I am excited to announce that I will be moving to IMB Mainz next year! The Winter call for the IPP PhD program is now open; if you are interested in maternal #mRNA regulation and #translation in early vertebrate development, please apply! Deadline: 16 October. More info: www.imb.de/students-pos...

Delighted to share a chemical-genetic system we developed to rapidly inhibit a serine/threonine phosphatase complex (within secs). This will make it much easier to study #phosphatases. The system is also applicable to other “undruggable” enzymes. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thrilled to announce that I am looking for a Research Technician/Assistant to join my lab @imbavienna.bsky.social. Please consider applying if you’re enthusiastic about #devbio #stemcells #teamwork and excited to help shaping a new lab! Thankful for any retweet! 🫶 imba.onlyfy.jobs/job/l6u2m980

We have a 4-year PhD-student opening in our lab, deadline on Wednesday noon. For anyone interested in computational genomics of ancient human, pathogen, or canid genomes. www.crick.ac.uk/careers-stud... If you are curious, send in an application!

openRxiv has arrived! We’re thrilled to announce the launch of openRxiv as an independent, researcher-led nonprofit to oversee bioRxiv and medRxiv, the world’s leading preprint servers for life and health sciences. openrxiv.org/introducing-... #openRxiv #OpenScience #Preprints #bioRxiv #medRxiv

Just under two weeks left to apply for PhD positions at the Crick 🔬🧬 Check out this video featuring @sarahwillich.bsky.social for some application tips youtu.be/XjW4LqwKNFs

🚨New preprint🚨 How do phosphatases affect CDK substrate phosphorylation timing during the cell cycle? We showed that substrates dephosphorylated by different Ppases are net phosphorylated at different times. 📖 Read here: doi.org/10.1101/2025... & follow along for some key insights 🧵

🧪 Got a curious 7–11 year-old at home? 🔍 Whether they’re wondering how yeast grows or want to craft some red blood cells, the new Crick Kids website has them covered! 🎉 Discover fun science activities, hands-on experiments, and lots of quizzes 🧬👩‍🔬🔬 👉 Check it out here: kids.crick.ac.uk

🧪The deadline to submit an abstract for oral and poster presentations at our Biologists @ 100 conference has been extended to Friday 17 January 2025. View the abstract topics and submit yours at 100yearsconference.biologists.com/abstracts/ #biologists100

PhosX is out! doi.org/10.1093/bioi... Leveraging the latest kinase specificity maps by the Cantley, Yaffe, and Turk labs and a rank sum statistic we created PhosX so now we can predict activities for nearly all kinases in your phosphodata, including the understudied ones. Check it out!
