Reminder: over 40% of EU funding to researchers in 🇨🇭 came from @ERC_Research@twitter.com where excellent science is the only selection criterion. The exclusion of🇨🇭,🇬🇧 from @HorizonEU@twitter.com undermines the European research area.

“To emphasise the scale of this problem, we estimate that about 1m cancer diagnoses might have been missed across Europe during the Covid-19 pandemic,” they wrote in The Lancet Oncology. “There is emerging evidence that a higher proportion of patients are diagnosed with later cancer stages compared with pre-pandemic rates as a result of substantial delays in cancer diagnosis and treatment. This cancer stage shift will continue to stress European cancer systems for years to come.'
EMBO/#EMBO Press has two scientific editor positions open, one for The EMBO Journal and the other at Molecular Systems Biology/EMBO Molecular Medicine.
Both jobs are in Heidelberg.

Use layers every winter to reduce the infectious dose of SARS-CoV-2, flu and other viruses. It isn't perfect, but it beats doing nothing

We manipulate E-cadherin expression to modulate cell-cell adhesion, cell stiffness, proliferation, and force generation (migration). Then we develop a mechanical model to understand coupling between proliferation and migration.

Hey! Would you like to participate to this cool Citizen Science project on color patterns of tropical mimetic butterflies? http://memometic.cleverapps.io #Memometic #ButterflySurvey Also in Spanish, Portuguese, and French!
"So far, at least 53 people in Uganda have died of the Sudan species of Ebola virus. Unlike the Zaire species in the West Africa crisis, the Sudan virus has no approved vaccines or therapeutics. Several weeks ago, cases were found among schoolchildren in Kampala. Yet #Ebola response workers meet with denial and resistance, indicating that a fundamental lack of trust is holding back the response.
We also faced these issues in Liberia. We found that contact tracing alone was not enough. To succeed, we had to deputize members of the public — 5,700 of them at the peak of the crisis. We called them active case finders."

Hey everyone !
Time for my #science #introduction
I am the PI of the @cellcommlab @ the UKE in Hamburg, Germany. We use #microscopy & #imageanalysis to study how cells move & communicate.
I am from #Chile, where I did my #PhD at PUC, then moved to Paris to work at the Institut Curie and IPGG.
After quite some years in #science (20 since I started my BSc !) I keep my fascination to observe how cells do things, like these migrating leukocytes.

Hi, everyone! As an #introduction, I am Behnam Nabet, an Assistant Professor at Fred Hutch. My lab is dedicated to targeting oncogenic signaling through the control of protein homeostasis. Our goal is to advance new therapeutics including targeted protein degradation strategies for cancer patients. My lab recently celebrated its 1-year birthday and I am so proud of our outstanding team. Outside the lab, my family and I love hiking and exploring the beautiful PNW. #NewPI #TPD #ChemicalBiology

Hello Mastodon! This is the official account for the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID).
We are a non-profit org focused on #InfectiousDisease and Clinical Microbiology for professionals in those areas.
We organise research grants, educational events and our annual congress #ECCMID2023 (www.eccmid.org) along with much more.
You can learn all about us on our website (www.escmid.org) and we hope to see you around!

We're lucky enough to host regular lectures from leading scientists, such as Gordon Freeman at Harvard Medical School. In this recent talk, he shared fascinating overview of what’s new in #cancer #immunotherapy research and his findings regarding B7-1 and B7-2 proteins. Learn more about PD-L1 and PD-1 and take a closer look at advances in checkpoint inhibitor / blockage approaches: https://youtu.be/CDgi3WWW8So

#introduction: I am obsessed with the biology of #hallucinations and #delusions.
I am a #newPI at the Francis Crick Institute, London. In our lab, the #Psychosis Collective, we study the neural circuits and immune processes underlying unfounded perceptions and thoughts 🐭 👤 . I look forward to great #neuroscience #immunology #neuroimmunology #psychiatry here!
This is me moving to London without ever having been to London before.

Thrilled to share our lab's first paper in which we establish genome-wide CRISPR screening within a single mouse! We are so excited about the power of this platform to enable high-throughput genetic dissection of diverse phenomena within a living mammal.
