You can’t say you have a “pollinator-friendly” garden until you get stung by a 🐝 on your bare 🍑 in your bathroom

This is a direct assault on what makes this country great. If you are a proud American, please tell your family and friends that Trump’s coming after their cures and their kid’s college education and slashing it with a butcher’s knife.

Why is research in worms and flies important?

We still don't know what many genes "do". When similar genes exists in us & them, it's vastly more cost effective to figure it out in them.

Eliminating worm and fly research would slow down research and make costs skyrocket.

Did I enter a Time Machine? Drinking PBR and seeing Liz Phair playing all of Exile live (on a school night 🤫)

Spend $40M to widen a street and get 22 seconds back in your day
vs
Spending far less to build pedestrian & bike pathways and safe trolley access??
⚖️ @CityofSanDiego we can and must do better

@ClementYChow I know!

But now you get to say “I want you to do a Hollywood assay,” use this designation in the methods section, and allow me to continue to contribute to drosophila research despite leaving the field

Congratulations to Dr. Stan Fields on his retirement from the University of Washington! 🥳

With our new IPA, called Y2H, we celebrate his contributions to our understanding of biology!

Finally it’s arrived! Foldscope 2.0. We have been working on this for many years - so thrilled to see this out! Will write a longer thread on new features shortly - but finally we have swappable lenses (3!!). Your support allows us to bring microscopy to all corners of the world.

@arunsethuraman @GrossmontEDU Thanks! First gotta survive this semester and I want to touch base with the CS dept about their thoughts about a cross referenced course…But I knew I could count on you!
