This is worth reading under the Christmas tree! I was touched by the stories of @DrAnneCarpenter and @LashuelLab who both shrunk their lab following health issues. Perhaps science, as well as scientists, would be better off if we all ran smaller labs?

Hello #sciencemastodon. I’m the Executive Editor of @J_Cell_Sci. I’m relatively new to the position (having been an Editor at @Dev_journal for years) so I’m here to find out about all things #cellbio (and maybe some #devbio 😊). Any suggestions on who or what to follow?

I am extremely happy to share my latest article in @lab_locher, "Molecular basis for glycan recognition and reaction priming of eukaryotic oligosaccharyltransferase” in @NatureComms
Thanks to all co-authors for this fantastic work!!

Molecular basis for glycan recognition and reaction priming of eukaryotic oligosaccharyltransferase - Nature Communications

Oligosaccharyltransferase (OST), the central enzyme in N-glycosylation, modifies acceptor proteins by attaching a complex glycan. Cryo-EM structures of OST in distinct states, reveal the molecular basis of substrate recognition and catalysis.

Hello, fediverse! Here's my #Introduction. I'm a freelance #Science #Journalist and #Editor. When I write, it's usually about #Chemistry and #Biochemistry - think #Plastic waste , #DrugDiscovery , #OriginOfLife ; I also cover #DC #Food and #Restaurants. I'm currently secretary of the DC Science Writers Association and volunteer for the National Association of Science Writers, so you'll see event-related toots here as well.
Hi everyone! I guess that it was about time, so this is my #introduction My name is Jordi, I'm Associate Professor at Uppsala University. I'm a screener, phenotypic drug discovery and automation are two of my professional passions. Otherwise you will find me playing with my kids, eating good food with the family, doing sports (Svensk Klassiker anyone?), and listening to music whenever time allows. See you around!

Wait a second, these are not real error bars … the author literally just put the letter “T” above the bar graphs 😭

Hello #ScienceMastodon! I am an assistant professor in the MIT Department of Biology with our lab based at the Koch Institute. We build tools for high-throughput functional genomics in mice in order to understand and modulate regenerative capacity across mammalian tissues.

Hello Mastodon friends! #Introduction time…

I study neural networks supporting flexible #Navigation at HHMI’s Janelia Research Campus. Using tractable systems, both biological (flies) and artificial (RNNs), I try to link the structure of neural circuits to their underlying function. In grad school, I studied hippocampal ripples at Caltech, and I love searching for shared operating principles across systems/species.

Here are two of my favorite fly neuron types. Aren’t they beautiful? 🙂

The new http://AlphaFill.eu website is now also online. #AlphaFold V3 and future entries will be made on-the-fly when you ask for the @uniprot primary accession code. https://twitter.com/TassosPerrakis/status/1595814688176193536

#introduction I am a scientist working in NMR spectroscopy, developing new methods and instruments to study dynamic biological systems. I work at CNRS and my lab is based at Ecole Normale Superieure & PSL University, in Paris, France. I like to post about science and post pictures (food, city views, landscapes)...
