It’s finally out! Together with @embopress.org and
@reviewcommons.org, we conducted a structured side-by-side comparison of human peer review and our AI scientific review (see thread 👇👇👇🔥).
Friends, if anyone is looking for an electron microscopist outside of the US, I'm listening. Open to any country, regardless of weather. Can do cryo, room temp, image anything from tissues to nanoparticles, viruses, catalysts, etc. Thanks for any lead(s).
ChimeraX daily builds can predict small complexes of proteins, nucleic acids and small molecules using Boltz on your Mac, Windows or Linux computer without Nvidia graphics. www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/dat...
Please share with people interested in arbovirology. We are looking for an enthusiastic colleague to strengthen our team please share if you know of scientists interested in arbovirology, ready to make a move to Rotterdam! www.academictransfer.com/en/jobs/3508...
Hoy se cumple 1️⃣ año desde que el USDA notificó la primera detección del #GripeAviar #H5N1 en ganado vacuno en EEUU.
Desde entonces, se han declarado brotes en 989 granjas de vacas en 17 estados y la infección se ha confirmado en 41 trabajadores (36 en California).
Va hilo.
Many US students don’t know how to seek opportunities outside the US. With some help from our colleagues in EU and Canada, we could put together a consolidated website of PhD opportunities and scholarships outside the US, organized by field. There might still be time for this year in some places.
PLOS has issued a statement on recent US Executive Orders and scientific integrity.
We are determined to stand firmly behind our mission, our values and our principles, and against any attempt at censorship or undermining of the core principles of scientific inquiry.

Madre mía... qué deprimente es todo.
Esto es una denuncia social💢
Es el relato estremecedor de un compañero sometido a amenazas.
Un precio muy alto por hacer un trabajo científico y comunicativo esencial.
Cabe una reflexión como sociedad.
No es un hecho puntual. El impacto es grave⚠️

Many thanks to many people, but especially to Kevin Maringer for hosting Blanca for three months in his lab and to the external evaluators, who I won't name but are around. This is also what science is all about, meeting good people and working as a team.
New doctor in town! Terrific exposure and defense. And she is actively seeking for a postdoc position 😉😉.
Good people and good scientist.
Congrats, Blanca!!!!!
I'm still digesting yesterday's talk by Luis Flores at the congress organised by @enzoem.bsky.social
Monkeypox in Africa, where OneHealth is so evident.
Starting the last sessions with Luis Flores talk about Mpox
Laura in action. Very good presentation, congrats!!!
Margarita del Val talking about the PTI+ Global Health
@enzoem.bsky.social
Go! First International Congress ENZOEM. One Health.
Laura (from our group) will talk about our results on Bagaza virus: propagation from wild samples, adaptation to cell culture, subcellular localization...
Me llaman de un programa de TV nacional para debatir con el exfutbolista Javi Poves sobre si la Tierra es plana o no.
Obviamente he dicho que no, porque:
1. Está en un libro de primaria.
2. No se debe tratar desde la equidistancia.
3. Dará igual lo que se le diga, no es una cuestión racional.
Que, por otra parte, es un serión!
Gracias a los informativos de Castilla-La Mancha Media por dar visibilidad a la campaña 'Colección Ratón Pérez' 🦷✨, un proyecto de ciencia ciudadana que une a niños, familias y ciencia para avanzar en el estudio de la salud y evolución humana.
¡Gracias por el apoyo! 🙌

Siempre olvidamos el gran impacto que está teniendo la gripe aviar H5N1 sobre la biodiversidad global.
Estamos viviendo un evento de mortalidad de fauna salvaje masivo con cifras récord. No sé si hay registros de algo semejante en la historia reciente.

PhDs in biochemistry, structural biology, pharmacology, or similar, located in the US and with strong publication track records and a high motivation to solve Parkinson's, please send CV directly to me at jimhurley@berkeley.edu.
Repost appreciated.
Hello everybody!
There is an open call for postdoctoral contracts in Spain.
Feel free to contact me if you are interested in studying those tiny things that have RNA instead of DNA, that mutate so much and that use cells as supermarkets.
We are looking for new group leaders. If RNA is your thing, and/or computational biology and you want to start your own group, check out these links. Feel free to contact me about these!
And, please help me spread this. Thanks!
