Can death be beneficial? We conduct a novel exploration into the biology of C. elegans colonies, identifying trade offs between resource utilisation by individuals and colony fitness.🪱❤️☠️

@acbontempo@simohosio@PhDVoice@PostdocVoice It happened with my first, first author, paper and really worried me but it was all ok in the end. I agree with the previous advice, you could politely reach out to the editor to get an update. Good luck with the job apps!!
@simohosio@acbontempo@PhDVoice@PostdocVoice This also happened to me after a long wait, and then one of the reviewers backed out so they needed to find another. There’s a lot on academics shoulders so it can be hard to find people with spare time to review. Stay patient and good luck! ☺️
I delivered to Park Lane apartments, Bloomsbury flats with swanky concierges and to the 7th floor of council flats.
The bankers/Mayfair residents didn’t tip once. People in council flats were the ones who did.

We have a couple of exciting projects available in my lab working on ageing in Drosophila at University of Warwick - contact me for more details!
Advice for scholars: next time you lecture on Kant and revolutions at “Downing” (@DarwinCollege) Cambridge, make sure your hair is neatly tied and that you’re not blonde. Or else your research impact will be on the @spectator libido section.
That amazing paper you spent years on? That amazing breakthrough you had? Very likely you built this following the work of others (very few exceptions), just as others will build off yours. Science is a continuum. Want to leave a lasting legacy in science? Be generous & be kind.
Call for significant increase in funding for aging research in the UK
@BSRAgeing launches public fundraising campaign to support more research into understanding and slowing aging.

Bilbo Baggins is 111.
Yet his epigenetic age is only 50.
He’s aging at an annual rate of 0.00, like butter scraped over too much bread, outpacing Dave Pascoe.
Here’s a breakdown of his biohacking protocol (it costs WAY less than you think):
Well worth a watch.
The initial bit is horrifying : and true for so many women in science.
I tried industry and academia and for all that matters I favor academia.
But we need to acknowledge it’s broken so we can fix it.

Alright everybody, what will undoubtedly forever be the lab's strangest discovery is now out in Nature. It's a protein that evolved to self-assemble into a Sierpinski fractal. https://t.co/zV5CDzbaGm 1/n
#Cellpose remains the state-of-the-art for cellular segmentation. See our new paper, in response to Ma et al, Nat Methods 2024.

What can I say, my supervisor lends the best reading. A great book by @mary_roach - highly entertaining and engaging! Some interesting looks from fellow train passengers on the commute.
