@IsbergRalph And we @UCSD got lucky when Elio moved to San Diego & invited Hanna for a seminar. She left us all spellbound with her superbly crafted tales of deciphering MazEF function. It was thrilling! The MazEF field continued on to evolve into an even more fascinating system.

[Dr. Seema Mattoo @MattooLab]

@IBiofilms @HebrewU Very sorry to hear this news. My deepest condolences. I heard Hanna give a talk at @UCSD during my postdoc. She explained complicated bacterial phenotypes with such eloquence that several in the audience jumped up in applause. Brava, Hanna!

[Hypothesis Fund @Hypothesisfund]

Big congrats to #HFScout Joseph Mougous on his new position at @Yale!

@MarioFeldman9 Several study section meetings canceled :(

[Dr. Seema Mattoo @MattooLab]

@TrumanLab I expect the same will happen to the upcoming panels :(

In the #PurdueOneHealth Series, here’s coverage of our collaborative effort focused on protein misfolding and disease.
@PurdueBiolSci @PurdueBiochem @PurdueLifeSci

[Purdue Institute for Cancer Research @PUCancerInst]

Part 2️⃣ in the #PurdueOneHealth Series 👇
A project involving @PUCancerInst researchers is looking at how the intricate process of folding proteins can go awry, leading to errors that are found in #cancer and other diseases. https://t.co/wi1R0JnlQX

[Salk Institute @salkinstitute]

It's Valentine's Day and Professor Tony Hunter has been "going steady" with Salk for 50 years now.

On Feb 21, join us in celebrating his half-century legacy at the Salk Institute. Lab alumni, colleagues, and other luminaries will share their science, memories, and tributes to this legendary cancer biologist.

Learn more about Hunter's remarkable legacy: https://t.co/CguiCdPC0A

@DrDorSalomon @TAUMedFaculty Dor, this is WONDERFUL news - congratulations!!! So well deserved!

[elevyLab @ElevyLab]

I am thrilled to say that our work is now online @CellCellPress ! I've analysed protein structures for quite some time, but @Robb_Mallik, who co-led this work, took these analyses to yet another level - 🧵👇

[Steven Salzberg 💙💛 @StevenSalzberg1]

Is this real, or is it excessive AI hype? New paper claims that an AI foundation model achieves experimental-level accuracy in predicting gene expression even in previously unseen cell types." I'll read the paper, but don't believe it for a second
