The third presentation of our workshop on #reproducibility in #CancerBiology was by Frédéric de Lamotte, from the INRAE in Montpellier, discussing #OpenScience, it's challenges and how it relates to reproducibility in Biology.

Short thread👇

People who are at high risk of developing severe illness if they contract #Covid are being offered spring booster shots in Canada and the UK. Will the US follow suit? Not clear, but it's looking like probably not.

Do you teach workshops or other short-format training & are interested in some recommendations to help make them more inclusive and effective?

Our Banbury working group put some ideas together into "The Bicycle Principles" which prioritizes evidenced-based teaching, inclusiveness, & equity, & the ability to scale, share, & sustain short format workshops.

Check out the preprint & thanks to everyone who put these together especially Jason Williams & Rochelle Tractenberg!

Sai um #Manguel para o artigo do João Pedro George na

"The UK is getting “clobbered” by the US and China, says Nightingale, and being outshone by smaller nations such as Singapore, Switzerland and Denmark."

On the one hand, Singapore, Switzerland and Denmark pay their academics a salary commensurate with the many years of necessary training, a life dedicated to the fullest to the job, and the outsized impact of the educational sector's output on the economy. The UK, on the other hand, doesn't. How can anyone be surprised.

An Illustrated Tree

by Roberto
From the fun­da­men­tal con­cepts of bio­lo­gy, the fact that all or­gan­isms now alive share a com­mon an­ces­tor (LUCA) ranks as one of my fa­vo­rites. When I pause to con­si­der that, des­pite four bil­lion years of evo­lu­tion and di­ver­gence, my ri­bo­so­mal RNA shares some stret­ches of se­quence iden­ti­ty with all other au­to­no­mous or­gan­isms, I still get goose bumps...
