In the @StarbirdLab we are working to create an environment where obstacles are minimized, and sometimes this requires a financial investment. You can now donate to our lab fund if interested! https://t.co/JlqTNL6DAP

Emphasis on the poor funding part. Just learned of two new labs closing due to this and I’m also scared of the same 🤦🏾‍♀️

Back to applying for more grants…

[Colwyn Headley, PhD @CoCo_Headley]

Poor funding right up there with that

We are hiring! This is a joint Lab Assistant position with the Tamir lab at UNC. If you are organized and creative, enjoy learning new things, and if working with two great teams of scientists sounds appealing, please apply!

Steven Moran @SJvrMoran , a postdoc funded by support from the @Hypothesisfund writes this review to highlight recent work to suggest TAM receptors, known to have role in the spread of enveloped viruses, also appear to have a unique role in the spread of non-enveloped viruses

#HHMIInvestigator Kafui Dzirasa & team @DukeU have built a biological "wire" called LinCx that connects carefully chosen neurons — bypassing broken brain circuits rather than repairing them — and, unlike existing tools, offers cellular-level precision: https://t.co/eknHmx8EYs.

@ABRCMS brought us all together, not only to watch movies but for important discussions about science and advancing equity. ABRCMS is a big part of why I am here and where future generations of diverse scientists get inspired.

I’ve been really excited by conferences that aim to combine techniques across scales, as I think it’s what’s current and future for #structbio. If you get excited by the same, here is an upcoming Keystone structural biology/computation/imaging conference 👇🏾

[Dr. Chrystal Ama Starbird PDB Depositer @drstarbird]

Excited to share the most recent review from our lab, available online and soon in #BiochemSocTrans! This review covers an area of ongoing research in the lab: the role of TAM receptors in the spread of non-enveloped viruses

@taabaman @BWFUND Congratulations!!!

[Cornelius Taabazuing @taabaman]

So excited to join the @BWFUND family and the amazing scientists who continue to push our understanding of host pathogen interactions forward! Thanks to all the mentors who have supported me!

[UNC Lineberger @UNC_Lineberger]

Rebecca Berlow, PhD, will receive more than $2 million in NIH funding to continue exploration of a kind of protein that can contribute to cancer, heart disease, and diabetes.

Congratulations, Dr. Berlow 👏 https://t.co/XL2eJ9IVGF

@CterminiPhD Congrats to the Termini Lab! 🎉

[Tina Termini @CterminiPhD]

Happy 4th birthday, Termini Lab! So grateful that I get to work with this outstanding group of scientists every day to explore the cool and complex underworkings of hematopoiesis. We are another year older, smarter, and stronger! ❤️🐁🩸☢️🍭🎂
