The Canadian Society for Molecular Biosciences (CSMB) is launching a new national seminar series focused on teaching and learning in the molecular biosciences! 🔬 April 23 – 10am PDT via Zoom May 21 - 10am PDT via Zoom June 25 - 10am PDT via Zoom ✍️April 23: ubc.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

The February issue of #G3journal features research from @matthewberg22.bsky.social and colleagues showing how mistranslating tRNAs in #yeast can alter the abundance and phosphorylation of proteins involved in proteostasis, cell cycle, and translation. buff.ly/LKhFZFy

Check out our new work now published in G3! We use proteomics and phosphoproteomics to study how cells cope with tRNA variants that mis-insert amino acids.

One week left! Nominations for CSMB Fellows and 2026 CSMB Awards close January 15. Do you know someone whose research, leadership, or service deserves recognition? Nominating is simple! Don't miss the chance to highlight outstanding colleagues. Learn more and submit nominations: csmb-scbm.ca

🙏🏽 @matthewberg22.bsky.social & @csmb-scbm.bsky.social for capturing my thoughts on mentorship so thoughtfully. Grateful to have @biochemcellbio.bsky.social publish them and to be part of an important conversation on supporting the next generation of scientists. blog.cdnsciencepub.com/trushar-patel/

We invite you to read the article “The unsung guardians of Canadian dominion, innovation, and prosperity” by Thomas Pulnilkunnil, Ecaterina Cozma and Walid Houry, published in the Hill Times last week: www.hilltimes.com/story/2025/0...

We're hiring! Job Posting: Part-Time Administrative Assistant (Bilingual English/French) Canadian Society for Molecular Biosciences (CSMB) csmb-scbm.ca/job-posting-...

🤔 Are you unsure what jobs you can get with your molecular biosciences degree, other than research? Then join the @csmb-scbm.bsky.social next Thursday, June 19, for our next webinar where we'll hear from three scientists with jobs in scientific writing! Sign up here: zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Congratulations to our 2025 CSMB Fellows!

A great start to day 1 of the @csmb-scbm.bsky.social 2025 conference in Ottawa! If you're around, make sure to come out to my talk on Wednesday morning in the "Protein Folding and Aggregation" session. I'll be talking about the cool stuff I've been doing in the @jvillen.bsky.social lab.

The inaugural CSMB Fellows were also recognized tonight. Congratulations to Dr. Imogen Coe, Dr. Jan Rainey and Dr. John Orlowski! @csmb-scbm.bsky.social

The latest work from the @jvillen.bsky.social lab @uwgenome.bsky.social is out now on bioRxiv! Do you want to study phosphotyrosine signaling easily, cheaply and reproducibly? Then check out Alexis' work developing a method for systems-level pY signaling studies! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I'm really excited for this month's @csmb-scbm.bsky.social seminar! It should be a great set of talks 🧪

Our next @csmb-scbm.bsky.social seminar is coming up on Tuesday May 13th at 9am ET! Make sure you tune in to hear about exciting Canadian research 🍁 This month, we'll hear about retro-evolution of the ribosome and Akt signalling in breast cancer. Sign up here: tinyurl.com/5n9xtrmw

Reminders: March 31 is the deadline for early-bird meeting registration and CSMB Fellows program applications. April 2 is the deadline for the CSMB Mentorship initiative applications. Details on our website:

Don't miss out on these seminars! They've been awesome so far and these talks tomorrow sound like they will be equally as great!

📢REMINDER: Don't miss out on our @csmb-scbm.bsky.social seminar next week. Come here about the exciting science happening in Canada! Sign up here: tinyurl.com/5n9xtrmw

The CSMB is excited to launch of the CSMB Fellows program. The deadline for applications is set for March 31, 2025. Learn more about this new initiative on our website
