Worm friends, we need your help! For the next C. elegans Mentor Match cycle, we’re gathering testimonials from past mentors and mentees.
One of our biggest challenges is recruiting new mentees, and hearing directly from past participants could really help.
Please record a short video, and share!
One of my go-to resources for many different reliable & inexpensive antibodies! 🧪🫶
Attention scientists from all over the world🙃

Grand finale of my Effective Research Communication course.
Students learn to write an intro, give a 12-minute talk, and present a poster.
They also pitch their research to a lay audience.
These Rutgers STEM majors are our future scientists, doctors, health professionals. The future is bright!
Excited to share our new paper in Science Advances @science.org
In this work, we uncover how a disease-linked TRPC3 mutation, together with a cerebellum-specific splice isoform, stabilizes the channel in an open state, drives Calcium overload, and promotes neurodegeneration. (1/4)
Posting on behalf of (soon-to-be) Dr. Samira Monshietehadi (not on Bluesky) -- "I’m very excited to announce that my PhD thesis project is now a preprint! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6.... We show how Müller glia engage with growing retina vasculature in an activity-independent manner."(1/11)
Do you know any students who are planning to apply to graduate school this cycle? Encourage them to apply to the Biology Preview Program! We provide intensive workshops to help students w/ their applications + 1:1 mentorship.

By the way, @dshb-antibodies.bsky.social is a non-profit that sells quality antibodies to many proteins at exceptionally reasonable prices, without AI generated faux-validation images. Check them out.

Someone in the news departments of @nature.com or @science.org needs to take a look at this--its a huge scandal from the scientific supplier that has become a monopoly

Earlier this week I posted an example of a fake western blot provided by ThermoFisher to demonstrate the validity of a p53 antibody. I considered it an amusing curiosity. In fact Thermo Fisher Scientific has systematically manipulated antibody validation data!
