This paper is finally out and I'm so glad we were able to dig into the extensive @HivSwiss data to look into the use of hormonal therapy in cis women and gender minorities with HIV and its association with variations in HIV markers!

[Chloé Pasin @ChloePasin]

How to include sex and gender considerations in infection and immunity from basic science to clinical practice, precision medicine and public health policies ? We discuss this in our opinion piece, initiated during an amazing workshop in 2022 @CHelveticum

[Esther Park @Esth3rPark]

First first-author paper is live!! So excited that the story is out and got to provide more insights into RQC in B. subtilis! I had an amazing time with this story with amazing collaborators.

[Aparna Banerjee @AparnaMicrobio]

How I published 0 first author papers during my postdoc (0 publication from postdoc):

1. My postdoc supervisor never supported me on anything
2. I had imposter & I self-studied
3. I self-studied until I get own funding & stable job

Thankful that life threw me in difficulties!

[Danielle Beckman @DaniBeckman]

How I published 1 first-author paper during 2.5 years of my post-doc:

- I collected all my data and learned how to become a scientist.
- I read like a normal human being.
- I write like a normal human being.

Seems to be paying off.

Five months ago, holding the hand of my child I embarked on a courageous journey, leaving my comfort zone to start a new career as a #newPI in India. The transition wasn't without its hardships; the stress of navigating a demanding career path took a toll on my health. (1/2)

[Daria Amiad Pavlov @AmiadDaria]

So happy to share this work!
Could not have done it without the support of team @Prosser_Lab and the exciting collaboration with @LammerdingLab, @ShenoyLab, and Jain lab.

[Whitney Stevens-Sostre, PhD Boricua 🇵🇷 @StevensSostre]

Hey #BIBPSRollCall! I’m the Founding President of #BlackInBiophysics, a neuroscientist and biophysicist. 💪🏾 As a #postdoc I study the roles of voltage-gated ion channels in the mammalian retinal circuit using #ephys and high-res imaging 👁️ I’m also a proud wife, mom & stepmom 🥰

[Crystal Stackhouse @xtalstackhouse]

Super excited to share my undergrad work in Nucci lab @RowanUniversity @RowanResearch 🧬 We characterized #nanoparticles that adapt to maximize protein encapsulation. #researchpaper #biophysics

Characterization of 10MAG/LDAO reverse micelles: https://t.co/HzN8tn12ve

[mia @mia_rosenfeld]

check out our preprint where we detail our all-atom modeling and simulation of respiratory mucins!

[Claudia Efstathiou @ClaudEfstathiou]

We are really please to have our paper on Long Covid subtypes out today in @NatImmunol. This project worked with @PHOSP_COVID cohort to delve into what is different in those with persistent symptoms. https://t.co/1K1k56pvZC
Here's a short thread on what we found:

[愛理沙 @AlisaIakupova]

grateful that there are people willing to address topics on sex and gender in immunity @ChloePasin at @MDC_Berlin 🥲👏🏻 made me think again that the research on women’s health is under appreciated

[Kylie McPherson, PhD @KylieMcPhD]

Company: As the next part of the interview process please provide 4 references of previous employers.

Me….a 32 year old postdoc in the lab I did my PhD in….who’s only other employer after my teen years (and undergrad) was my post-bac advisor a decade ago:

[Breanna Rogers @breannajrogers]

To the people calling me a “DEI” and saying that it’s good that I was rejected, you can leave your racism at the door. I am a McNair Scholar and NIH IRTA Post-Bacc who graduated with honors. And, thanks to sheer spite ALONE, I’m reapplying to PhD programs again next cycle.

[Breanna Rogers @breannajrogers]

I got my final rejection for the application cycle and I really cannot help but feel defeated. I feel like I’ll never get into a program.

[Shakira Hobbs, PhD @ShakiraRHobbs]

@DeborahSills @Momademia I did a little research and found the graphic. It’s actually a lower number for married mothers and it look like it’s higher for single women. This however doesn’t discredit the challenges single women face.

[Mothers in Science @mothersinsci]

Our research shows that ~50% of mothers globally decline at least half of opportunities to attend conferences after becoming parents (N=3995). To help overcome these challenges, we launched a flexible Caregiver Travel Grant. Apply now! Deadline March 24👉 https://t.co/lOJVIDT9xq

[Dr. Kaia Mattioli @kaia_mattioli]

been sporting a cute new accessory in the lab lately! baby boy expected in February ✨ veryyyy grateful that Massachusetts offers paid family leave & my colleagues have been very accommodating during my pregnancy

[Anindita Brahma @aninditabrahma_]

We have our first single-cell paper on the ant olfactory system! 🐜
We show that ants regulate odorant receptor expression from large tandem arrays in a very different way than what is known in fruit flies and mice!
@DanielKronauer @Dom_Frank3 @patKpiekarski @RockefellerUniv

[Marlies Oomen @meoomen]

What started as a seemingly contradicting observation in mESC and human differentiated cell lines, then became a bonus thesis chapter, is now on BioRxiv! https://t.co/gXPw9MYgdK
