Finally posting the second illustration I did for this collab, just in time for #sciartportfolioweek! Here I'm depicting different "career paths" for Cas9 - various applications of CRISPR technology.
I recently did some illustrations with @MiSciWriters for @ESPAumich's 2022 Consensus Conference on Human Gene Editing. Here's the first illustration: how Cas9 (blue) can act like a pair of scissors that helps treat diseases! Read more here:

One of the latest releases on @PDBeurope just HAD to be a #render of the week in #Blender3D: #CryoEM structure of the Caveolin-1 8S complex (PDB 7SC0, EMDB 25007) by @Mel_Ohi_lab et al.
Playing around with sunset-like settings for another project, which fits nicely here too!(1/3)
The Didychuk Lab website (https://t.co/f044sitUkF) is live, and the lab goes live July 2022! We're recruiting at all levels, reach out for details 📨

Who hasn’t had issues cloning 😅 This project is based on a comic a friend shared with me. Unfortunately, the original comic appeared to be anonymous, but I’ll share it in an effort to attribute proper credit.
Here is an alternative to BioRender that is TRULY FREE and actively maintained. Over 1500 vectorized images sorted by license type (all creative commons or MIT). Fully editable icons and soon they will launch an Inkscape library. Please RT.

Ever wonder how bacteria make you sick? In our latest post, @jacquelynrire writes about (and beautifully illustrates!) injectisomes, which some bacteria use like needles to inject disease-causing proteins into human cells.

This Thanksgiving, we're serving up science! Our latest post by @ReneeConway discusses how human embryonic stem cells are collected for use in scientific research & the ethical implications of this process. Illustration by @zoecyeoh:

This is my final week as a breast cancer research scientist at the University of Manchester (after 10 years 😢). I’m leaving due to lack of funding, and although I’m really excited for what comes next, I don’t feel I can walk away without a final thread…
Sharing some work in progress for #sciartportfolioweek. This is a small infographic with some of the tools I use everyday for #cryoEM to solve protein structures. Need to add a clipping station.
First keynote speaker for today: Dr. Brenda Bass
@BassLabUtah@UofUBiochem is speaking about how self and non-self dsRNA is distinguished in vertebrates and invertebrates! #umichrna

When the FDA authorized Moderna’s #COVID-19 vaccine, many wondered: how was this #vaccine developed so quickly when others take years? Read our EIC's live-blog piece on U-M RNA Seminar featuring Dr. Melissa Moore of Moderna Therapeutics for an inside look. https://t.co/svV47yoWof
