Check out our recent work on RBBP6 in Cisplatin-resistance of cervical cancer cells!

[Prof. Melvin Ambele ملوین @ambelema]

Together with @shezimel and team, we showed the importance of Retinoblastoma Binding Protein 6 (RBBP6) expression in cervical cancer cells sensitivity for treatment with Cisplatin https://t.co/7qVynM8AQl #mdpicells via @Cells_MDPI

Postdocs are qualified scientists, please.

[Jennifer Polk, PhD (she, her) @FromPhDtoLife]

Is it perfectly fine to refer to PhD students and postdocs as "trainees"? 👀

[Pontsho Moela, PhD @shezimel]

Congratulations Minenhle! To think I was part of this graduation procession and man oh man, you closed the ceremony with such a banger!

[Pontsho Moela, PhD @shezimel]

This is not a retraction statement nor an apology. Also, you corrected your so called misinterpreted remarks with Pandor. Go back to the media and “correct” your remarks with the SAn public as well, this time with a clear & an elaborate statement.

For PhD students it's a good idea to gamble on new PIs, on average they are more into it. I often see that the first graduate students that join a lab end up being really successful.

[Pontsho Moela, PhD @shezimel]

Perfect timing, right?

Our new study shows that data availability statements are not very useful; 1670 (93%) authors who indicated that data are available on request either did not respond or declined to share their data with us. Journal of Clinical Epidemiology: https://t.co/4IT2Dgphl4
