Meet the #preLighters: Chee Kiang (Ethan) Ewe. 🌟

https://prelights.biologists.com/news/meet-the-prelighters-a-virtual-chat-with-chee-kiang-ethan-ewe/

Ethan is a #postdoc in the lab of @Odedrechavi at Tel Aviv University, Israel, where he studies the molecular basis of epigenetic #inheritance.

We spoke about his very international #career, the #mentors along the way, his future #goals, and the importance of #preprints both to him and the biological #community.

Ooh another really interesting paper on #alzheimers and #lactadherin

A new #SpatialTranscriptomics technique was published on Cell! The authors used polony gels to capture the RNA in situ, and used pixel-seq to map #singlecell transcriptomes back to the tissue. Amazing experimental design! https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(22)01367-8

Welcome @karinayaniv ! I’m also just testing the waters here. I like it :) Slowly but surely finding all ours friends and colleagues! #science

#Introduction #Biology #ECRs #Science #AcademicMastodon

After scoping out Mastodon for about a week now, it's probably time for an #introduction

Hi I'm Alex, a Reviews #Editor for @Dev_journal, a community #journal covering #devbio, #stemcells & #regeneration. Development hosts the #devbiol community blog @the_node and is published by the @Co_Biologists.

I'll mostly be tooting about amazing #devbio research and conferences, and occasionally about personal stuff like #books, #reading, #gardening and other adventures on my bike or #kayak.

#Introduction

Hi #ScienceMastodon. We, at #Dev_journal, are a #community journal covering #DevBio, #stemcells, #regeneration and more. Development is led by Editor-in-Chief @jamesbriscoe & published by the not-for-profit @Co_Biologists.

We’ll be tooting about our #research papers, #reviews, #interviews, charitable activities, #conferences and #devbiol news from our community site, @the_node.

Toots by Online Editor @helenzsci, Reviews Editor @amjeve & Executive Editor Katherine Brown

Does anybody else find Mastodon to be buggy (slow)? I’m sure it’s the crush of people fleeing the bird site. But wondering if it’s just me.

(Also I realize the servers are maintained by volunteers and not a for-profit company, hence grateful, but curious).
