Excited to share the Ovarian Cancer Research Syndicate line-up of speakers for the fall. Please share. We have amazing trainees presenting and the latest from leaders in the field. @powelldrescher.bsky.social @srocf.bsky.social @pennmedcso.bsky.social @penncancer.bsky.social

My lab at The Wistar Institute is recruiting on multiple levels! We are looking for a research technician and/or senior lab manager to help support all lab projects. Cell culture, molecular biology, and animal handling expertise and 3+ years of experience needed. Apply here: lnkd.in/ecvdTwkf

Big day for multiple lab members who celebrated a promotion! Congrats to Apoorva Uboveja for promotion to Staff Scientist and Aidan Cole for starting as a postdoc! I am now a full professor too 🤓 Want to learn more about our science or join the lab? Visit Airdlab.com

The summer has been busy! Along with the move and a PhD defense, we have updated two preprints: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I could not be more excited to finally announce that my lab will be moving to The Wistar Institute in Philadelphia in early September! While this is somewhat of a homecoming for me, it is a new adventure for the 6 lab members moving with me! More details to come about new roles and opportunities!

Our preprint by @raquelbuj.bsky.social was highlighted! What a cool idea to give early career scientists the opportunity to practice peer review skills! See the updated preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1....

Anyone else having trouble contacting Fetterman? I’ve tried both his DC and Pittsburgh office numbers, and it keeps disconnecting

Bluetorial: The rationale for the “NIH” indirect cost “plan” is based on misunderstood (unintentional or intentional) accounting and math The value of real government transparency

BREAKING: Federal judge in Boston broadens block on Trump's NIH grant 15% overhead limit (indirect cost rates) to all recipients nationwide. Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/25... #TROpalooza ain't done

A useful tool and a great thing to do... 5calls.org/issue/nih-ns...

not paying indirect costs for research is like only paying the players in the Super Bowl. can't have a Super Bowl without coaches, referees, security, janitors, announcers, stadium staff, and a stadium - and you can't have research without supporting people and facilities

Cutting NIH funds hurts all Americans. Why? Three main reasons: #1: These funds support a huge industry in all states. For every $1 of NIH funding generated, there is a short-term return of ~$2.46 in economic activity. $4B in cuts will take away $10B from the economy.

So proud of Richard Fang, a senior undergrad in the lab, highlighted in this nice write-up. He is about to graduate and move on to bigger and better things as an MD/PhD student, and we will miss him! www.pitt.edu/pittwire/fea...

Good Sunday. This weekly summary of papers in #cancermetabolism and #mitochondrialbiology is full of exciting discoveries. Check it here: biomed.news/bims-camemi/... @biomednews.bsky.social "The greatest obstacle to living is expectancy, which hangs upon tomorrow and loses today."-Seneca

This project started with a talented grad student noticing that low levels of sGC correspond to the ability of CSPC cells to evade androgen deprivation-induced senescence. Six years (2 in peer review) and one pandemic later, voila… aacrjournals.org/cancerres/ar...

It’s my lab’s 8th birthday today. I am overwhelmed with gratitude to be able to do this job, mentor my trainees (currently killing it 🤩), and interact with the smartest colleagues and collaborators one could ask for. Mid-career hasn’t been easy, and I’m thankful to still be making cool discoveries.

Good morning all! Another week of fantastic papers in #cancermetabolism and #mitochondrialbiology has just passed. Don't miss these papers, find them here: biomed.news/bims-camemi/... @biomednews.bsky.social "Calm down. Both your sins and your good deeds will be lost in oblivion." -Czesław Miłosz

Are you ready for this? We are on Bluesky too!!! Follow the account of NATURE CELL BIOLOGY below! bsky.app/profile/natu...

Hi, are there some starter packs for molecular evolution, or evolutionary biology in general?

Excited to see so many scientists active here over the past few days! As a re-introduction, I am a faculty member at UPitt, and my lab focuses on cancer metabolism and its intersection with cell cycle dysregulation. We are actively recruiting postdocs!! See more at Airdlab.com

One of the best things for me about that other site was finding good papers to read. Where are all the journals? Have they not migrated here?

Switching back to Bluesky after the shit show of this week! Hi everyone! 👋

For those not on the “other” site- newest preprint from the lab where we discovered something totally unexpected! aKG drives histone acetylation and DNA repair by carnitine synthesis
