Mr Kitten says happy Saturday

What else should I record with IR?

Your gel running in the IR!

It's not too late to participate in #McClintockLetters! Check out all the resources we have available and get writing: tinyurl.com/McClintockLettersInitiative Please don't hesistate to reach out with any questions!

What a figure www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Love seeing this mCherry in sf9 cells!

How cool is it to get messages like that?! Wow! So much of the joy of science is the mentorship I get to give, its the mentees!

More reason not to use the old site: www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Finally! Someone recognized my expertise in “topics”

What does this part of a cytometer do? (The clear cube part)

To have this paper appear the same day that RFK Jr is canceling all mRNA vaccine funding is further indication that irony is not dead, even though we might all be soon.

RFK Jr and HHS just ended all US supported mRNA vaccine development www.hhs.gov/press-room/h...

kickstarter idea: tongue gene therapy for people that don’t like cilantro 🌿

This surprisingly relaxing footage is from SIX MILES under the ocean – and it’s the deepest ecosystem yet discovered

How strange, no “mechanically separated meat”, EDTA or Whale oil?

Happy Wednesday

The #cat train... 😅🤣 #catday #bluesky

#Theoutpost As the meteors blaze through Earth’s atmosphere at over 130,000 mph, they burn up in brilliant flashes of different colors – and those colors reveal what elements are inside. More in alt

I think many people would do this just for the hair. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This could be fun www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Made with love

How cool is this?! www.kickstarter.com/projects/blo...

The ICE budget is now set to be approximately what the NIH budget was. We’re shifting money from solving real problems to solving fictitious problems.

If they were planning to keep this all secret, maybe they shouldn’t have published it 🤷 So easy to 3D print a cylinder. Not sure how it is nonobvious… pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

We are finally hearing firsthand what happened at CECOT. At least 277 people illegally rendered from the US remain there, and President Trump is now talking about sending American citizens there. Do not let this slip from view.

Another plasmid I am excited about offering is this fully open source Taq polymerase expression circuit. Inducible via lactose or IPTG. Ampicillin selected. Born free. You can make your own polymerase and purification is as easy as boiling water and centrifuging. Coming soon!

Wow! Scientists engineered E. coli to convert plastic waste (PET) into pain medicine paracetamol (acetaminophen or Tylenol) in under 24 hours with up to 92% yield. www.nature.com/articles/d41... #medsky #pharmsky 🧪

Very creative name too!

I have been both a technician & a PhD student. Funnier when we had funding....

#BethesdaDeclaration @standupforscience.bsky.social I decided to share the opportunity to sign the support letter for the Bethesda Declaration with my entire email list for our family holiday letter. I learned some important lessons. 1/n

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle. Don't give them one. Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

What are good places to deposit mammalian cell lines you want to share as open-source? (for an NIH grant/project)

Maybe we ought to introduce gambling into science?

#drosophila @flybase.bsky.social request emergency funding: "As it stands, by the end of July, 2025, there will be no future updates to FlyBase, and in the worst case scenario access to the website will also be lost" => please donate! www.philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-to-camb...

How cool is this? I have been thinking about this capability for many years. Now to extend to longer wavelengths so ww can see thermally! www.cell.com/cell/pdf/S00...

If we don’t back down, they will

This is brilliant because it takes advantage of academics’ natural willingness to talk about their work. Please consider doing one of these!

They say it can’t be done, but here we are, California is generated 106% of California’s entire state electricity demand from renewables. California has a population bigger that 154 other countries around the world. It’s the 4th largest economy, in the world. Let that sink in. #energysky #greensky

This wonderful team from Pakistan is raising to get to the iGEM Jamboree and only have a few days left. They are 75% of the way to their goal. Please share, and if you have the means please donate. Every penny counts! www.gofundme.com/f/help-team-...

Happy to share the peer-reviewed and updated version of our work on OrthoRep-driven evolution of aaRSs for genetic code expansion with unnatural amino acids. Congrats to Yuichi Furuhata, a true master bioengineer, on leading this excellent work! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
