Researchers present a platform for cardiac tissue cultivation with 3D ring-shaped cardiac tissues generated from human stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes. https://t.co/66bxS4cpSj

@DanielBachurski @IsevOrg Has to be spinning at 30,000 RPM, otherwise it's a dream

@StevenXGe Can this be used to generate volcano plots? Considering those require a few steps, such as log-transformation/imputation/etc.

[Fadi Abou Zeid @fadi_abz]

Pretty happy with this.

@r_gross_ @SNEVresearch Yep, that's the one!

All this time fumbling between Adobe Illustrator and Biorender, when it was possible to make something like this on Powerpoint in like 5 minutes..

[Fadi Abou Zeid @fadi_abz]

Definitely happy with how my little tetraspanin turned out.

EV friends, does anyone know a study/survey that shows the proportion of EV source materials that people use to isolate EVs? I only found one (Gardiner et al, 2016), but it did not contain "tissue" as an option. Thanks!

@CatInScience About the cut-off diameter, I think it's because most studies are oriented towards smaller EVs (such as exosomes) as opposed to budding EVs. The majority if reviews set the size of exosomes between 50-200 nm, so 0.22 um is theoretically appropriate to exclude anything larger.

[Fadi Abou Zeid @fadi_abz]

@CatInScience There is already doubts about 0.22 um filtration due to the possibility of EVs sticking to filters or to larger EVs being disintegrated into smaller vesicles by the force applied during filtration.

@drawbiomed @Ahmed_7amada83 He's right. Cell Signaling send a lot of free booklets/posters to students. I receive a bunch every year (if I remember to sign up for it).

@WHB_Masselink Depending on the complexity of your designs, you can adapt with any software. I've had nice enough things done on PowerPoint. Illustrator is usually my second go-to because I got used to how it works. Also consider BioRender for templates of common research jtems.

@KennethWWitwer I'm thinking of making a collection of predatory email quotes that are comically out of this world.

@chrost_hugo The hardest "where's Wally" I've seen in my life.

2) That other stuff

Our paper sharing the work I've done during my PhD characterizing cardiac tissue EVs. A challenging ride that was well worth the effort.

@AlkisSkout @MorgainePen1 @Shaindy77 @AdamAhlgrim In most European countries I've seen, PhDs are paid more than minimum wage. It's not incredible, but definitely enough. If doctoral students take up some teaching at the university, they earn even more.
