Hi @andrea-loreto.bsky.social, welcome to BlueSky!

Morale?

I have colleagues there who are leaving NIH for jobs in China, France, Canada, industry, or retiring early.

That’s real.

Great to see @maxstetina.bsky.social here.
Max did a very productive internship with us last year looking at evolutionary conservation of SARM1 and NMNAT2.

Job alert!

“Smile!”, they said, “Things could be worse.”

So I smiled …. and they did get worse.

I wrote an Article about the Netflix drama, Adolescence.

Not sure if to laugh or to cry, but worth hearing either way…

So sorry Bryan. Wishing you strength at this difficult time.

Amazing to welcome HRH The Duchess of Edinburgh, Patron of Race Against Dementia to our lab! An incredible opportunity to showcase our work with living human brain slice cultures and the importance of investing in dementia research. We are very lucky to have her support.

Next up: NASA to review heliocentric model of solar system

Perfect meme doesn’t exi….🤣🎯

When I was a postdoc people used to talk about the “brain drain” of our brightest scientists moving to the US. Now there is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the whole of Europe to put that into reverse…IF we fund science properly.

Postdoctoral by-fellowships at @churchillcol.bsky.social Closing date next Friday 14th March at 12:00 midday!

Grateful for all the people mobilizing across the US and the world for #StandUpForScience! Many reasons motivating this movement, but yesterday as I was reviewing undergrads applications for summer internships, I was reminded of how important this is for the next generation of scientists.

Chalfie: “we should recruit those who have traditionally been excluded [into science]. We need their intelligence and perspective. I strongly believe in DEI” #standupforscience2025 NYC

Making our voices heard! Keep at it y’all! 🧪🧠👩‍🔬🫶

Hi @mauramalpetti.bsky.social Great to connect on BlueSky!

Can I tempt some young minds to consider Old York for a PhD?

Some days left to apply.
Open to applicants WORLDWIDE 🌎.

Hard agree. The integrity of the @royalsociety.org is worth immeasurably more in the long run than any short-term damage from expelling him.

Metabolic Dysfunction in Glaucoma: From Bench to Bedside (and Back Again) - Glaucoma Today A review of nicotinamide treatment for neuroprotection.

Opinion | Will They Come for PubMed Next? Here's what we lose if the administration takes away this invaluable resource

Whatever the reasons for today's PubMed outages, it may be living on borrowed time in its present form. This would be like burning the great library of Alexandria.
"Will They Come for PubMed Next?"

We will be standing up in South Carolina! See y’all at the state house in Columbia from 12-4pm.

This is not a time to be silent and to sit back and watch the destruction. I’m sure going to do whatever I can to fight for the future and fight for my trainees futures.

Yes I noticed your stance on this and share your views. In fact the greed and obsession with power are not unrelated to yesterday’s incident even if on a totally different scale.

It’s sick! This continent has not forgotten where that leads even if Trump and his opportunist ‘friends’ think an ocean will keep them safe - until it doesn’t!

I am taking the decision today not to attend this year’s @sfn.org meeting in protest at the USA’s treatment of the rest of the world (except Russia!) and especially Ukraine. The USA cannot succeed alone in science, economics, war or anything else and needs to learn this fast.

Ubiquitin is directly linked via an ester to protein-conjugated mono-ADP-ribose | The EMBO Journal imageimageCertain E3 ligases have been found to ubiquitylate hydroxyl groups on free NAD+ and ADP-ribose in vitro, but the in vivo occurrence of this dual post-translational modification has remained ...

I'm super excited to share our study in collaboration with @jnpruneda.bsky.social, published today in @embojournal.org! We show that PARPs are modified with a non-canonical ester-linked mono-ADP-ribosylated ubiquitin species for the first time in cells: www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....
