Extracellular vesicle heterogeneity through the lens of multiomics Silva and colleagues refine an EV isolation method to optimize recovery of cancer-derived large oncosomes (LOs). This approach enables high-yield profiling by mass spectrometry and bulk/single-LO RNA-...

Excited to share this new work exploring EV heterogeneity! It was amazing to be a part of this international team!

Congratulations to first author, Taylon Silva! 🎉

This is a two year, paid program (with benefits!). It is ideal for someone who would like to go to graduate or medical school.

It was wonderful to develop the curriculum for this program (travel! research! clinical experiences!) and I can't wait to see who applies (applications due 4/18/25).

Flesch–Kincaid readability tests - Wikipedia

I target a score between 50 and 70 on Flesch-Kincaid readability tests. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flesch%...

I'd love to know if other folks use this (or what else they use to make sure they hit the right level).

Flesch Kincaid Calculator | Good Calculators This Flesch Kincaid Calculator can be used to show how readable your text is by providing a Flesch Readability Ease score and the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level score

I typically share this text readability calculator with folks I'm mentoring for grant writing. I use it frequently to make sure my layperson abstracts or summaries read at the right level.

Sharing it here in case it is helpful for others. goodcalculators.com/flesch-kinca...

Thanks for highlighting our work, @atranscendedman.bsky.social!

Will share more soon on how this work came about (and how we had to challenge many conventions, such as 'there are no viral particles in blood'). Done in partnership with @gmboland.bsky.social. Extra thanks to @adarshc.bsky.social

Research and personal life collided when my friend shared that her daughter Leah was battling Medulloblastoma.
Despite the past few weeks being very difficult, Leah created this video. They are wanting to see how many views Leah can get before Christmas! Please share

Image of a magna tile maze set up on the floor, with a pink robotic hamster ready working its way through

Found this downstairs today and started to wonder if perhaps I'm bringing my 7 year old to lab too often.
