A plug that my lab is currently recruiting a postdoc. 5 years of funding, the lab has steady funding for the next 8 years, and no active attempts to burn down the scientific enterprise in your potential new home.. Plus the occasional bagpipe player rocking a kilt on the street.
¿Ya conoces el Museo de Mineralogía “Eduardo Villaseñor Söhle” de la @UdeGuanajuato?
Cuenta con una colección de minerales acopiados y clasificados por el Ing. Ponciano Aguilar, ilustre catedrático, quien descubrió un mineral denominado aguilarita.

Conferences can be sources of isolation & alienation for queer & transgender scientists. In @mSystemsJ, early-career microbiologists share how to design inclusive, safe conferences, where queer & trans scientists can flourish. https://t.co/wVWghusekH #TransgenderAwarenessWeek
Entangled adaptive landscapes facilitate the evolution of gene regulation by exaptation
"a binding site for one of TFs evolves into a binding site for another TF via smooth landscapes. Crosstalk of evolved binding sites can hinder Darwinian exaptation"

Make the MBL part of your college experience and apply for the Semester in Environmental Science (SES). The 15-week program provides intensive field and lab-based learning opportunities. Early decision deadline of November 15! https://t.co/WVmkL0PTBb
Maybe if Boomers and elder Gen X had focused on voting for policies that benefitted their children rather than themselves, they could have had grandchildren. They pulled up the ladder behind them and expected us to keep climbing.
Wanted to announce we are looking for two graduate students to fill fully funded PhD positions from a @NIH@NIDDKgov R01 grant on #microbiome bile acid metabolism. Please share with any students looking for PhD programs.
Thrilled to have shared my personal and scientific journey on the Baker Lab podcast! I hope it serves as an inspiration for aspiring scientists in Latin America.
Molecular dynamics simulations in mixed reality!
With @labriataphd and @lucien_krapp we’re scaling our multi-user WebXR platform to enable immersive molecular simulations, fully based on web technologies.
Stay tuned, lots of cool stuff coming soon!

We're recruiting!
If you're looking to start your PhD journey (in Fall 2025) working on a @NASA project with methane-oxidizing microbes and the rocks they create, do get in touch. @BU_Biology applications due December 4th. (And please spread the word!)

Someone recently said Puerto Rico is just an island full of garbage, which reminded me of a grad school interview in the U.S. a few years ago when a professor told me they were 'surprised' I could be so smart coming from Puerto Rico. I’ve faced comments like these too often in science, but every time, I prove them wrong. I’ll keep putting Puerto Rico on the map, every chance I get. Watch me!
We are accepting applications to join our 2025 PhD cohort at @MITdeptofBE! Learn more about the program, application process, and opportunities for application assistance below. Please share with junior scientists interested in the interface of #biology and #engineering! 🧫🧬🧑🔬
