Join us to hear Roy Maute, Co-Founder/CEO, Pheast Therapeutics, "Targeting "Don't Eat Me" Signals for Macrophage-Mediated Cancer Therapy" Tue 9/30 5-7 pm in San Carlos. www.biosf.org -the BioScience Forum- to register. #biotech #drugdevelopment #immunology #CD24 #cancer @pheast.bsky.social

Cool and compelling demo from Kanya Rajangam, MD, PhD, President, Head of R&D, CMO, @sentibio.bsky.social showing power of Logic Gated CAR NK cells approach to target cancer cells and leave healthy cells to thrive #gene_circuits #off_the_shelf #BioscienceForum biosf.org

Photo of me on stage in collared shirt open to show protect trans kids tshirt. I’ve got my arms spread like I’m holding two things apart and behind me on screen is a page from a comic I made talking about studying math and art and being referred to as smart and talented respectively…

Ha - I love this photo! From the opening to my keynote at confia in villa do Conde Portugal today - I’m talking about showing how the division between smart and talented is harmful and false (in regards to me studying mathematics & being an art maker). A great gathering all around! confia.ipca.pt

Cannot complain about blue skies welcoming #SFSU2025 #graduates to #OracleParkSF. Congratulations to the #ClassOf2025! What a glorious day to celebrate! @calstate.bsky.social #SFSU

7 rows of SFSU grads seated on chairs in the Gym. The students are wearing Purple regalia and caps, with many wearing colorful beads and stoles. Beyond the students, family and friends are seated on the bleachers.

Expansion of a neural crest gene signature following ectopic MYCN expression in sympathoadrenal lineage cells in vivo Neural crest cells (NCC) are multipotent migratory stem cells that originate from the neural tube during early vertebrate embryogenesis. NCCs give rise to a variety of cell types within the developing...

This work reveals some of the earliest molecular consequences of MYCN oncogene overexpression in a developmental cell lineage in vivo, the sympathetic nervous system progenitors. Let me know what you think, the implications of this study are numerous! dx.plos.org/10.1371/jour...

Chinese-American woman dressed in T-shirt and green overalls is standing in middle of stage singing into a hand-held microphone and wearing a large flat orange carrot, perhaps made of cardboard and cloth. Around the stage there are small stacks of canned food, as well as another large vegetable/fruit - a large purple eggplant (probably cardboard/cloth). Just backstage of the performer are two tables similarly decorated with long strands of reflective fringe, and they also have some stacks of canned food on them. On the back wall of the stage is a projection screen that is completely black with one phrase on it "So much invisible labor" written in mostly green color text...except that "abor" is in white. To the left and right of the screen are posted signs including: "USDA," "NO HOT FOOD WITH EBT," "U.S.D.A 25¢ FOOD STAMP PROGRAM," "TOPS ALL FOODS FOOD STAMP CREDIT 10c"

Thank you @kristinawong.bsky.social & #AA_CARES #SFSU for yesterday's #FOODBANKINFLUENCER performance @ McKenna Theatre. Amazing #solo #karaoke #musical. Brilliant parody lyrics! Learned some history & politics of food banks - Who knew? And bonus: #AuntieSewingSquad in the house!!

Today’s @sfstatebio.bsky.social seminar with a “Mechanic in the house” #ShannonYan #StanfordBiology asking a big question: how does a cell physically divide? Amazing to see #mitotic membrane tension profiles generated by pulling at membrane with #optical_tweezers #optical_laser_trap #optogenetics

Do baby poop #microbiomes correlate with higher risk for allergies & #asthma in early childhood? #SusanLynch #ucsfmicrobiome has evidence that microbiota products can promote #allergic #inflammation in mouse model! #intergenerational #12,13-diHOME #epigenetics #siolta @sfstatebio.bsky.social seminar

New on Science Wise 🎙️
Dr. Barbara Wakimoto went from a curious kid on an Arizona farm to a pioneering scientist at the University of Washington. She opens up about her roots, resilience, and the realities of academic life.

Who started out in a pharmacology lab before joining a PhD program? Thanks to Criminalist Isha T.S. Brown, Dr. Nour Al-muhtasib #USF, Dr. Kenisha A Puckett @stanford.edu, Dr. Karine Gibbs @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social for sharing stories & wisdom with our eager @sfstatebio.bsky.social students!!

Awesome Women of Color in Science Panel hosted by Black Excellence in #STEM @ #SFSU for today’s seminar! Who pivoted to stem cell research after 12 years in STEM education? Who was excited about forensics after a high school experience? Who was 16 yrs old viewing hanta virus in a microbiology lab?..

Congratulations to future @sfstatebio.bsky.social students attending #ExploreSFState today! Welcome to #SFSU!! Happy to highlight our microbiology labs, organismal bio labs, neuroscience labs, seawater core facility, human anatomy lab, and greenhouse!!

Welcome back to @sfstatebio.bsky.social alum Fred Santana (Burrus Lab) as today’s seminar speaker sharing progress on #TRIB2 in #melanoma from #JuraLab #UCSF-CVRI. Learning about #pseudokinases! Btw, there are 3 human #tribbles genes #LiveLongAndProsper @calstate.bsky.social

Intrigued by concept of #circadian control of #immunity shared by #CateraWilder #UCSFSchoolOfPharmacy @sfstatebio.bsky.social seminar. I know these are cells on a plate, but if I’m exposed to a pathogen in the AM vs in the PM, could I have different immunity or #inflammation responses? #wearable

Stand up for science and against pseudoscience. Locally at SF Civic Center Plaza and Sacramento at the State Capitol. #science #biotechnology #climatechange

Great images to start a mitotic poles/spindle talk from Nathan Cho @dumontlabucsf.bsky.social @ucsfmedicine.bsky.social referencing building the Golden Gate Bridge, then sharing about dissecting #NuMA to suss out it’s role in protecting the mitotic poles @sfstatebio.bsky.social

Learning from Philip Tagari @insitro.bsky.social how #machinelearning in their approach for #MASLD (formerly #NASH) studies leads to “unpacking the landscape of obesity” & learning that fructose is converted to lipid droplets via de novo lipogenesis in liver cells.
