🏥 El Hospital Universitario Miguel Servet identifica una nueva bacteria denominada Mycobacterium cajalii, en homenaje a Ramón y Cajal.

👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️Se trata de un hallazgo poco frecuente a nivel internacional y relevante para mejorar el diagnóstico microbiológico.

What’s the number one factor that makes PhD students happier?
𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧. 👇

That’s what stood out to me in Nature’s latest global PhD survey. Students who met with their supervisors for at least one hour a week were significantly more satisfied with their PhD experience.

Not just because of research progress, but because they felt supported as people, not just as research machines.

⭐In countries like Brazil and Australia, where students reported the highest satisfaction, supervision was more collaborative and grounded in mutual respect.
⭐In India, most PhD students spend at least an hour weekly with their supervisor.
⭐But in the UK and Germany, over 60% of students see their supervisor less than one hour per week.

It’s not surprising then that one of the most common pieces of advice from PhD students was:
"𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨𝐫."

𝐀 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨:
👍 An hour a week is more powerful than you think.
👍You don’t need to have all the answers, just show up consistently.
👍Even short check-ins can prevent small frustrations from becoming major problems.

𝐀 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐏𝐡𝐃:
👍You deserve to be supported, not just supervised.
👍You are not asking for too much by wanting mentorship.
👍Your supervisor matters more than your research topic. Choose wisely, if you still can.

Good supervision shouldn't be a luxury.
It should be the foundation!

And in the long run, it benefits everyone, including the students, the research, and the entire academic ecosystem.

Have you had a supervisor who made a difference during your PhD?
Would love to hear what helped you feel supported.

I hope this helps.

The Sulfoximine Group: A Rising Star in Medicinal Chemistry | https://t.co/6KehpRsF0Q

Ever thought about introducing sulfoximine moieties into your next drug design?

Sulfoximines are versatile functional groups that can improve the physicochemical and ADME properties of drug candidates;
in this article, we present key synthetic routes for the introduction of sulfoximine motifs and showcase real-world case studies where scientists have leveraged sulfoximine groups as bioisosteres of sulfones and sulfonamides.

We also discuss the wide application of sulfoximine functional groups in complex small molecules, covalent inhibitors, macrocycles, PROTACs, and ADCs (antibody-drug conjugates), including promising examples advancing in clinical trials.
