Cancer cells overcome stress with new microprotein uncovered by scientists at SciLifeLab The researchers have tested more than 11,000 potential microproteins to identify which affect cell survival during stress, something that could lead to new therapies. Researchers in the Elsässer, Piaz...

“#Microproteins like PIPPI may turn out to be important regulators of how cells respond to stress, and could offer new clues for understanding disease mechanisms,” says @simonelsasser.bsky.social, Group Leader at SciLifeLab and @ki.se ↓🧪

Because of the nice Google Doodle I was drawn into a conversation with AI about base pairing...

... (think causation vs correlation, replicate number and statistical support). We should not feel urged to make extraordinary claims to land a high 'originality' score, instead AI should be an instrument that can match the text with that the data really allows to claim and flag overinterpretation.

This is very cool @odedrechavi.bsky.social. Do I understand correctly that it works with the text of the manuscript, not with figures or data? My concern with current production rate is that papers may be written skilfully and claims are clear, but they are not adequately supported by the data...

Deeply grateful to @carlzeissstiftung.bsky.social, I'm very much looking forward to realising this ambitious, long term project with your support. An thank you for the little CARL ZEISS I received with my mail today, he's already on top of his first experiments in our lab at @uni-freiburg.de 😀

Congratulations Koichi Sato and @puckknipscheer.bsky.social for a biochemistry tour de force! Sooo many in vitro experiments, pinning down step by step a mechanism to resolve G4 structures. We used KOs and quantitative G4 CUT&Tag to corroborate mechanism in mouse ESC.

Do you sometimes feel research is 🎶 on step forward and two steps back 🎶? Well the good thing about a marathon is that no matter how slow you go, you are always getting closer to the finish line 😅. #stockholmmarathon ✌️

We are looking for MSc students interested in joining us for a bioinformatics thesis project. The task is to analyze existing epigenomics datasets, explore data from different technical and biological angles, generate reproducible code and figures to be incorporated into manuscripts #jobalert
