@schoppik Foundation will close IGC and move funding and some groups to the biomedical Molecular Medicine Institute of Lisbon University - which coincidentally is where the new Foundation President and the board member handling this came from (Vice Dean and Dean, respectively, per the piece you cannot open).
@naturemedicine #Cancerbiology Both tumor immune infiltration and response to treatment are differentially associated with the subtype of #breastcancer according to the concordant or discordant character of the contralateral tumor. Pairs of tumors from different subtypes of breast cancers should be considered as singular entities before primary systemic treatment is considered, as observed responses might deviate from well-known profiles of response to #chemotherapy.
@schoppik Yes, especially because they would be dumping a basic science institute in favor of 'translational' research
You know, if our study of #COVID19 causes us to realize many other viruses also damage our heart, that is an argument for MORE masking, not less. The reaction shouldn't be, “I guess COVID risks are like other viruses,” but “if all viruses are dangerous to our hearts, we need more caution and protection.”
“Growing evidence supports the involvement of other viral infections in the development of arrhythmia.”

Now there are two of them. If the lettuce joins the rebellion, this could get ugly (-ier).
Very excited to announce that we will soon present the results of the Journal Observatory project.
Register now for our community event on April 25 https://www.journalobservatory.org/event/.
In this community event we will introduce a machine-readable framework for describing the policies and practices of scholarly communication platforms.
To demonstrate the value of this framework, we will present a prototype of the Journal Observatory.
@seblammers Years later it was revealed that Clever Hans and Pfungst were both pawns in an endgame conceived by the true mastermind, the donkey Cunning Klaus.
The Yale Department of Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases is looking for two new tenure track faculty. Yale EMD is a great place to work with wonderful colleagues and students. Please spread the word.

In 1904, a group of prominent scholars from the Prussian Academy of Sciences asserted that “Clever Hans,” a horse, possessed near-human mathematical abilities.
However, it was not until several years of rigorous examination by psychologist Oskar Pfungst that it was revealed the horse was only responding to the cues from its handlers.
Not everything you observe that seems to be due to #intelligence is in fact intelligent.

Terrible news for science in Portugal. The Gulbenkian Foundation is killing off the IGC. This will leave the Champalimaud as the only truly independent international research center in the country.

Hello everyone, this is the account of the Center for Translational Neurophysiology of the Italian Institute of Technology.
As you can see in our header photo, we are housed in a beautiful 1501 building of the #University of #Ferrara
We do #Neuroscience and we build brain-machine interfaces (#BMI) based on organic #bioelectronics.
We will post about #Jobs , #grants , #papers and other #science -related things!
Please #follow !!

A very important point: interviews are an exchange of information.
A highly asymmetric one, no doubt. But still, they're an opportunity to get valuable information about a potential employer.
"I once encountered major red flags during a job interview. Every question the interviewer asked evoked in me a sense of anger and irritation, because every question degraded and devalued my expertise. He acted as though I wasn’t cut out for the job, even though I had 20 years of knowledge, skills, and networks that proved otherwise. The more I pushed to convince him of my professional qualifications, the more I felt minimized."

“It sounds so idealistic, but it is why you go into a job like that,” said Dr. Seema Yasmin, director of the Stanford Health Communication Initiative at Stanford University and an alumna of the E.I.S.
“It’s not for glory, and certainly not for money,” she added.
But the arrival of the pandemic laid to rest those illusions. The first big shock came in February 2020, when the Trump administration reprimanded Dr. Nancy Messonnier, a senior C.D.C. official, for warning Americans to prepare for a pandemic.'
I've worked on all of science, from B cells to T cells.
