I am super excited to let you know that our paper "Variations within the glycan shield of SARS-CoV-2 impact viral spike dynamics" in collaboration with Max Crispin's lab is now live on JMB #glycotime #SarsCoV2 #viralinfection #variants

Interesting review about the role of glycans in the mechanobiology of cancer. Stiffening of the extracellular matrix (ECM) as the major factor influencing cancer-promoting behavior: survival signaling, proliferation and migration.

#Introduction
Hi all, I am Elisabeth Bik, @microbiomdigest on Twitter. I am a Dutch/American microbiologist with a PhD from Utrecht University (not an MD).

In 2019 I started working for myself. I specialize in #ImageForensics, i.e. searching for image problems in published scientific papers, #ResearchIntegrity and #ScienceMisconduct.

Hope to meet and discuss problems in science papers with you here!

I mostly post #ImageForensics challenges or rant about #SciencePublishing.

#Introduction toot.

I'm a molecular virologist studying #BSL4 pathogens, primarily #filoviruses like #Ebola #Lloviu and #Marburg viruses at the #NEIDL at #BostonUniversity
I'm a big proponent of collaborating and #OpenScience

I love exploring the outdoors; #camping #hiking #kayaking #snowshoeing
I also enjoy #gardening and #brewing beer and cider.
I'm a huge #nerd at home too: my non-science reading list is mostly #nature #sciencefiction and #fantasy and I play #dungeonsanddragons

Hi all, a little #introduction from me 🤗

I'm a new Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Organic Chemistry and Chemical Biology at UCL Chemistry #London 🥳

My group develops methods to control nucleic acids (#DNA #RNA) and synthetic cells (#synbio) with stimuli, like light, temperature and magnetism - we use all sorts of chemistries like #photocages, #polymers, and #nanoparticles

I will also toot about parenting, #coeliac disease, and things I find funny!

Intro time. Hi #sciencemastodon - I'm Co-Founder of the #preprint servers bioRxiv & medRxiv at Cold Spring Harbor Lab, where I also oversee CSH Perspectives and other #publishing projects. I trained as a molecular biologist. My goal is to improve science communication.

Learn more about bioRxiv at https://doi.org/10.1101/833400 - and on the podcast https://tinyurl.com/y8rbttwz

I'm also interested in promoting understanding of different career paths for academics. More at https://tinyurl.com/4papvn5z
