I discuss the urgent crisis from the loss of federal support of science in the US and recent clinical gene editing breakthroughs with @WalterIsaacson & @amanpour on @AmanpourCoPBS, airing on @PBS tonight at 11 pm ET, and on @cnni earlier today. Pls share!

Trump’s back at Mar-a-Lago for another golf weekend. He’s now spent 38% of his presidency at his resorts — costing $85 million in taxpayer cash.

This money at the NIH could fund more than 40 biomedical research labs for the next 5 years.

Metabolism (and horse) nerds: You have to check out this paper! Keap1 mutations in equine species permit increased Nrf2 activity and help explain why horses have such big, strong, oxygen consuming muscles 💪🏼🐴 The nature of the mutation is as provocative as the physiological output.

👀Running a genetic stop sign accelerates oxygen metabolism and energy production in horses

@TanLabUCD Congratulations Dr. Tan!

[Darby Saxbe @darbysaxbe]

I need people to understand how difficult it is to get an NIH grant. You spend months writing a proposal, following strict guidelines that include a detailed multiyear budget, bios of everyone on your team, plans for participant safety & ethical conduct. Then you send it off -1/n

I had the best time at #ISEV2024 this past week with the @carney_lab and friends. I’m grateful I got to share my work, meet and learn from leaders in the EV field, and enjoy Melbourne!

Thanks to all past and present members of the Health Equity and Wellness committee (read here: https://t.co/MGhRqbStFL) for the hard work on this and many other initiatives!

[Ele Grandi @ele_grandi_]

Thanks to our leaders, including @UCDavisBMEGG Chair @ChristiansenLab and Program Coordinator Christal Wintersmith, for active participation and engagement!

[Ele Grandi @ele_grandi_]

We are grateful to all Women+ trainees (@OrrScience @h_otoole @RoshniShetty99), faculty (@AviranLab @RipplingerLab), staff and their allies for contributing to this is important space for exchange and support.

[Ele Grandi @ele_grandi_]

We launched Women+ in BME to create space discussing the issues women and historically excluded populations face in biomedical engineering. Read about the initiative led by @AlbaAlfgar and supported by @UCDavisBME chair and Women+ ally @steven_c_george: https://t.co/R7rZSuxHri

[Abhijit Chaudhari @DrAJChaudhari]

Alita D'Almeida (@Alita_DAlmeida) of our group just published her first manuscript on utilizing T2 mapping for tracking neuropathology and therapeutic rescue after organophosphate exposure. Congratulations, Alita! @lein_lab_ucd @UCDRadiology @UCDavisCMGI

Did you know that only 4% of scientists and engineers are Black and Latina women?

Today, let’s celebrate those women who keep venturing into this field. Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! 👩🏽‍🔬🔬🧪🧬

@ColinHisey @UCDavisGrad does great holistic reviews + workshops. We use Slate and each department reviews applications so they are admitting the students that will be most successful in their fields. Rubrics and equitable assessment are so important!

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

The Raman effect is the change in the wavelength of light that occurs when a light beam is deflected by molecules. It was named after Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman who was born #OnThisDay, 7 November 1888. The Raman effect is used to analyse different types of material.
