I am interested in studying the genetic basis of human brain development and disease.

Heading to #lornegenome25 #LorneCancerConference ? Looking for a computational postdoc to work on spatial and single nuclei transcriptomics of poor prognosis cancers, please DM me or see me at Lorne. We will be advertising soon. @ozsinglecells @GenomeConf @LorneCancer

Kanye West is now using Autism as a defence, exactly like Elon Musk.

There is no Autism here, just psychopaths who are so rich they think they can do whatever they want, then trot out this excuse to cover it up.

In about 24 hours, the votes from Nobel Assembly members will be collected in this brass bucket. Welcome to watch the announcement of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine @NobelPrize CEST 11:30 am!

[Alistair Forrest @Al__Forrest]

Want to work on spatial analysis of poor prognosis cancers? We have a new computational position open in our group. https://t.co/3pWRzpXR9q

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

“Ten years ago I was kicked out and forced to retire.”

Our new medicine laureate Katalin Karikó (@kkariko) told us how much it means to be awarded the Nobel Prize after a scientific career that has been full of challenges.

Ten years ago, Karikó was still doing all her experiments by hand but today she has been awarded the medicine prize for her research on mRNA, which led to the development of COVID-19 vaccines.

Listen now:

In our new work we chart epigenome reconfiguration in human iPSC reprogramming, informing a new 'Transient Naive Treatment' (TNT) reprogramming strategy that corrects human iPSCs functionally and epigenetically. Read it here @Nature https://t.co/VZYmTt8IRe

Research briefing: An innovative method reduces the retention of residual epigenetic modifications in induced pluripotent stem cells. https://t.co/s2g72ix7WY

[AAMRI @AAMRI_Aus]

It's a harsh & disappointing reality that is painted for early to mid-career researchers (EMCRs) in the new report just published: 2021 Early to Mid-Career Researchers Grant Opportunity Outcomes. Check out these stats: 428 grants applications from EMCRs, & 23 awarded funds.🧵1/3

[Daniel Poppe @DanielPoppe83]

Excited to share our work on human prefrontal cortex, using single nuclei RNA and ATAC to cover development from fetal into adulthood! https://t.co/OkvFwNN8Tp Great team work with @Chuck_Herring, twitterless Becca Simmons, @SaskiaFreytag and @ry_Lister.

So just 6 out 100 Future Fellowships funded west of the Murray. Good job @arc_gov_au

Neuroscience Researcher Position. Deadline approaching: July 13! Welcome with your application!

[The Australian Society for Medical Research (ASMR) @TheASMR1]

Such a devastating loss to the Australian research community. Current @NHMRC funding cant support excellence. In 2021 33% of NHMRC Ideas grants rated outstanding by international standards were unfunded. We call on @AlboMP to increase @NHMRC budget to support careers + our future

[Isabel A. Hemming @IsabelHemming]

Enjoying all the great talks at #StratNeuro2022

[Thomas Perlmann @perlmannlab]

Perlmann group representatives at #StratNeuro2022 meeting - postdocs Isabel and Behzad and an expired postdoc Laura. Great scientific programme in a beautiful location in Runö.

[Anthony Hannan @anthonyjhannan]

Here is a simple policy/promise (at least a doubling, ideally tripling or quadrupaling) that could have major impacts. Does either party have enough vision for this simple but impactful promise? @AlboMP @ScottMorrisonMP @tanya_plibersek @JoshFrydenberg @FellowsNational @AAMRI_Aus

[Anthony Hannan @anthonyjhannan]

It is extraordinary that in this (first since #COVID19) federal election campaign we have had no substantial promise of increased funding for science, including medical research! @FellowsNational @AAMRI_Aus @ScottMorrisonMP @AlboMP @JoshFrydenberg @tanya_plibersek @GregHuntMP

[Brian Cox @ProfBrianCox]

Important debate happening in Australia about research funding. A country that doesn’t invest in research (in science and social science and the arts by the way) will inevitably become a country in relative decline. The 21st century will be the century of knowledge.

Captures the university research zeitgeist right now here in australia https://t.co/veeYcxzp7e

[Snow Medical @SnowMedical]

Snow Medical has taken the difficult decision to suspend the University of Melbourne from its prestigious Snow Fellowship program. We are committed to working with the University to ensure real change happens.

Today we announced the new date for WA’s full border opening – and it’s worth talking through how we got here.

Four weeks ago, on January 20, we took the difficult decision to delay Western Australia’s full border opening.

[Dr Kimberley Wang @DrKimberleyWang]

To kick off our activities in 2022, join us for an informal “Coffee and Chat” session where we will have special guest A/Prof Cecilia Prele @Resp_Health @UWAresearch to share her story, journey and experiences as a woman in science. Bring along a coffee/tea and have a chat!
