Just got tone-policed and told I should go back to Twitter by someone who joined Mastodon… *checks notes*… three days ago.

Welcome to the fediverse. Please leave your entitlement at the door. Thank you.

*smh*

I remember Mastodon being a quiet place, an exclusive club with only a handful of members. Now, look at this place!

We're starting to get some data on the @Raspberry_Pi hosting this instance.Would you rather see ...

#introduction
Hi I am Erik. I am a computational biophysicist/-chemist at Uppsala University, Dept of Chemistry – BMC. My interests are broad, and span a multitude of artistic subjects as well, where 3D modelling and rendering is becoming increasingly relevant for me as it combines well with my endeavours in the molecular sciences. Music and Brazilian Jiu Jistu are also close to my heart.

❤️ A special thanks to our Mastodon community

Many in vitro #CRISPR knock-in approaches use small molecule drugs to improve the efficiency of homology-directed repair, but these drugs may or may not be safe in vivo. In this paper from #NatureBiotechnology, the authors find that an FDA-approved therapy, fludarabine, can be used for a similar purpose. Still a long ways to go before any genetic knock-ins are routinely done in vivo, but making progress toward doing so safely: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41587-022-01240-2 #science #medicine #GeneEditing #AAV

Yes, it's possible to make artificial gravity with a spinning spacecraft - but there's a big problem if the size is too small - the Coriolis force.

Gotta say, #Mastodon reminds me of a more curious, more fun era of the internet. Send me cool science / tech / art / music links and accounts. I'd like this moment to last a bit longer.

An intersectional festival about collective practices & free technologies production.

#OFFDEM started as an Off festival of #FOSDEM to protest surveillance capitalist sponsorship and the lack of conviviality. But since OFFDEM kept happening while FOSDEM went online, OFFDEM have diverged substantially -- although it remains on its initial positions against the #FreeSoftware #Community takeover by corporate interests.

Let’s try this again. Where you at #fediverse? Boosts welcome so we can get the best sample size.

'Young life science researchers are leaving academia at unprecedented levels for lucrative jobs in the private sector. Like Gorashi, many of them are entering graduate programs already knowing they don’t want to remain in academia long-term, making their time in the ivory tower a pit stop rather than a final destination.'

If you're here on the Fediverse right now, you're probably experiencing shock.

You're coming to grips with ideas that were previously foreign to you: decentralization, federation, instances, etc.

This is intimidating -- probably even scary.

But while you might feel like a noob (and you are), you're also on the cutting edge of *the* biggest communications revolution in a generation!
