@QueenSaikia_ Congratulations Queen! 👏🏼🎉

[Abhijit Majumder @abhijit_MLab]

Are u in the evaluation committee?
Evaluate the candidate, their contribution to the field. Read the proposal. Don’t just count the number of papers, h index, IFs. Yes, it will take time but u r there to do that job as an expert. Else, a computer could do the calculation. 1

How do epithelial tissues develop their diverse, beautiful shapes?

Some researchers have been controlling their forces with light to understand it.

I’m @GMartinezAra and today I’ll tell you about how we can use optogenetics to study morphogenesis!

[Shiladitya Banerjee @ShilaBanerji]

Excited to share our latest preprint:

which shows how the feedback between mechanical strain and contractility can turn monolayer tissues into a mechanically-excitable medium, leading to the propagation of self-sustained waves.

Meet the ASAPbio Fellows!
Sudeepa Nandi @NandiSudeepa is pursuing a PhD @TIFRScience and working as Policy Associate @DORAssessment.

Sudeepa believes that while awareness is growing, there is still a lack of solid supportive frameworks that value and recognize #preprints.

Dear #SciComm practitioners,

As science communicators working in India, we have often observed or experienced the lack of standardised benchmarked salaries in this field. We believe that an anonymous survey regarding salaries could be a starting point to address this issue. +

I’m quite used to the cruelty students can face when they apply for a US visa but this one broke me. We offered admission to a stellar, talented & hardworking student. After months of work and hundreds of dollars, an embassy officer saw him for 5 mins & said no. why? …

[ASAPbio @ASAPbio_]

Recently, funding bodies and hiring committees have implemented policies recognizing #preprints as valid research outputs and evidence in grant or job applications.
