A day before receiving the EMBO grant, my spheroid formation "failed"...

Instead of spheres, I got a rabbit 🐰

Maybe the universe was hinting that good things multiply when you least expect them 😁👌🏻

I don't share much here, but last week I received the official acceptance for the @EMBO Scientific Exchange Grant, a prestigious fellowship supporting short-term research exchanges.

Next stop: Madrid 🇪🇸, joining
@Vicensella lab!

Thanks to @FrantisekStaud for the support!

[Neil Renic @NC_Renic]

Being an academic means asking the tough questions, like "why did I agree to this?" and "what was I thinking?"

Looking forward to EPG 2024 starting today in Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic

A problem in science academia unfortunately is that many scientists would rather get a big grant than make a big discovery

I'm so proud of my uni mate for dropping his 1st author paper! 🔥

From proving the doubters wrong to smashing it! Congrats, brother!! 🎉❤️

[Ali Haidar @the_ali_haidar]

Lovely news mid-vacation,
My first, first authored paper from my PhD is out !
Co-led with amazing Anne Ramat, we dive into the link between germ granule opposing functions in translation and their organization in different phases using STED and suntag 1/8

Excited to share our latest publication in #Placenta🔥Primary trophoblasts offer valuable insights into placental functions💪. We summarize the isolation and stable culture method of cytotrophoblasts isolated from the term human placenta. https://t.co/WIE0kzLUMF

Science Twitter- has anyone noticed a huge decline in actual scientific content on here in the last few months? I barely ever open the app now to see what's going on, as it's all weird culture war stuff, politics, ads, etc.

Feels like science twitter is nearly dead.

1. Just wrapped up an amazing experience at #EPPW 2024 in #Rotterdam! It was my first time representing after attending last year. Grateful for the wonderful "#placenta family"—received valuable feedback and smart suggestions. Looking forward to next year!

2. Had a fantastic time exploring the architecture of Rotterdam and the charming town of Gouda. Such stunning sights added to the memorable experience of #EPPW 2024.
