@ucsandiego.bsky.social newest faculty member @kolade-adebowale.bsky.social sharing the culmination of his work and the vision of his lab #Afrobiotech

Explore this Starter Pack 🚀 with researchers, engineers, and enthusiasts passionate about #Biopolymers & #Biomaterials in nanoscience, sustainable materials, 3D bioprinting, regenerative medicine, and related fields. 🔗 DM/comment/tag to self-nominate or suggest others! go.bsky.app/HCEddD2

"Not only does Bennu contain all 5 of the nucleobases that form DNA and RNA on Earth and 14 of the 20 amino acids found in known proteins, the asteroid’s amino acids hold a surprise… nearly equal amounts of these structures and their ‘right-handed’, mirror-image forms."

Excited for the 2025 GRS/C Physical Science of Cancer kick-off in Pomona, CA soon with all the exciting science. Thanks to GRC Co-Chairs Kandice Tanner, Erik Sahai, and my GRS Co-Chair Gabrielle Grifno. Please tag your favorite moments with #POC_GRC_2025! Safe travels everyone.

Because you have nothing else to worry about, remember that, starting May 25, you will have to use SciENcv to generate your biosketch for any NIH application. LINK here: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sciencv/

Applications are still being accepted for the Summer 2025 REU, UCSD-BRIDGE @ UC San Diego! The deadline is February 11. More details below 👇.

ATP acts as i) cellular energy currency, ii) danger signal, & much more ATP induces fast migration of leukocytes, w depends on P2X7, Panx1 channels, & CaMKII, w leads to actin cytoskeleton (cyan) changes www.science.org/doi/full/10.... @focalplane.bsky.social #CellMigration #fluorescencefriday 🧪🔬

We've a postdoc opening for our lab at the Broad: Cambridge MA! Must have experience in toxicology + data science Work on the wonderful OASIS dataset we are producing... Cell Painting, transcriptomics, proteomics in various liver cell and tissue models! broad.io/mlcbpostdoc

It's time 🙃!! The soon-to-be-open Bomba-Warczak Lab at UPenn is HIRING postdocs! If you're interested in mitochondria, proteomics, neurons and/or oocytes, and want to join a young & vibrant lab in a vibrant city - apply 👉 www.bombawarczaklab.com/people/now-h... #TeamMassSpec #mitochondria

Happy to share our Current Opinion by @mattjwalker.bsky.social and @delphe.bsky.social🧪 We review how advances in dynamic #hydrogel based #mechanobiology platforms are critical to understand disease progression in cancer and fibrosis @elsevierconnect.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

My latest Research Highlight is now online @natrevmcb.bsky.social! The Brangwynne lab uncovers how chromatin heterogeneity influences condensate formation during #CellMigration, revealing intriguing insights into nuclear mechanics. 🔗 go.nature.com/3ZpwGH7 OG Paper: go.nature.com/3Baxpnn

Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪

Many tx studies (Mujal... Azizi…)failed to validate M1/M2 signatures in vivo. Many also suspected that calling cells bearing ‘prototypical M2’ genes ‘‘immunosuppressive’ was simplistic + incorrect. Nonetheless many (us too!) leaned on the simplification. Arja addresses the reality head on…thnx JEM

Here is a brief summary of academic journals and news account. Please help me add more accounts to this list! go.bsky.app/hCfhqn

I didn't find a specific mechanotransduction starter pack, so I open one myself😊. There are still a lot of people to be added, but it's late, so please drop me a message or post here to nominate yourself for the Mechanotransduction community. go.bsky.app/2PXf5SC

We are happy to report that our journals and community sites now have Bluesky accounts. Follow them at: @dev-journal.bsky.social @jcellsci.bsky.social @jexpbiol.bsky.social @dmmjournal.bsky.social @biologyopen.bsky.social @the-node.bsky.social @prelights.bsky.social @focalplane.bsky.social

Excited to present our research to understand how monocytes move through complex mechanical environments at the "Mass General Brigham Engineering in Medicine Seminar Series" @ 4 p.m. EST tomorrow (Nov. 21). More details are in the attached flyer.

I started a list of MOSAIC scholars to help find and support each other. I'm sure I've missed many people, lmk if you want to be added! go.bsky.app/9Ui711k
