Amazing #conesnails! Check out our discovery of toxins that affect glucose levels🐚

[Safavi Lab @SafaviLab]

Excited to share our latest story on how fish-hunting cone snail uses a combination of weaponized insulin and somatostatin-like toxins to disrupt glucose level in its fish prey 🐚⚡️🐠🍬

Thank you @GelatinousSting and @SamNScience for being excellent #GRSVenom24 chairs! It was a great GRS, looking forward to the @grcvenom!

[Anna Klompen, PhD @GelatinousSting]

Thank you to everyone that participated and helped to organize #GRSVenom24! It’s a whirlwind to see months of work come together, and such a joy to see all the amazing work our peers are doing!

Could not have been done without my co-chair @SamNScience @grcvenom! 💙🕷️🪼

#Filipinas in #STEM series by @IssarSwastika and @Science_Corps starts this week! Looking forward to following this series! #WomenInScience #WOCinSTEM

[Swastika Issar @IssarSwastika]

My @Science_Corps fellowship at the Central Visayan Institute Foundation in Bohol 🇵🇭 has been a life changing experience. It brings me great joy to share that together we are launching the Science-Corps #Filipinas in #STEM series on May 30!

[Iris Bea Ramiro @irisbeara]

Another chance to talk about cone snails tomorrow @BiomedUCPH poster event #SoMeDMPAND @MkeYoung 🐚

[Maik Damm 🐍 @DammMaik]

⚠️And it’s #VenomWednesday again!⚠️
Join us today at 14:00 (Berlin time) via Zoom:

That’s a wrap! Learned so much during @EUVENAction Introductory Venomics Training School these past few days.
Grateful to all the speakers for sharing resources and their knowledge and expertise. Special thanks to @evolriffs and #EUVEN team for organizing it! 👏👏👏

[Iris Bea Ramiro @irisbeara]

Great start @DRA_UCPH Summer School with talks on diversity. Interesting scientific talks and poster presentations. Looking forward to tomorrow's sessions!

[Jukka Rantanen @JTRantanen]

PhD Summer School @DRA_UCPH Active PhD students presenting their work. Two days outside the office in the Danish countryside!

[Iris Bea Ramiro @irisbeara]

The school, CVIF, is located in the island province of Bohol. 🏝️
Ask me ✉️ if you want to know more about Bohol , #CVIF, or their Dynamic Learning Program @CVIFDLP!

[Iris Bea Ramiro @irisbeara]

There’s an opportunity to be in the Philippines 🇵🇭 and impact young students by teaching research or the sciences.

[Iris Bea Ramiro @irisbeara]

Well, they did it... @ScienceNight1 podcast, they talked about having some #ConeSnail merch in an earlier episode and here it is! Check it out!
@paulaflorezsalc maybe we should feature your #ConeSnail #art and stickers! 😉

[Science Night! @SciNightPod]

To celebrate the return of the #conesnail we have NEW MERCH!!! Check it out at https://t.co/BADOMmLLLU

[Iris Bea Ramiro @irisbeara]

I had a great conversation with @James_Reed3 on the @ScienceNight1 podcast about cone snails, our research, and some field stories. Here’s the episode!

[Science Night! @SciNightPod]

🚨NEW EPISODE🚨 Check out the new episode featuring @irisbeara from the @SafaviLab wherever you get #podcasts and at: https://t.co/oIQJbv6Zu5

[Science Night! @SciNightPod]

You'll have to wait for Friday (5/27) to see the new merch we've designed to go with the next episode, but here is a censored version of the design to start building that sweet sweet hype! #scicomm #sciart #podcast #conesnail

[Iris Bea Ramiro @irisbeara]

Looking more into our recently discovered somatostatin-like cone snail peptides (consomatins), it was surprising to see so many consomatin sequences from worm-hunting cone snails. 😯
It was indicating a similar signaling system in worms! 🪱

[Safavi Lab @SafaviLab]

(3/5) This neuropeptide is not only found in cone snails, but also in many other invertebrates including other mollusks and annelids but not others such as arthropods.
