Super interesting! I’m curious what’s considered a “high-fiber” diet for people. Looks like the mice were tested on either no fiber or all carbs replaced with fiber? 🌾VS🍞 #microbiomesky 🧪🦠

Campus housing 🏡 a big bonus! Plus more than 10 canteens 🥡(we haven't cooked a single meal for a year haha)! My American husband also likes it here :)

And salary? Due to low taxes & subsidized housing, our offer provides a quality of life comparable to a US$215k - $300k salary in major US academic hubs like NYC or the Bay Area. A great deal for your science and your life.

What does our start-up package mean in US terms? It's equivalent to $3.8M package at a top US university. Why? We fully cover PI salary costs and 5 PhD scholarships, so your research grant is for research.

Proteins must be folded into their correct shapes to function properly. @hillerlab.bsky.social discovered tiny “folding factories” in cells that enable efficient and accurate protein folding. @unibas.ch @snsf.ch @natcellbio.nature.com www.biozentrum.unibas.ch/news/detail/...

Our latest efforts to understand Enterococcal wound infection. In long-term collaboration with @gthibault.bsky.social, we discovered how E. faecalis makes extracellular ROS - via EET!⚡️Which in turn dysregulates host UPR to delay wound healing. Led by @aarontan.bsky.social - his videos below are 🤩!

📢 Our new preprint is out! We show how the common gut bacterium 𝘌. 𝘧𝘢𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴 stops wound healing. It uses a metabolic pathway, extracellular electron transport (EET), to stress host cells, halting their migration. Watch WT bacteria (orange) stop the cells while the mutant (blue) doesn't!

Did you know that JCS publishes Tools & Resources articles? These articles describe a new tool, technique or resource that will have a significant impact on #cellbiology research. Tell people about your latest tool/resource and send your article our way! journals.biologists.com/jcs/pages/re...

Very happy to see how this project turned out. It was an awesome collaboration with Marek Mutwil and I learned so much along the way.

We have some news! We find that the post-synaptic Homer proteins coordinate YAP and Wnt signaling in epithelial cells, downstream of the Crumbs polarity complex. They do so by sequestering YAP and beta-catenin in biomolecular condensates, and by suppressing a FRYL/NDR complex. Check it out!

Are you a PI in a biology field looking for students to join your lab as a PhD student? I made a Starter Pack to help PIs and potential PhD students connect! If you would like to be added to this pack, please let me know! go.bsky.app/EFj87fi

The "reproducibility crisis" in science constantly makes headlines. Repro efforts are often limited. What if you could assess reproducibility of an entire field? That's what @brunolemaitre.bsky.social et al. have done. Fly immunity is highly replicable & offers lessons for #metascience A 🧵 1/n

🧵1/ New preprint out! We reveal that ERAD, a protein degradation pathway, selectively targets intracellular PILS auxin transport facilitators to control growth. This expands ERAD's role beyond protein quality control, right into developmental regulation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Non-profit journals are on the critical list. The cause: academics obsession with the Nature brand, coupled with the APC $ model. Some will argue it doesn’t matter (“all as bad as each other”). But the fact is undeniable and it’s good guys who put money back into science like COB who are losing..
