Scientists are now organizing events, called Stand Up for Science, on 7 March in Washington, D.C., and state capitals.

So far, they have attracted more than 100 volunteers from some 30 states who are hoping to rally support for research as a public good. scim.ag/4328LAD

Research out of York University has made history as the first to document that muscle weakness precedes muscle wasting in cancer – a groundbreaking discovery that presents new possibilities for early detection and treatment of the disease.

Oh my. This is just gorgeous from Misha Kudryashev's lab (I don't think he's here yet?). Love to see it. V ATPase resolved directly in synaptic vesicles 🀀 Lots of other neat observations in there also. Congrats to all involved! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
