The cyclin triggering the cell cycle is not doing what you had assumed it was doing since forever. Mardo Koivomagi discovered it, and after about 6 years of work, this gem is published. This is the most surprising result to come out of my group by far 1/

@jallepap Does this apply to the military?

[Bob @bobalver]

@jallepap It’s the same thrill trolls get trolling folks and bullies get bullying. A combination of demonizing people /making them “other” and a lack of empathy… 🤷‍♂️. I’m kind of glad I don’t get it.

In oncology clinics around the globe, something big and meaningful happens every day. To untangle, we need to combine knowledge w meaning, objective w subjective, and head w heart. If we do, can wisdom be far behind?

I was 30 years old.
I was married.
We were happy.
We were established.
Our 401k runneth over.
We decided to start a family.
I got pregnant right away.
Like right away.
We were over the moon.
I kept a journal of every day of the magic.
I got a bump.

@PodSaveAmerica @jonfavs @jonlovett @TVietor08 @jonlovett have you played Actraiser Renaissance?

[Bob @bobalver]

@PodSaveAmerica @jonfavs @jonlovett @TVietor08 Why are people -including our elected reps- retweeting nonsense from their opponents and holding it up as examples of their terrible viewpoints? Can we maybe just do that without spreading their message and influencing the algorithms that decide whether to show people content?

Please share in your biochemist-network: we have a postdoc position available to identify novel small molecule inhibitors to kill BRCA-deficient tumours. Exciting stuff to do! In collaboration with @haicovanattikum.

@PodSaveAmerica Could we set us a reminder at the end of every couple shows to STOP RETWEETING REPUBLICAN’S CAMPAIGN ADS?!
Just saw a Marge campaign ad because of a D-house member retweeted it. Oh the message they’re sending is awful and inappropriate? I’mSoShOcKeD

@NPRKelly Watch from the beginning!!! Love Mel, Sue, and Mary Berry!

We are excited to present our collaboration with @LabRemus @sloan_kettering showing how the 9-1-1 checkpoint clamp is recruited to 5' ss/dsDNA junctions, which arise following DNA damage. Preprint:https://t.co/fUla3tlWjV 1/5

@MattBruenig @chrislhayes If you’re not chosing 2) you’re putting yourself and your coworkers at significant risk.

I’m not sorry you have to test weekly like -many- have been doing to attend school/work in person. That is just being a responsible adult, who cares for your community and coworkers.

Both are 17 years old.
Both set world records.
Both won Paralympic gold.

@TheLeadCNN @jaketapper @Phil_Mattingly Pretty sure the first crisis point was day one when he stepped into office in the middle of a completely bungled pandemic response.
