On #scienceTwitter, my favourite thing were reading and, on rare occasions, writing "paper/preprint threads". From the researchers I followed and through the #Twitter algorithm, this became my most important source for new #research.

While people start to do the same on #Mastodon, I have the feeling that I miss important work bc no algorithm "saves" it for me if I don't watch my timeline constantly.

Two simple solutions would be: a commonly accepted hashtag that everybody uses when writing "paper threads" or a [...] @ a.gup.pe group with a similar adaptation rate.

#Question 1: is there already a mechanism for this that I missed?
#Question 2: What hashtag or group name?
I saw #TootPrint before. Maybe #PaperInAToot? #PaperInAPost? #PaperInAThread? #PaperPost? #MastoPrint?

Suggestions and boosts, please, we need reach for this! 🤓​

The collection of immune cell proteomes is really growing at http://ImmPRes.co.uk. Simply fantastic resource.
#Tcells (of many types)

I know for a fact there’s lots of new datasets on the way too 😁

RT @ImmPRes_
we have now added our first #neutrophil dataset to ImmPRes. What effect does hypoxia have on neutrophils when they're activated with LPS? and what happens …

Truly enjoyed this elegant work from Delgoffe lab showing that Tex CD8 T cells display transcriptional and functional similarities with Treg [we see similar things in our data – hopef coming soon]

We partnered with Research!America to survey Americans about their views on brain health and how it affects their lives, as well as their views on brain health research. Read our Executive Overview for key findings from the survey and for steps we and others can take to set priorities to ensure brain research is responsive to societal needs.

"The China CDC analysis showed a predominance of #Omicron lineages BA.5.2 and BF.7 among locally acquired infections. ...
No new variant or mutation of known significance is noted in the publicly available sequence data."

Interesting statement by WHO's Technical Advisory Group on Virus Evolution which met yesterday to discuss the #covid19 situation in #China:

Louis Braille was born on this day in 1809, to change the world for millions. He was only a child when he invented his tactile language for the blind. His inspiring story, illustrated: https://www.themarginalian.org/2017/03/21/six-dots-braille/

A great read to close out the year: radially expanding populations decrease competition as they grow (because of expanding available area or volume), which facilitates the survival of unfit mutants and downstream acquisition of compensatory mutations. This can underlie the evolution of resistance to treatment in bacterial biofilms and solid tumors.

Bohemian Rhapsody for postdocs

Is this a real job?
Or more like a PhD?
Caught in short contracts
No chance of stability

Open your eyes
Look up to PIs and see
I'm just a postdoc
I get no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
Stress is high
Pay is low
