My cat and her namesake.

Hey look it’s my fellowship proposal

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

Decided I’m going to do a shot this weekend every time someone in my family asks me when publications are coming. Please pray for my liver.

Who needs a lap desk when you have a cat? Now with 100% more claws.

@shaunoboyle Hello friends! Queer enby molecular biologist / wannabe structural biologist. Supposedly I’m here for the scicom but I mostly tweet about my cat 🤷🏼‍♂️ which I guess is pretty on brand.

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

Happy #LGBTQSTEMDay buddies! I don’t have any photos of myself so please have a photo of my cat and a pie chart representing my brain this Monday. If that’s not queer then I don’t know what is.

the pretense that more androgynous/masc appearing women somehow get less sexism in the academy or society is at direct odds with literally every way society makes fun of butch, androgynous, or not-femme-passing women

Really did not need this level of unexpected violence from Abcam so early in the morning

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

@thuronyi That’s completely consistent with our data.

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

please read my new study: high affinity binding of cat to the laptop active site results in competitive inhibition of work

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

@thuronyi Structural characterization of the free inhibitor was challenging due to extreme heterogeneity. We conclude that cat is highly labile in solution. Please see attached selection of unusual structures captured by our imaging technique.

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

@thuronyi You’re so right, should have included the free inhibitor. Please see attached supplementary figures 1-4. Our functional characterization is that cat is very cute.

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

@hur932x @SuperScienceGrl If this would allow us to calculate kcat, truly revolutionary

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

@Dr_Savage_Sci Not sure if ours can bind cooperatively with another cat, but can definitely bind two humans cooperatively! Look at how these two active sites are both completely bound!

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

@Dr_Savage_Sci Wow, double inhibitor! Do they bind cooperatively? Very novel.

Fig. 6b: Kitty tv. Squirrels and chipmunks are preferred by this inhibitor, but other inhibitors may have a greater affinity for birbs.

Fig 6a: a heated bed (pls only use those specifically for pets, human heating pads are not safe). Providing heated beds at a concentration 2x the concentration greatly increased occupancy.

@abbydommer @chem_christian 😂🤣😂

@MontanaCropDoc Another allosteric site!!

[Emma Sedivy @NonstopEmma]

@schwelo A new binding site!! Fantastic.
