@MuthrNaturzSon Maybe you should stop looking for something called anoikis and just look for cells that don't die in suspension.

@MuthrNaturzSon I would like to nominate myself as someone who has thought a lot about it, but .... You already know most of what I've thought so it's pretty much a wash.

@MuthrNaturzSon I know an Austrian guy who uses ain't more naturally than most texans. Maybe it just comes naturally to those that grew up speaking sloppy German.

Gotta be someone who chews the magic bark and chops wood all night so your camp doesn't freeze to death once winter comes.

@paulzerrvisuals @TanentzapfLab Then what is the point of a mentored position if you make your own decisions? Why not give these independent scientists funding to run their own small labs?

Our thanks to @ngpaction for bringing members of the Atlanta community together for a powerful conversation about voting rights. A great opportunity to hear more ideas, gain more perspectives, and bring more people into our plan to fix this democracy.

#NIH is important and creates enormous value. But federal budget pressures mean NIH doesn’t fund research anymore, they subsidize research, limiting the ability of labs that lack discretionary funds from deploying their full talents to cure disease.

At a time of unprecedented attacks on reproductive health care, we must defend a woman’s right to make her own decisions about her own body. That means defeating dangerous efforts like Georgia’s HB481, protecting Roe v. Wade, and expanding access to reproductive health care.

@MuthrNaturzSon I thought this was with respect to Lone Star beer, but take it how you will. I'll be enjoying a frosty barley pop.

@MuthrNaturzSon Don't sell yourself short, your creepy "gardening" shed is super cool.
