The complete Bayeux Tapestry has finally been released and proves that Bishop Odo had absolutely nothing to do with the illegal Norman invasion of England.

Congratulations, Sura!!

I was interviewed for @theguardian.com by the wonderful @melodyschreiber.com, one of the finest health reporters in the world, about what I called a “neocolonialist” study planned by Danish researchers in Guinea-Bissau, funded by RFK Jr. So many red flags 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Hot off the press at EMBO Journal. The culmination of several years of work and hopefully useful to people in the field! BIG Shout-out to Review Commons, who handled the submission. It's a sensible and efficient model and all the journals I like (Society and NFP) are already participating. 🙏

This…article? … is utterly gross. Removing diversity, equity, and inclusion from our goals as scientists leaves the discipline homogeneous, inequitable, and exclusive—the opposite of why I educate and do research with the next generation of scientists.

If you're at #CellBio2025, please join us tomorrow at 9AM in Room 122 for a fantastic speaker lineup at the #EndoplasmicReticulum Minisymposium! Immediately following our session will be the keynote presentations by Eva Nogales & Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz! @ascbiology.bsky.social

I quoted Janet Iwasa in my talk at #cellbio2025: “All of these animations are really just hypotheses.” Just love the beautiful hypotheses here….

Amazing video. Highly recommend.

Powerful words from Dr. Bryan Dewsbury (@dewsbury.bsky.social) from the #CellBio2025 Education keynote: “When I stand in front of a classroom, I tell students that I am interested in being more than their destination to a final grade”

If you aren’t at Bryan Dewsbury’s talk on Transformative Change at #cellbio2025 right now, you really should be.

Another wonderful undergraduate poster session at the Mentored Undergraduate Research Showcase at #ASCB #CellBio2025. Bravo! And if you are at the meeting in Philly, check out those folks' posters at the main poster sessions!

Are you interested in learning more about #micropublications ? Check out the roundtable at #CellBio2025 Monday, December 8, 12:00 pm @ascbiology.bsky.social, @micropub7n.bsky.social

I ❤️ my community.

Dahlberg lab got to present at the Seattle Worm meeting! Proud of my undergrads and SO happy to see so many alumni in the audience.

I deeply appreciate this post. But I must say, as a resident of DC: subway was a sandwich of convenience, not necessarily our best representation. We’re used to not having representation, though…

Socioeconomic roots of academic faculty Tenure-track faculty are up to 25 times more likely to have a parent with a Ph.D. Moreover, this rate nearly doubles at prestigious universities and is stable across the past 50 years. #AcademicSky

Science needs to be part of our day to traditions. For many years - I have continued to give Foldscope @teamfoldscope.bsky.social with the candy on Halloween. Try it out and surprise the kids with the capacity to see and discover real #microMonsters crawling on our planet. 🎃👻 #FoldscopeHalloween

Heading to #NDiSTEM2025 to present work on ER-stress in _C. elegans_ from our undergraduate-powered lab!

This is a great commentary with useful historical context and perspective. We lose when we don't give everyone the opportunity to participate fully.

Our student-led Molecular Biosciences club (which includes Biology, Chem, and Neuroscience majors) at WWU will be hosting a screening tomorrow night as part of the nation-wide screenings happening this week! www.pbs.org/independentl...

it's got that "garage forward" suburban house feel

Speak out for yourselves and our colleagues who cannot yet speak up!

If you are a scientist and not out in the street Saturday, you are jeopardizing your own future. Join us! We have power when we band together

Cool Postdoc opportunity alert! UNC SPIRE (Seeding Postdoctoral Innovators in Research & Education)-it provides scholars with both high quality research training & the opportunity to develop research based teaching skills that will inspire students across the sciences 1/n spire.unc.edu/program-info/

Who, specifically, advised this? Is this in writing? I ask as a white American of eastern European ancestry and a proud SACNAS member. It is a great organization.

Trump Is Shutting Down the War On Cancer www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/m... Also shutting down huge swaths of scientific research across disciplines.

I want to note, because the initial article doesn't make this clear, that the professor being taped in the video is calm, clear, and patient with the student. Furthermore, the professor appears to be teaching absolutely basic medically accepted science & history of gender expression.

The same Supreme Court that said it is unreasonable to consider race when giving kids access to education, has said it's reasonable to consider race when looking to remove someone from the country. Funny how that works.

Covid-19 vaccines are now accessible, but not guaranteed to be available, for all Washington residents over 6 months according to a new state order.

New LSE study from Dr. Cynthia Brame (Vanderbilt) shows Learning Assistants boost STEM student belonging & confidence. Group time reduced isolation, while lecture roles emphasized feedback, shaping more inclusive classrooms. 🔗 www.lifescied.org/doi/10.1187/... #ScienceEducation

Hi Seattle! Come see my talk on the history of human-computer interaction. I'll explain U.S. gov funding of science has led to many of the innovations that power our economy & shape our lives — and call out the short-sightedness & hypocrisy of efforts to defund science in this field & so many others

It's right to be angry at the US government's interference in Greenland; it's just another example of large colonial powers interfering in the affairs of a people who've seen little else for generations

Agreed, but... I wish this sort of coverage had been more timely. We need preventative care or early treatment, not documentation of an autopsy.

Honored to join Dr. Michael Horowitz on the Radical Cooperation podcast on how higher ed can learn from the natural world. We discussed why silos persist & what they cost us, also how we can move toward systems rooted in collaboration, trust, and shared success. podcasts.apple.com/it/podcast/h...

Hey 🧪 I’m looking for a sci-savvy illustrator to build a cartoon-style schematic for a paper about summer research experiences. HMU if this describes you or your side gig.

Some PIs will stop at nothing to motivate their lab members. 🧪

There is still time to comment against the ridiculous proposal that the NIH discontinue soliciting proposals for research that uses "animal models" for "human relevant" science. www.fda.gov/news-events/...

Please comment on this! The complexity of living systems cannot be fully recapitulated by in vitro or computational approaches alone. While advances in non-animal model technologies offer complementary tools, they lack the full physiological and developmental context of a living organism.

This was such a fun session and I’m so grateful to the folks organizing #Worm25 for inviting me! Hearing about Dr. Padilla’s journey and advocacy and then getting to talk about my own story was awesome! Be kind, communicate with people, fight misinformation, and find your community to thrive! 🧬 💪🏽

I’m feeling hopeful and inspired at Pamela Padilla’s #worm25 talk. We have work to do. We should be kind while doing it.

Great panel discussion with Aimee Jamarillo-Lambert, Pam Padilla and Crystal Rogers @rogerslabucd.bsky.social #worm25 @genetics-gsa.bsky.social

Impromptu lab reunion lunch! If anyone is looking for a talented and dedicated post-bacc researcher, Alina (currently at UC Davis) is looking for a lab! #worm25

As a two-time Fulbrighter, I applaud the courage of this board and agree that the cancelling of Fulbright grants based on political intervention is abhorrent. It also further weakens the standing of US Scholars and the reputation of the US abroad. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/11/u...
