We are very happy to see our study finally appear online @nature.com! This has been work of nearly 10 years in collaboration with the National Institute of Genome Medicine 🇲🇽, the National Cancer Institute 🇲🇽, the @sangerinstitute.bsky.social and others ⬇️ www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Looking forward to another year’s Cell Bio meeting next week in Philly. I am co-chairing a cancer cell biology minisymposium on Tuesday morning with Partha Roy and my pal Junior West @jr2255.bsky.social. Lots of great talks about imaging tumor-TME cell interactions! #cellbio2025

Couldn't agree more - the Biorender-ification of science illustration is so depressing.

Go Jays!!!!!

Thank you to Cancer Discovery @aacrjournals.bsky.social for highlighting our recent paper! aacrjournals.org/cdnews/news/...

Got to love studies that were clearly conducted "for the love of the game" (“self-decapitating sea slugs”, “plants that see and use that for mimicry”, “worms that jump in the air”, aka papers you sometimes find in @currentbiology.bsky.social ) References to all of this bellow👇

I can't believe I need to have an AI policy! I made it pretty short though: Using AI is cheating, yourself mostly. In addition to the environmental blight created by AI, it makes no sense to use it in your intellectual and creative work. Why would you outsource your innate intelligence?

Lay(-ish) summary of our melanoma confinement paper with some behind the scenes details of how this project came about, and what we’re planning to do next (hint: PDAC 🐟). Thanks @nature.com for featuring our work.

My recent postdoctoral work is out today in @nature.com! We found that physical confinement makes melanoma cells more invasive and drug tolerant. Thanks to all who made this work possible @whitefishlab.bsky.social @mskcancercenter.bsky.social #NIH #NCI www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Science is fun, but Academia.. needs work

1/6 Thrilled to share that I have joined the Department of Cell & Systems Biology at the University of Toronto as an Assistant Professor! Grateful for the journey so far and incredibly excited for what’s ahead at @uoftcellsysbiol.bsky.social @utoronto.ca‬. csb.utoronto.ca/faculty/feli...

it is hard to convey in words how bad the bloodbath has been for professionals working in the "not evil" sectors

It's time for Canada to Lead www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

Very smart move. Vancouver is gorgeous and UBC is great. Apply!!

Striking new study from @archaeon-alex.bsky.social's lab just out in @science.org on multicellular development induced by compression in Archaea: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Great ❤️

Hey! Are you an American considering a PhD or a postdoc, and the funding / academic situation just went absolutely bonkers? Canada's federal funding awards just added eligibility for international applicants if at Cdn institutions. www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/NewsDetail-D...

Second, women make terrific leaders. They tend to be organized and prepared. They also tend to be more empathic as they have often experienced more challenges and setbacks than men in similar positions. They tend to be more courageous, particularly when the stakes are high. 36/n

NIH-funded research is at risk. Cuts to federal funding could harm science and the economy. Contact Congress now to protect research. Every call matters. Find your reps at govtrack.us and speak up today. #FundScience www.ascb.org/science-poli...

Super excited to announce my new lab at the University of Michigan opening Jan 2025! 🎉We’ll study how cells work together to shape the GI tract, with ties to regeneration & disease. Hiring at all levels—esp. a research tech to help launch the lab! Info: huyckelab.org #DevBio #CellBio #Hiring

Fun catching up with some fellow RFG lab OGs in San Diego for #cellbio2024! @rodrigofg.bsky.social
