Main point is to be careful, particularly if the tree is hollow. Otherwise up to you to decide how much of an eyesore/you value that fence 😅

If no structures around it could damage, let Nature do the job. Sick trees can break in the weirdest way and could turn a seemingly easy chainsaw job into a deadly situation.

"He said he became convinced the peptides weren’t the cause of the severe reactions after plugging everything he knows about the incident into an artificial intelligence app, which he said gave him a 57-page report that “basically says that it is impossible it was the peptides.”

The "reproducibility crisis" in science constantly makes headlines. Repro efforts are often limited. What if you could assess reproducibility of an entire field?

That's what @brunolemaitre.bsky.social et al. have done. Fly immunity is highly replicable & offers lessons for #metascience

Social determinants of health and epigenetic clocks: Meta-analysis of 140 studies Social determinants of health are social factors that affect health and survival. Two of the most powerful social determinants are socioeconomic status (SES) and race/ethnicity; people with lower SES ...

Astrocytes have long been conceived as passive support player cells in the brain. But today @science.org (via 3 reports) they got a big upgrade for their active role in neuromodulation and control of brain function

(I took a 6 months vacation between PhD and postdoc and that was one of the most formative experience of my adult life. I still knew how to pipet once back 🤙)

Here it sounds like an equivalence of "6 month gap on CV = lazy". Fair when you have so much applications you need to triage somehow. But the rationale and effectiveness of this approach remains questionable.

Compared to my home country (France) I always admired the way Americans navigate their education/professional path. In and out of college with decades in between, switch fields...all things forbidden in France. No re-entry.

My idea of such gaps is that they are often "life happens": taking over a caretaker role or what. Nothing that speaks about competence (or lack thereof) in the workplace, ultimately none of my business, but most importantly a critical equity mater.

I'm curious why an "easy discard" and what exactly does a gap automatically implies to a recruiter?

Great illustration of where the money goes 👌

That's too bad, another time then. Life's been good despite le putain de bordel ambiant 😅

Flying through SF? I'd love to buy you a drink if you're around!

I have not used personally (never needed to maintain my cells for more than an hour under the scope) so can't speak from experience. But I'd use it as imaging media: equilibrate temp/CO2 and replace culture media before imaging.

I'd reach out directly to Cedric (another Frenchie) who made BrainPhys, but what I've seen/been told looks like your best solution.

Angertainment is a great way to describe the emotional experience most social media platforms are optimizing for.

We have Kiwi berries here in Cali, season is very short but you might love them! Eaten like grapes 😄

Allez champagne 🍾!!! Bye bye le borgne 🤩

Where to put the $ sign in excel so it does not change the selected column is my equivalent of figuring out which side to insert the USB. Never on first try.
