Stand up for science, Atlanta!

The best keynote talks make you wish you studied the question the speaker is presenting. In that respect, this amazing talk by Amita Sehgal (UPenn) on how and why flies sleep (which is likely the same reason we do) is just so amazing it’s hard to describe. Mind is truly blown. #Dros26

Don’t forget to register for the C. elegans topic meeting June 10-14 in Madison, WI. Early bird registration deadline this Friday 2/27! uwmadison.eventsair.com/mapsdev26/

Was very excited to work on this with @bscarp84.bsky.social

Great

Excited to be at the University of Kentucky to give a seminar hosted by @emduncan.bsky.social

Wanted to report a significant outcome. 0.05 snow fall accumulation in Atlanta.

Really proud of our 8 @oglethorpeuniv.bsky.social seniors who presented posters on their C. elegans pipeline CURE data, along with the whole mentorship team! @aliciakrogers.bsky.social @odedrechavi.bsky.social

Very excited to have @aliciakrogers.bsky.social here today in person @oglethorpeuniv.bsky.social to discuss data with our undergraduates as part of our C. elegans Pipeline CURE!

Exciting to see our Emory University Genetics and Molecular Biology students pursuing their passion for science and imaging! Way to go Nicole! thenode.biologists.com/interview-wi...

Amazing lab. Terrific opportunity!

Was really privileged to play a very small part in providing feedback on the development. Once again @odedrechavi.bsky.social innovating science. Brilliant!

Really excited to host @jasonsynaptic.bsky.social @emoryuniversity.bsky.social

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

Awesome science!

Really enjoyed my visit

Happy to be back @princeton.edu , where I received fabulous PhD training, to give a talk in MolBio and serve as a Health Science panelist for the Many Minds Many Stripes 125th Graduate Anniversary celebration!

Really looking forward to visiting Rutgers and @barrlab.bsky.social tomorrow!

Very excited to share our very exciting story on how misinherited chromatin affects individual cells to cause a behavior defect in C. elegans (a thread👇) www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

So proud of my graduate student Monica Reeves for winning program student of the year in the Genetics and Molecular Biology program at Emory University @emory-gmb.bsky.social

C. elegans initiating a small RNA response

Very excited to be back at the Epigenetics GRC, this time in Barcelona! #epigeneticsgrc2025

Stand up for science. Stand up as if our lives and our economy depend on it. Because, actually, they do. #standupforscience

Excited to be sharing the science from my lab on epigenetic inheritance and Alzheimer’s disease with the community. If you want to watch, here is the link www.youtube.com/live/O4AsL8m... @standupforscience.bsky.social @sci4ga.bsky.social #StandUpForScience actionnetwork.org/events/teach...

Looking forward to engaging with the community and telling people about our science.

Great idea.

Excited to be talking to the community about our work and about why funding science is so important. Come join us! @standupforscience.bsky.social @sci4ga.bsky.social

Absolutely amazing talk from Junho Lee at #worm25 on flying dauer worms!

The amazing tradition that is Worm Show!

Worm folks are the best folks!! And the proof lies in the twenty year tradition of WORM SHOW on the last night (all thanks to the heroic efforts of Morris Maduro & Curtis Loer) 🪱🪱🪱🪱🪱🪱🪱🪱

The incredible worm community! #worm25

Couldn’t agree more. @nematodehunters.bsky.social is awesome. Also come check out the poster at #worm25 of own C. elegans CURE @oglethorpeuniv.bsky.social

I will be opening my new lab in September at UBC! if you’re coming to #Worm25 and are looking for graduate studies or a postdoc position, let’s meet! Vancouver + worms = perfect vibes. www.zoology.ubc.ca/~yeecs/labsi... Please share! 🙌

Fantastic talk. Amazing thesis.

I think we just witnessed the first ever nematode ménage a trois! #worm25

1/n Fellow C elegans enthusiasts! For those of you using WormCat for RNA seq pathway analysis, we are working on the 3.0 version. Comments on annotations/website welcome. Either PM here or let's talk at the Worm meeting in Davis. #Worm25 #celegans

Very excited to be back at the international worm meeting! #worm25

My quote of the day It takes years to realize the multiple benefits of science; without adequate, sustained funding for research, the careers of many bright, young scientists may come to a screeching halt. Carol Greider

Congratulations to @wbickmor.bsky.social for being inducted as a foreign member to the NAS! Great moment for epigenetics and Wendy’s incredible commitment to pursuing nuclear organization.

Congratulations to Yukiko who does beautiful science experiments.

Congratulations to Iva and Gary!!!

Awesome. Looking forward to all of the exciting updates on our Genetics and Molecular Biology PhD students at Emory University.

Very proud of my student Monica Reeves for winning best talk at the Emory University Graduate Student Division Symposium!!!

Katz lab standing up for science! #standupforscience2025

Stand up for science! Atlanta is standing up! #standupforscience2025

My lab will all be standing up for science on Friday in Atlanta! #standupforscience2025

LOL. Whatever you do, don’t do this! Sign up now!

Congratulations to Lauryn Cureton from the Emory GMB graduate program for being inducted into the Bouchet Graduate Honors Society! @emoryuniversity.bsky.social

The US gov’t investment in science is one of the most successful endeavors that mankind has ever undertaken with a staggering return on a very small amount of money. Everyone single person in the US is positively impacted by this investment and should demand it be continued and expanded.

Whomever it was who thought to include this language is a genius and a hero who might literally save the entire US biomedical research industry. Thank you.
