I always forget to post on here. But here’s from a hunt I did last month. Just under 8 pounds of Pleurotus ostreatus. #fungi #mushroom

Breaking news: Indiana University plant microbiologist Roger Innes has been locked out of his laboratory by the school in response to a request by one of his federal funders. The move comes after Innes complained about the government’s prosecution of Chinese postdocs. https://t.co/2I7IpaYoKb

We have developed a cysteine-free, highly thermostable tagging system, UTag, that enables single-mRNA translation tracking in live cells. You may wonder how different tagging systems affect translation kinetics—we addressed this by performing a systematic comparison.

I find this device from the Manalis lab at MIT, quite remarkable: https://t.co/xqWuKVVtAg
By measuring the resonant frequency of a cantilever through which growing cells are flown back and forth, it can weight the cells to remarkable precision (often 0.1% of their mass). 1/2

New preprint out! 🚀

We mapped how septins organise infection in the rice blast fungus—and found they are far more dynamic than previously thought.

Our linker histone H1 paper is out @ScienceAdvances: https://t.co/fGZsmvRPWK
@MasaAShimazoe et al. reveal that H1 acts as a liquid-like "glue" to organize chromatin in living cells. 🎉 Fantastic collab with @rcollepardo, @janhuemar, Charlie Phillips and others—huge thanks! 🙌 ½

Very happy to see our work published! Thank to the editor and the reviewers for all the very helpful comments!

We present evidence of a gene duplication event 28–18 million years ago  that coincided with the global expansion of C4 grasses, allowing the maize pathogen #Colletotrichum graminicola to evolve CgEP4—a novel, nuclear-targeting #effector weapon. https://t.co/gf4ss9InPR

@Spottingthespot @ElsevierConnect Seems that they didn't even bother to change anything either https://t.co/VJQN8HzAh0

@ATinyGreenCell Giant well plate?

[Darrion Nguyen @lab_shenanigans]

why let your research posters collect dust when you can wear them as a jacket, duhhh

Imagine losing first authorship because you got hit by a blue shell on the last lap 💀

[Oli Bedsole @NoMorelSupport]

@ATinyGreenCell Reminds me of this "made you look" trend

[Oli Bedsole @NoMorelSupport]

@ATinyGreenCell This is so funny to me. I have sent your pub to countless colleagues and never noticed your name in the author list 😂
Small world

@datmaven @MicrobiomDigest @weldeiry @gorskon @19joho @FBIDirectorKash @RobertKennedyJr @RWMaloneMD @NIHDirector_Jay Shuffling a figure is still fraud. Even if the conclusion is correct, altering data makes it untrustworthy. It wastes taxpayer money when others base research on manipulated results and undermines confidence in science as a whole.

FINAL WARNING NATURE — MAYBE THE MOST IMPORTANT WARNING IN SCIENTIFIC HISTORY! STOP DELAYING & ACCEPT THE BIG, BEAUTIFUL PAPER WITHIN 24 HOURS. MANY SAY IT’S THE GREATEST PAPER EVER WRITTEN (BY FAR). DON’T MAKE US RELEASE THE REVIEWS FOR ALL TO SEE — IT WILL BE VERY EMBARRASSING!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS VERY IMPORTANT MATTER.

I like to imagine they load the baby into a big baby-size eppendorf tube and snap the cap closed before sliding it into the machine

@ahbucknell Great poster! Very slick

[Oli Bedsole @NoMorelSupport]

@ATinyGreenCell Looks sweet! Hope all the best. I do the same thing when infiltrating with dyes that I want inside cells. Works like a charm
