#theconferencetoendallconferences Wonderful news for all ursophobic participants of the Woodstock of Biology meeting. Bohemia remains bear-free country since November 14, 1856.

First half of #MtLemmon. This is a very long climb and we started late. The heat at the bottom drained everything out of me. The second half of this half was pure suffering, will and survival. I will try to finish the job tomorrow. It’s beautiful

We continue working on the plans for the "Woodstock of Bioloy 2 & Night science in Prague" meeting and if you don't sign up you're totally crazy. A once in a life time opportunity and it'll be sold out soon. Go to the website and sign up now before it's too late!

Equipped for #Lemon

We got castles!

tips & tricks #theconferencetoendallconferences Say you are into castles & chateaux and arrive earlier or have nothing to do on 13th. The obvious one is the Prague Castle (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prague_...). It's beautiful but expect tons of tourists. Especially if you want to see the Golden Lane.

Saying goodbye to San Diego and the #flymeeting. It was an honour to present for such a huge audience full of experts on #flystuffthatmatters and meeting old and new friends. Now onto a different adventure - Mt. Lemon, Tucson Arizona. 🚴‍♀️💪🤠

Everybody is busy preparing the last presentation and exam before the drinks that will conclude the course. I cannot resist sharing pictures of people doing microscopy, in the hope it will 1/ brighten your timeline 2/ convince you to do microscopy 3/ attend the next course 👇

Pavel Tomancak asks everyone who uses FIJI in the crowd to stand ... and dammit, 90% of the crowd stood. What a testament to the power of such tools. #DROS25

Great talk this morning by @paveltomancak.bsky.social at #Dros25 . So much great science!

Eric Lai rocking the fly meeting with his #jasperrine band. That’s the new President of the flyboard. A President America can be proud of! 🤘

Excellent set of guidelines for anyone developing software for life scientists, from @jwpylvanainen.bsky.social, @lankylaste.bsky.social and @guijacquemet.bsky.social journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

Awwww yeah, check this out: snowflake yeast making their cover debut! www.nature.com/nature/volum... We have two papers in this issue: 1) A paper examining whole genome duplication in the MuLTEE 2) A review of long-term experiments in evolutionary biology led by @jameststroud.bsky.social 🧪

Don't miss the one and only #EricLai

Today’s Sip of Science is all about microscopy! Incredible talks by the talented folks from CELLIM — so inspiring to see what’s possible under the microscope. Amazing stuff! #Science #Microscopy #CELLIM #SipOfScience

At this year’s AMPER fair, the research team led by Petr Neugebauer from CEITEC @vut.cz are presenting the revolutionary FRASCAN II spectrometer, an electron spin resonance spectrometer with a frequency of 329 GHz.The instrument was awarded it the prestigious AMPER Gold Award 🏆 Read more - below.

Another great TED-style talk at @ceitec.eu Masaryk University! Our "Sip of Science" lectures not only show what goes on in the labs but also teach junior scientists how to talk about science to a diverse audience. Toay's hands-on experience by Jakub from Cellular Imaging lab (CELLIM) was top!

Identifying functional motifs in disordered regions is challenging. We gave it a try. Check out SHARK-capture, an alignment-free method to detect SLiMs. Congrats Chi Fung Willis Chow @swlenz.bsky.social et al. @mpi-cbg.de @csbdresden.bsky.social @poldresden.bsky.social doi.org/10.1002/pro....

I will have to say it. Compared to the good old #sciTwitter - a dog died here. #grumpyoldman. Lonely.

We’ll open two new departments in Heilbronn! The Dieter Schwarz Foundation provides funding for an initiative by our institute aiming to translate basic research into applications. MPG president P. Cramer & DSS CEO R. Geilsdörfer just signed the contracts. 📷: Nico Kurth www.mr.mpg.de/14641433/new...

random request: does anyone in san diego have a mini-hdmi to usb-c cable i could borrow? or, have a video projector i could connect to a laptop? please forward to any SD peeps!

Well. Nice. #SanDiego. Calm, before the #Drosophila storm. Nursing a jet lag with a decent IPA. Expensive though…

A most unusual Berlin weekend... Award ceremony @einsteinberlin.bsky.social price - for data visualization of scientific images 🧪 📊 with @jamessaenz.bsky.social 📷 S.Gabsch

Symposium on ‘Enhancer Sequences’ at beautiful @collegedefrance.bsky.social in Paris, by April 11th. Open and free, no registration. Come to relax listening to facts #TherapeuticEffects #VillageGauloix Final programme below. Tell your friends! 🙏🤘

How does gene regulation shape brain evolution? Our new preprint dives into this question in the context of mammalian cerebellum development! rb.gy/dbcxjz Led by @ioansarr.bsky.social, @marisepp.bsky.social and @tyamadat.bsky.social, in collaboration with @steinaerts.bsky.social

This looks like a fantastic meeting. Besides the usual suspects, there are also some new names. Kudos to the organizers!

We would like to thank the awardees, speakers, moderators, and guests for the wonderful evening at the 2024 #EinsteinFoundationAward ceremony! @kaiwegner.bsky.social @regberlin.bsky.social @elisabethbik.bsky.social @pubpeer.com @helenajambor.bsky.social @chrischmied.bsky.social

Seems like we have a new logo. #theconferencetoendallconferences
