Hey folks! I got a tattoo of my beloved PIEZO ion channel on my arm! Now I can show how they activate (flatten) under pressure by flexing—Will add a bit of performance art to my science talks 🧪🧠.

Today on #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience, I’m reflecting on where I’m at. Pausing and slowing things down to raise a family takes its toll on an academic career in so many invisible ways, but it pushes me to work harder. This little babe (me!) knows it’s worth it.

What are lumens and how do forces control tissue form and fate through lumen size? Join me, @dhirajindana.bsky.social, in this short thread to explore this question through some fascinating papers.

Extremely happy for our team led by @tmem-samuel.bsky.social to have secured an NHMRC Ideas Grant, investigating how distinct ECM structures can influence cancer growth and metastasis. But, more support needed for EMCR apps to foster next gen of emerging leaders. www.unisa.edu.au/media-centre...

If your #NHMRC ideas grant was unsuccessful and you have a story to share about the impact of this on your #biomedicalresearch, career, team - get in touch. Federal DOH have asked #NARF to collect stories of impact of low funding. #SaveOzScience #DiscoveriesNeedDollars #EMCRs
