Like a climber scaling a mountain, RNA moves through the ribosome. Findings from @TheBlanchardLab, @ERundlet show six new structures of this movement. #sciart

[St. Jude Research @StJudeResearch]

Scientists visualized how the ribosome moves using technologies called #smFRET and #cryo-EM to capture six new structures. @TheBlanchardLab @NormanLuo5 #SciArt

Scientists currently use one reference genome as a guide to study all humans, but one reference genome cannot possibly represent everyone! Now, researchers are working to create a “pangenome,” a collection of complete genomes in which everyone’s differences are represented.

I recognize the PhD route is not right for everyone, but if ability to deal with failure is a major roadblock, then why don't we spend more time helping undergrad students gain the resilience and coping skills they need to be successful?
