BIG news: Jason Chin is leaving the Division of Protein & Nucleic Acid Chemistry of @mrclmb.bsky.social to spend yet another billionaire's ££ in Oxford. This will create a gap that will need filling! So, if you're thinking of making a move, now is the time to reach out! www.eit.org/news/profess...

I liked this (slightly optimistic) comment on university bureaucracy: "With 56 departments, 43 colleges and halls, 43 institutes and 78 committees of the Council of the University alone we will make mistakes, but we will never all make the same mistake at the same time."

I am absolutely gutted to be moving away from @dev-journal.bsky.social & its wonderful community. I'll still be focussing on Development for the next few months, & I'll still be very involved in the journal in my new job, but I'm really going to miss hanging out with you all at #devbio meetings!

A lot is happening in US science. Bluesky is the best place to stay up the rolling political crisis in America that is crushing US science. It's also a good place to learn what we all can do. We have a starter pack for this. Please send your colleagues here too. 🧪 go.bsky.app/2K6jTi5

If you're a non-UK scientist who wants to come to the UK for a postdoc, this year's Newton Fellowships are now open. You'll need a lab to host you (which could be me, but truly, could be any PI, so get in touch with someone you'd like to work with!) royalsociety.org/grants/newto...

Reminder that @europepmc.org is a mirror of Pubmed with better search and that it indexes all bioRxiv preprints (as well as ResearchSquare), not just the ones funded by NIH like chauvinist Pubmed
