Quando as mulheres grávidas têm dificuldades em ser atendidas e fazer ecografias obstétricas de 2º e 3º trimestre, o Governo equaciona introduzir taxas moderadoras. Esta política para o SNS é grave e perigosa.

If you're heading to #CellBio2022
@ASCBiology , look for three exciting presentations from our lab, by postdocs Anja Schmidt
and Maik Bischoff, and research tech Noah Gurley 1/4

All roads lead to Rome. Meet the earliest known European map with a scale: This woodcut "south up" map by Erhard Etzlaub offers a route to Rome - located on the top of the map - through early modern German speaking Europe. The map was printed as a single-sheet item, and was made in Nuremberg for the Holy Year 1500.

Etzlaub wanted his "Rom-Weg" map to be bought, so he offered colored versions too, like the one you see, because these were more expensive.

Today those police-defunding leftists on the City of San Francisco board of supervisors voted to let cops use robots to kill people by blowing them up.

Fantastic to learn that the Leverhulme Trust is going to fund masters and PhD studentships for under-represented students to increase access to research careers. Bravo! 👏

We're losing too many excellent undergraduate students from research in the UK because they can't afford to complete masters courses now often required for admission to PhD studies.

(With a 2.i and no access to funds for a masters I would be unlikely to get on a PhD scheme now!)

@cyrilpedia This is cool and reminds me of the work by the Singer lab, showing that Lck association with co-receptors drives MHC restriction. I still find it surprising that thymocytes with 'free' Lck can yield MHC-independent, thymocyte development.

#Introduction

I'm a professor at a public university, cell biologist and geneticist who studies chromosome segregation in C. elegans during both development (mitosis) and sexual reproduction (meiosis).

I am also a passionate and committed advocate for equity in academic science

I enjoy my work, in all its forms, food (eating and cooking) and cocktails (in all its forms, but particularly the brown varieties 🥃 ).

What up, y'all?

New #preprint from our lab 🎉
We report an iLID-nanobody fusion to enable #optogenetic recruitment to #GFP. This is potentially interesting when you already have a cell line or model organism expressing a GFP fusion protein.

Hi All! Happy to be here - this is my #introduction. I'm an assistant professor at the University of Amsterdam and we are creating and applying fluorescent probes for imaging of cells with microscopes.
I'm also interested in image analysis and #dataViz with #opensource tools.

Seven #European institutions have joined forces to create a #database of 34,000 new images of #medieval items, including #manuscripts, #books, and $coins. With a collection of over 600 medieval manuscripts, the #digitized objects are now #online and available for the general public in the Europeana Web Portal
