#Introduction

I work as a #science #journalist for #French #newspaper Le Parisien. I write stories about #space #astronomy #archeology #biology

Je suis un #journaliste #français travaillant au #Parisien, en charge des #sciences. J'écris notamment sur #astronomie #archeologie #biologie

Today is #science day at #COP27. #Bioscience is crucial for understanding #climatechange.
This #PLOSBiology essay explores the potential of #biotechnology to contribute to the expansion of genetic diversity in crops as a strategy for climate resilience https://plos.io/3ITNZXQ

Would you like to work with me and my group to investigate #MembraneTraffic in cells? There is a postdoc position available in my lab in Warwick, UK. https://tinyurl.com/roylePostDocJob I'm happy to answer any questions!

Hi everyone! For my first post/toot(?) I’m very excited to announce I’ve been appointed to senior lecturer! I feel incredibly supported and appreciated by my colleagues and wider department! Special thanks to @NathanJeffery and the EMB and HARC teams. 💀 #Anatomy #biomechanics

PhD position in Manchester, UK (BBSRC DTP): The evolution of nerves: understanding the roots of neurodegeneration – training in evolution biology, biochemistry, expansion or electron microscopy, cell culture, genetics, #scicomm – supervision: Prokop/Allan/Ronshaugen

Hi #ScienceMastodon #Introduction here! I study cell fate determination and growth regulation in #Drosophila for my #PhD. Currently wrapping up at UMass Boston, and moving on to the #postdoc position soon at UMass Chan Medical School to explore new areas in epigenetics. Delighted to be here!

It's probably time for an #introduction after lurking for a while.

I am a recent addition to the Nature Structural & Molecular Biology editorial team. I have very recently handed in my PhD - I used #cryoem and #cryoet to study #structuralbiology of viruses and vesicular trafficking.

Looking forward to engage with the #science community here!

Very cool study from the Garcia-Manyes Lab (TheCrick) exploring the previously dark side of the energy landscape of talin’s R3 domain using magnetic tweezers! Tapia-Rojo et al. observe new rare conformational states, beyond being binary, some of them capable of binding vinculin. These states may encode a new layer of mechanosensitivity in talin's R3 domain! #mechanobiology #biophysics

#introduction I'm a computer scientist, former professor now software engineer @ CZI. My interests are around image processing, software, and physical sciences. I am very into artificial life;" the study of life as it could have been."I was at formerly affiliated with Hampshire College, Brandeis University, Harvard Medical, HHMI Janelia Research Campus, UIdaho, DARPA, Max Delbrück Center, and Oak Ridge National Lab.

I've had some fun with tyssue (https://github.com/DamCB/tyssue). It is a 3D epithelium simulator, and I'm curious if folks other than @glyg on here are using it.

Hi! I am an Associate Professor and the head of the Laboratory of Cardiovascular Cell Biology at Vanderbilt School of Medicine (AKA The Burnette Lab). I also design clothing (mostly activewear) featuring photographs of cells taken through a microscope (Mag2Art.com).

Hello #ScienceMastodon ! I just made the Twitodon transition so a bit of #introduction: I'm a PhD Student interested in #DevelopmentalBiology, #Embryology and sometimes #StemCells and #Transcription. Looking forward to less promoted posts and more #AcademicToots.

Don't forget that Janelia's Computation & Theory area is looking for both [Senior] Group Leader candidates (https://www.janelia.org/our-research/our-labs/group-leaders) and Theory Fellows (https://www.janelia.org/our-research/overview/theory-fellows)! Are you working on interesting computational and theoretical approaches to address fundamental biological questions? Talk to us!

I thought I would share this image, which I took a while ago, but that I really like! This is a #pituitary gland where cells expressing a protein called proopiomelanocortin (POMC for short) have been coloured in green. You can see two groups of cells; a very packed band in the middle and some sparse cells on the sides. The first are called melanotrophs, and they are important in determining skin and fur colour. The sparse cells on the sides are called corticotrophs (and that's what I am studying at the moment!) and they are important for the response to #stress . They secrete an #hormone called ACTH which stimulates the production of the stress hormone cortisol from the adrenal gland. At the moment we are trying to understand what happens to this cells after the body is exposed to stress for a prolonged amount of time. #scicomm #biology #science #physiology #microscopy
