Two of my science heroes working hard for science funding.

[Kevin Gardner @nmrkaygee]

Busily working on behalf of @ASBMB today on Capitol Hill! Treat to be paired up with ASBMB President Ann Stock to share the importance of stable & robust NIH, NSF, and DOE funding of basic research!

[INOUE lab. (GSFS/ISSP Univ. Tokyo) @LabInoue]

Collaboration with Prof. Terazima and Dr. Nakasone at Kyoto Univ. on transient grating measurement of heliorhodopsin has been published in PCCP. Transient helix (ICL1) unfolding during photoreaction was found.

[Simonetta Gribaldo @SGribaldo]

Need an up-to-date #TreeofLife for teaching/conferences/wall paper? Talented PhD student @BasileBeaud drew a schematic consensus ToL from the most recently published phylogenies. Hope this is useful! Downloadable version in the thread👇

Not too late to join the #asmmicrobe2022 session in honor of Tom Brock going on now! @UWBact

[Trina McMahon 🌪 @quendi]

#ASMicrobe Are you a fan of Brock’s Biology of Microorganisms? Did you know he discovered the microbe that gave is Taq polymerase? Come learn about the Brockian way tomorrow at 8:15 in 143ABC. #ASMMicrobe2022

[Katrina Forest @ktforest]

@GcRox1 Oh no! Get better quickly.

[UW-Madison Department of Bacteriology @UWBact]
