Fitzsimons Innovation Community strives to expand hub for science and healthcare

“These companies don’t have a lot of money, and they really need that support of people who are helping them start the company, get to (clinical) trials, and see if their drugs or their life-saving technology can actually work.” – Kelly Brough

"Conan the Bacterium" can withstand radiation that could kill a human. Scientists say they’ve found its secret weapon.

From @CNN: "A type of bacteria called Deinococcus radiodurans can withstand radiation doses 28,000 times greater than those that would kill a human being — and the secret to its success is rooted in an antioxidant."

PhD project in #OpenScience, please boost Deadline 7 Jan.

Join the BioRDM team at #EdinburghUniversity to study Electronic Lab Notebooks in #BioScience! We work alongside bench biologists 'at the coalface'. This PhD will analyse how our colleagues use ELNs, how we and they together can improve their #metadata, and whether using an ELN really leads to more or FAIRer data sharing.

Fuding is competitive, for non-UK citizens.

This is a reminder for those interested in #bioscience, #biotech, #biopharma, etc., about an excellent #networking event next week. Amrita Madabushi has been immersed in this area for quite some time, and, through EmpowerBio, she offers outstanding support and opportunities for those trying to learn more or increase their network.

The BioNavigators website has great #blog posts by Hannah LaMond, Sabrina Daglish, and Madeline Valentine. These posts do a wonderful job of discussing some hurdles in #STEM and #GraduateSchool. This time, though, we tried something different. We asked ChatGPT-3.5 to write about AI's uses, challenges, and ethics in #bioscience. Check out the post and let us know what you think.

Stay tuned for more job updates, podcasts, and blog posts (even one by Microsoft Copilot!).

If you're a #doctor or a related #health or #healthcare profession, consider following the group@medmastodon@a.gup.p for news, etc.
The group could use more followers to become more effective. And use #MedMastodon in posts too for wider reach in that area. Also #IDmastodon for infectious #diseases.

@domhenri Wow, those numbers depressing.

Figure 3 should scare everyone who uses antibodies (and hopefully spur them to sanity-check their stainings with additional techniques).

A while ago, Biosciences at Hull started including photos and full names of scientists we cite on lecture slides -- as students make (incorrect) assumptions from surnames and initials.

Now Hubbard, K., Henri, D, and Coates, K. ( ), have published the results.

It's an initiative that's shown some impact on these assumptions, and highlighting the actual diversity of the scientific community to students.

Clearly, there is still much to learn about this corner of the dark genome defined by HEATR5 proteins and their co-factors.
