is hiring for a tenured professor in mol cell bio and biochemistry (associate/full). The position is within the Institute of Biochemistry (www.bc.biol.ethz.ch) and it is fairly open within their scope of research. www.nature.com/naturecareer...

good stuff

Excited to share our new preprint led by Fred and me in collaboration with the archaeal community! We found that the molecular foundation of histone-based chromatin has pre-eukaryotic roots in Asgard archaea. (1/4) #ArchaeaSky www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

If you need a car in a city, this Microlino is all the car you need

Too bad someone's got to go home. Can't we keep both teams?

Boy I love soccer right now except to its really fussball

🚨 HEADS UP: If you haven't submitted a comment on the OMB proposal yet, there's still time - but it's running out! There are only 11 days left to push back against Russell Vought's attempt to give political appointees unprecedented control over federal research funding. Take Action: zurl.co/R83IO

Colorado Blue Columbine on Clear Creek today #nativeplants 🌿

i hope with a healty portion of onions @theonion.com !

thats right just pile it on

really @cnn.com ? thats the best you've got? REALLY?? ya think thats clever? 😭😭😭

Incredibly proud of Messi Haile @mehsehret.bsky.social, a founding member of the Ho Lab, for her beautiful work uncovering the inner workings of a central piece of the malaria parasite invasion machinery: the malarial moving junction, out today in @cellpress.bsky.social! tinyurl.com/4p3md2eb 🦠❄️🔬

to quote @karaswisher.bsky.social - those f*&c%ing guys

Gorsuch, Alito, and Thomas dissent. How tf is this not unanimous

📢 We're hiring! The Department of Microbiology & Cell Biology at Montana State University is hiring an Assistant Professor of Microbiology. We welcome applicants working in microbial pathogenesis, immunology, genetics, microbial evolution, and related areas. Apply: jobs.montana.edu/postings/52009

👇👇👇👇👇 Only losers in this lineup 👇👇👇👇👇

Thanks @mjsdc.bsky.social for taking one for the team.

If you visit our National Parks, you have seen the results. The amazing NP Rangers and staff do more with less, safety of visitors is neglected (eg. Gunnison), but hey, at least our Prez has a nice 'commute'. Has he ever set foot into one of our parks? www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Been laid up for a while and only now getting back on the trail. More to come hopefully

Lab shows its artistic side at Inks&drinks lab outing! Plants, painting, wood art, makramee, and yes a decorated skull. Thanks @hhmi-science.bsky.social for sponsoring some much deserved time to relax and use that other half of our brain

sums it up. #heatwave in Europe.

New PARP1 preprintfrom the lab, by Alex Fiorenza and our amazing undergrad Mahika Anand. PARP1 functions in DNA repair, but what about its second gig as a chromatin architectural protein? How does it stay enzymatically quiet? Read all about it here. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

that dang research! all that effort and wasted money and now this 👇👇👇👇👇👇 oh, wait... (scratches head)

just when you think the aholery has reached peak, there is MORE!
