@jasonrkelly.bsky.social interesting post in @bostonglobe.com but I wonder how you are squaring up promoting biotech jobs in Boston with your push for automated labs and AI, which IMHO will reduce the employment footprint. The hand-wavy argument that automation will increase employment wont cut it

@jasonsynaptic.bsky.social enjoying the test match?

Someone should ask Marcia McNutt where the industry jobs are that we should be training Biological Sciences postdocs and graduate students for? After all, she is all in on the ABUNDANCE agenda and she would know Right?

The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) mirror most scientific societies: lacking courage, clarity, and leadership. Like other societies, NAS has drifted from its mandate of defending science with vision and integrity. The difference is that not every society has sold out. NAS has.

What Roy Blunt is saying is that this is not the worst times, cause the worst is yet to come @nationalacademies.org

How is it surprising that the Head of @nationalacademies.org is an out of touch administrator? What is shocking is that folks thought these societies work for promoting science rather than protecting their turf

Research in fly and worm risk suffering similar fates @mbeisen.bsky.social

Sad day for #vegetarians in #Boston

While it is a bit alarming when the water rises above your waist, it is far more alarming when it rises above your nose. It is a travesty that despite this, someone is still refusing to turn off the tap. It is beyond tragic that we cannot discriminate between a 3 alarm and a 5 alarm fire

We identified novel #autoantibody signatures that discriminate between clinically defined subtypes in #Scleroderma (SSc) & While doing that identified a new human protein family called TiSSc (Targeted in SSc) that is targeted by autoantibodies in one distinct patient subtype. Read more here:

We are at a point where Generating hypeby misrepresenting stuff in papers = great Generating hype by misrepresenting stuff in talks = great Using LLM to write papers = sin The anger is not towards falsehoods, but against use of LLMs to do so No wonder then...

@nature.com and Colossal with their hype generating machine

Reading the comments of this news article is *chefs kiss*

Like it or hate it, but the Question remains. At what point of time does @openevidence.bsky.social or a similar LLM replace the Primary Care #Physician? Will your primary care in the near future be managed by an #LLM and not a #PCP?

It's academic year 2020 6-7

Inflation is real

Excited to share new work from our lab that details a novel mechanism by which #Enteric #Neurons put a brake on proliferation of #Colon #Cancer cells

What a mess a misplaced vowel makes

Stress doesn’t just affect your head, it also messes with your gut. While we have all dealt with it, we dont have a cure for it. Cause? Lack of basic mechanistic science. Our paper published today identifies a mechanism by whichstress slows gut down, and how to cure it www.jbc.org/article/S002...

Wonderful work from @honghaocao.bsky.social and @sixianyou.bsky.social on crafting a new method to study the enteric nervous system and associated cells. This was a really interesting and fun collaboration between our labs! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Watch intently to better your Significance and Innovation section for your NIH grants youtu.be/5ptUMe9eqYE?...

How about first publishing papers that your editors don't pre-judge on the 'impact' of the study

"What the fuck do you mean by data available on request?"

If you have ever wondered why that one particular faculty in your field/dept/school behaves the way he/she does...

Ever wondered why 90% of #Rett Syndrome (RTT) patients suffer from severe #GI issues like chronic #constipation? A new study from our lab digs into this using an Mecp2 KO mouse model. (1/n)

Healthspan stops at 'Not Discussed'

Explains the lack of relevant expertise and a mismatch of grants and study section members' expertise at many current study sections now

Goodness Gracious Me was 'Prophet'ic, eh? @richardsever.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tw7...

Wow! Neanderthals were in soft money positions in academia for millenia...

#Fallout seems less like a dystopian fiction and more like a documentary set in the near future

Marc Andreessen is the perfect middle manager. Zero introspection. Zero constructive thoughts. Zero ability to work on feedback. Zero humanity

What the article doesnt mention is the challenge to BART from Waymo and other road-driving vehicles Bay Area folks have a history of taking decisions that will make their lives worse....so wont be surprised if killing off BART is one of them

In a world where journals don't make transformative decisions.. Biology Open has the courage to walk the talk

@jasonsynaptic.bsky.social @harmitmalik.bsky.social @roylab-ucsd.bsky.social

At what point do we accept/proclaim that decision to take up a job dependent a lot or entirely on federal funding for science was/is the worst decision ever Asking for a friend

Scientists need to be more like showbiz stars? Wait, really? We need to be influencers now? Is this satire? Has @theonion.com bought @nature.com
