É profundamente irónico que no dia nacional da cultura científica o governo promova uma notícia falsa, entrando assim para os anais de exemplos de coisas a não fazer por falta de literacia científica. Hoje não é dia mundial da ciência @JornalPoligrafo https://twitter.com/antoniocostapm/status/1595689071652765696

Elaine Diacumakos (1930-1984) developed the technique of physical microinjection for inserting #cloned #genes into the #nuclei of mammalian cells with French Anderson around 1979-1980.

I'm with Niels Bohr when it comes to #logic:
"No, no, you're not thinking; you're just being logical.”
"In contrast in ANKA(Balb/c) and NK65(C57BL/6) infections do not result in CM and proceed similarly in terms of parasite growth, disease course and host immune response. However, parasite gene expression in (ANKA(C57BL/6)) was remarkably different than in ANKA(Balb/c) but similar to the gene expression in NK65(C57BL/6 )."

I wrote an editorial about the #AntimicrobialResistance crisis. It covers the need for a #Global #Equitable approach, #resistance in neglected #fungi & #parasites, the promise of new #antibiotics, sharing of #sequence data, idiotic policies that risk antibiotic stewardship & more
Please share it far and wide - this #WorldAntimicrobialAwarenessWeek we've not been as loud as others, or as loud as we need to
The antimicrobial resistance crisis needs action now

Wow! Scientists have observed a single-cell alga evolve in real time into a multicellular organism. The transition took around a year and was caused by the introduction of a predator into the environment. https://nature.com/articles/s41598-019-39558-8

Hi. We are a #neuroscience lab at the Research Centre of the CHUSJ at the University of Montreal, Canada. We study synaptic integration and plasticity rules for dendritic spines and the formation of memories in the neocortex. Happy to be in #sciencemastodon #neuroscience
'More than 1.3mn people in China were under medical observation this week as close contacts of cases of Covid-19, the highest level since the pandemic erupted out of Wuhan, and an increase of more than 300,000 in just a few days.
The soaring number of close contacts, driven by a rise in cases to near record levels, is putting immense strain on a Covid-19 policy that in contrast with the rest of the world aims to eliminate rather than live with the virus.'

'Lack of masking has been shown to correlate with an overestimation of treatment efficacy and false positive findings. We conducted exploratory interviews across academic and a commercial setting to discuss the implementation of masking at four stages of the experiment: during allocation and intervention, during the conduct of the experiment, during the outcome assessment, and during the data analysis.'

The lab recently got into #immune #cellbiology thanks to @HFSP funds. We’d like to immerse and learn more about everything which is #membrane and #cellbio of immune cells! Any fav meetings? @KinesinSu @mtaylor_Berlin @MajerOlivia @Sciezgin?
'By the time attorney George Templeton Strong diagnosed his own bibliomania in 1842, the book madness had gripped New York. “Bibliomania is a kind of constitutional disease with me,” he confessed to his diary. “I’ve been subject to it almost as long as I can remember.”'
It's a wonderful menu
"Here, we examine the gut contents of Ediacaran animals using biomarker molecules. We show that 558-million-year (Ma)-old tube worm-like Calyptrina and mollusc-like Kimberella possessed a gut and shared a diet of green algae and bacteria. Despite their ancient age, sterol metabolism within the gut of both organisms was already comparable to extant invertebrates."
