I’ll be in DC March 7th at the StandUpForScience rally. See you there! If you can’t make it to DC there will be a StandUpForScience rally in a city near you. @standupforscience.bsky.social

Anyone else use 'please' and 'thank you' when entering AI prompts? I hope my life will be spared when AI takes over...

Some study sections seemed to have happened this week - one ND (R01) and a 7%ile (R21). But are June council meetings going to be on?

4 papers submitted - a busy start to the year. Let's hope 2025 won't be the year of rejections 😁

New preprint from the lab just posted to bioRxiv. Our first foray into antisense RNAs, led by postdoc Manon Chadourne, with implications for mRNA translation. Great collab with Alex Jaeger and his lab!

We are recruiting a postdoc to join our team (myself, Boris Bastian, and Iwei Yeh) at UCSF to develop a pre-cancer atlas of skin cancer -- part of the Human Tumor Atlas Network (#HTAN). #CancerEvolution #Bioinformatics. Interested? Email resume and cover letter to me.

November has been busy, but I'm pleased to finally share our recent paper in Cancer Research: PHGDH Induction by MAPK is Essential for Melanoma Formation and Creates an Actionable Metabolic Vulnerability aacrjournals.org/cancerres/ar... Congrats to grad student Neel! A short 🧵 of what we found.

We are hiring! We are looking for a Project Scientist to be in charge of the day-to-day operation of our tumor organoid pipeline. Come join our team of rare cancer aficionados looking to leverage organoids for functional precision medicine. Apply by November 24th! recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF09960

hey everyone! i made a list of some useful starter packs (primarily biology/earth sciences with a few bonus things thrown in) to share with friends who have joined bsky in the last week and thought it may be useful for some people here too! 🌍🧪 #SciSky #BioSky docs.google.com/document/d/1...

🚨 Update for #RNA science fans: I checked on #Bsky registry, and here is a 'condensate' (😆) of all #RNA #RNAsky starter packs so far: 1. General RNA biology #1 go.bsky.app/RN6HnZp

Thought all would be better here but alas, proofs are still due back in 48hrs

Here's the #Cancer #Research #2 starter pack 🤩 Researchers, oncologists, patient advocates & more -working across all aspects of cancer research and treatment 🧪🔬⚕️ I also tried to give some exposure to #PhD #students & #postdocs - randomly picked from followers of me or my lab! go.bsky.app/6EcjWNA
