Tip 1: Use hashtags. There's no algorithm to suggest followers or shove posts into your feed in the hopes you follow someone.
Tip 2: Boost (re-post) toots liberally. *You* are the algorithm.
Tip 3: Use CW (content warnings / content wrappers) to discuss politics, the meta.
Tip 4: To create "threads", make the first post public and each reply "unlisted" to prevent clogging up your instance's feed.
Tip 5: Provide text descriptions, even just basic ones, when attaching photos or media.
Tip 6: Use the "report" features for moderating trolls so your admins can take action.
Hello folks, are there people here doing #python
and #deeplearning 🤖 for #biology? Comment below, I wanna follow more such people! 😀
Choice of friction coefficient deeply affects tissue behaviour in epithelial vertex models https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.11.07.515433
Birdsite refugees may have to learn protocols of symmetric follow of friends, or else they may get muted in Mastodon.
In 2008, the contrast with asymmetric follow was surfaced. #BenjaminEllis wrote:

@timoreilly responded:

First ever clinical trial underway of laboratory grown red blood cells being transfused into another person
If proved safe and effective, manufactured #blood #cells could in time revolutionize treatments for people with blood disorders such as sickle cell and rare blood types.

@glyg Not sure we should try to get narrow spaces. I'd rather be interested in a physics and biology instance.
I mean physics and biology broadly, including #biophysics, #microscopy, #softmatter, and so on...
We really need a #DevBio hashtag to bring us all together here.
This seems like a step improvement in 2-photon microscopy

Spencer has a nice thread on it on Twitter (I don't think he's on Mastodon yet?): https://mobile.twitter.com/Labrigger/status/1589471340356333568
Throwback to my first paper for my first contribution to #ScienceMastodon
We worked on the dynamics of vesicle reshaping and scission under osmotic shocks, including bursting and developing inner compartments.

Just arrived here as part of the #TwitterMigration, let's see how #science rocks in mstdn.science !
In order to properly start, here you have the actin cytoskeleton during #CellMigration

Hello, petite #Introduction ! Nicolas, ingénieur de recherche, je fourni aux chercheurs des outils numériques pour les aider sur leur problématiques.
J'étais plutôt #mécaflu, je suis passé du côté du discret (simu agents, DES), dans le cadre de mon poste au Centre de génie industriel d'Albi (pour encore 1/2 ans). Toujours saupoudré de #datascience. Je pense ensuite repartir sur de la physique.
Sinon, je cuisine beaucoup, je randonne et je fais de espresso très sympas ! J'ai aussi deux #chats

Biologist currently working at the Curie Institute.
I just finished my PhD on liver development and cell polarity in mice and recently started a post-doc on fly morphogenesis.
I'm mainly interested in microscopy, image analysis, biophysics and developmental biology.
