Hello! #introduction I'm a San Diego-based science writer with La Jolla Institute for Immunology. Working on immunology-related blog posts, press releases, features articles and more. I'm interested in #biology, #virology, #autoimmunity, #CancerResearch, #immunotherapy #PostdocLife, etc.
In my personal life, I'm passionate about #SciComm, #BackyardPoultry, #WomenInSTEM, and San Diego eateries!

Awesome to see the #scicomm posts on here! Any other #SanDiego #science writers making their way to Mastodon—or other members of the National Association of Science Writers? #NASW #sciencecommunications
Hello #ScienceMastodon!
I'm a microscopist and image analyst at the BIOP imaging center at EPFL in Switzerland.
I'll be sharing mostly nerd stuff about #ImageJ/#FijiSc. Can't wait to see if the scientific mastodon community takes off!
So, let's get serious: can we share videos here? Let's find out:
This looks interesting for people who use #LaTeX, #Overleaf or work in sciences
Introducing Overleaf Labs
https://www.overleaf.com/blog/introducing-overleaf-labs
I don't work for overleaf I just use the platform, and really recommend it.
To the newcomers to Mastodon and the Fediverse:
When you ask to follow someone that doesn't accept followers automatically, please have your profile filled out and some posts in your feed by you. I'm not going to follow anyone that hasn't taken the time to get their feet wet and write some posts, so I can know what you're about.
#DogsOfMastodon this is my little rescue dog, Folly. She likes to help me work and sees herself as a future bioinformatician 🤔🐶
Now that I have the opportunity, let me #introduce our quality-diversity #compchem algorithm to Mastadon. It's based on @janhjensen 's generative algorithm. We avoid stagnation issues, and illuminates opportunities across chemical space, and outperforms #deeplearning approaches!

Not sure if there are any #TB folk here yet but if so "hi"👋 Looking for #TB, #Globalhealth accounts to follow/like or whatever the term is here! Please share recommendations
Holy hell the twitter exodus is **still** accelerating. The influx of new users is up about 33% from yesterday, our biggest day so far. We are now seeing over 1,300 new users every day on QOTO!
@gaymanifold wait are you seeing the avrxiv posts int he main feed without following too? It is supposed to be silenced.
@whynot I saw your report about the bot showing in your feed. That should **not** be the case. The bot is silenced by default and can only be seen if you subscribe or follow it. Is it possible you subscribed?
The nice thing about Twitter self immolating is that folks who would otherwise never even look at alternative platforms seem to be kicking the tires and trying to make things work on other sites. Really helps with the chicken/egg issue. If Twitter -> Mastodon works, no reason to think there isn’t hope for Facebook -> Diaspora (or similar). At that point, only thing left to do would be to make friends to connect with. Exciting days ahead!
@freemo henceforth known to me as Shawn Bawn
@freemo I opened ticket behind qoto.org to remove it from blacklist at https://github.com/hachyderm/hack/issues/8#issue-1438976763 (don't know if it will work, but mayby will) In case of questions it will be good sth more involved with server look at it.
Beautiful blog post reviewing the cognitive capacity of multiple animal species. Their work focuses on #animalwelfare and #cognition. #cognitivescience #behavior #physiology

#introduction I'm a behavioral #neuroscientist working in #marketresearch. I use a combination of psychological, neuroscientific, and traditional market #research tools to better understand #consumer behavior. Board member for #actiondesignnetwork and #SSP (#societyforsensoryprofessionals), I'm busy trying to make sure the science is right in industry research.
