We are proud to announce that Fellows at the National Institutes of Health are uniting to fight for better working conditions, better science, and more equitable medical research for all. We are NIH Fellows United. #NIHFellowsUnited 🧵
Experienced Bioinformaticians:
Comment below the one thing you'd like to tell junior Bioinformaticians.
New Bioinformaticians:
Read below for an awesome list of career tips.
A pleasure to see that the @journal_nd special issue celebrating Terry Partridge’s contributions to muscle research and mentorship is out. https://t.co/lBhKoYVsm0 Thanks Raju for co-editing, @LochmullerLab, @JenniferEMorgan, Carsten and JND team for help and Pete Zammit for👇
We have the opportunity to add two new team members @ChildrensNatl and @GWSMHS. A Postdoctoral fellow in #muscle biology and therapy, and a Research technician in #microscopy. For details and to apply online please visit https://t.co/AYUjlY6Yue
No, it’s not a gummy bear come-to-life. This creepy-crawly creature is actually a human #fibroblast cell. A recent #NIDCR study found fibroblasts migrate using a ‘front wheel drive’ mode. Learn how the results could shed light on thwarting #cancer spread: https://t.co/Zxae8Ejafj
Interested in single cell genomics but need help getting started? Check out the full agenda for our Single Cell Genomics Day next Friday (3/26). All talks will be live-streamed (no registration required) at https://t.co/ZYfAPcXfj7
Seq-Scope: very cool new spatial transcriptomic method that hacks the Illumina sequencing platform to create spatially-indexed capture arrays. Can perform transcriptome-wide sequencing at submicrometer spatial resolution

So many folks (esp. the media) are missing the complete backstory on $GME and how we got here.
This has been simmering for over a year and the story behind it is great. I’ve been tracking this since September and devoured all of the details from the origin through today.
I am excited to announce today that @eLife is transitioning to a new model based on author-driven publishing (preprints) and public post-publication peer review and curation https://t.co/bIjF6eFznz
We've been working on Seurat v4 for almost two years, and are excited to share it with you soon!
In a webinar w/@10xGenomics on 10/20, I'll introduce new methods to analyze multimodal single-cell data (i.e. from CITE-seq or the 10x multiome ATAC+RNA kit): https://t.co/BwZwgE5i9N
Here are the publication records and research topic areas of 63 faculty candidates in the life sciences who interviewed at R1 institutions in 2019-2020.
70% have a first-author paper in Cell, Nature, or Science, 22% have a K99, and 30% have unpublished work on bioRxiv.
New paper led by @buapinyoying "A long-read RNA-seq approach to identify novel transcripts of very large genes" Really nice work integrating experimental and informatics approaches to discover new biology of ultralong transcripts

This is our seminar series program for the next coming weeks. For "Season 2" of Muscle Science Talks, we will shift to two seminars per week. stay tuned!
