@PronkDaniel @stock_unlock When is the iOS version coming out?

[Varnesh Tiku @TikuVarnesh]

One of the best places to do a postdoc! Genentech is accepting postdoc applications.

[Kate Carbone @mKate]

1/@Genentech is #hiring! The deadline for applications for our annual open call for postdoctoral fellows is July 30. Check out the flyer below. You could work for any of these great scientists: https://t.co/cutj8nOM6j

Our work here shows how the deadly bacterium A. baumannii induces cell death by perturbing mitochondria using its outer membrane vesicles.

[Ivan Đikić @iDikic2]

How extracellular bacteria (#Acinetobacterbaumannii) can fragment #mitochondria inside host cells and promote infection? This work was done during my tenure in @genentech. Congratulations @TikuVarnesh 👏🍾

Legionella infection modulates mitochondrial stress response

[Julia Noack @JuliaNoack2]

Happy to share our new preprint! To get a better idea of how #Legionella rewires the host cell, we did dynamic #proteomics profiling and found that it modulates the #mitochondrialstress response. We also found a really cool #mitoprotective effector🦠:

This is the time to act responsibly for the people who are in distress and need immediate help due to the ongoing pandemic. I did my part. Please donate!

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

It is my appeal to my fellow Indians,

Kindly contribute to the PM-CARES Fund. This Fund will also cater to similar distressing situations, if they occur in the times ahead. This link has all important details about the fund.

@MartinD79 Thanks Martin! Hope you are doing well!

[Varnesh Tiku @TikuVarnesh]

This is why conditions in research should improve so that researchers don’t feel under appreciated and under paid!!

[Nirmal Robinson @Nirmalrob]

This needs to be said loud and clear everywhere

[Varnesh Tiku @TikuVarnesh]

@noriupdates @HRDMinistry I am experiencing the same issue! Got my NORI stage 1 done from cgi-SF. Nori MHRD website seems to be down. Its not possible to register. What is the alternative?@HRDMinistry

[Varnesh Tiku @TikuVarnesh]

Great job @ArunKondadi and @ruchikancbs Congrats!!

@MartinD79 @NatureComms Congrats @MartinD79 on this awesome work!!

[Vishva Dixit @dixitvishva]

Sad news ... Maharaj Kishan Bhan ... passed away. He was a giant in Indian Biomedical research having led the development of Rota Viral Vaccine. An honorable and visionary leader he was Secretary, Department of Biotechnology, Government of India. His contributions were legendary.

Talking about our experience as industry postdocs. It was a great meeting #STEMPeers2019

[Madhuja Samaddar @Madhuja15]

There's a first for everything! This was my my first experience as a panelist yesterday, talking about postdocs in industry settings. Thanks @Stempeer15 @PhDCSG for the opportunity! #STEMPeers2019

[Varnesh Tiku @TikuVarnesh]

That’s why science is so much fun!

Congrats @AntebiLab for the prestigious award. It’s great to see the nucleolus generating a buzz in the aging field!
