Submit your abstract by April 10 for what is sure to be an outstanding Southeast Society for Developmental Biology Meeting May 18-20 at Kennesaw State University www.sdbonline.org/sesdb2026 @socdevbio.bsky.social
Definitely two. I think there's even history about a "pop" version the label pushed vs the stripped back one the band wanted.
Been hearing some horrifying chatter about dealing with the new #NIH common form and #ScienCV system, so I put together a short video with some tricks for mitigating some of those pain points.
Hope it helps? 🧪

In this installment of Meet the Minds of CDIB, Robby Van Sciver, Ph.D., discusses his research on polycystic kidney disease and cilia biology using mouse models.

Cells are labelled for tubulin (magenta), mCLING (cyan) and DNA (blue, DAPI). Image from Olivier Mercey and Marine Brunet in the Guichard-Hamel lab. See article by O. Mercey et al. (jcs264260).

Going to #ASHG25 #ASHG this week? So is our Deputy Editor, George Inglis! Please reach out to him at gsinglis.bsky.social or by email (george.inglis@us.nature.com) if you'd like to talk about your work. He'll also be part of an editor panel on Wednesday (Oct 15) from 11:45AM-1:15PM
A summary of NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya's comments during his visit to UAB today for a town hall style presentation:
-Important for scientific work addressing our nation's health problems to be done in the same communities where those problems are concentrated
The goal of a PhD is not to learn some facts or read a few papers or learn a bunch of techniques. The goal of a PhD is to learn independence, problem solving, how to finish things you start, resilience, & gain the ability to adapt & think creatively. Learning these things is hard.
So proud to know you! And I'm equally grateful to you for your mentorship, training and support
We're live! @inikon.bsky.social used modular proximity labeling to identify ciliary EV cargo in #celegans. This EV-TurboID approach can be applied in cell- & tissue-specific manners to define the composition of distinct EV subtypes, a major challenge of the EV field.

How and why did Inna Nikonorova isolate and profile individual ciliary extracellular vesicles? Learn more here, at the behind-the-scenes blog by @inikon.bsky.social
LOOK at how few white counties there are on this map.
Almost EVERY county in this country loses with the White House's proposed cuts to health research 🧪
For over 40 years, we have driven research in efforts to find a cure for PKD. Now, a 57% cut to CDMRP funding threatens that progress. Urge Congress to protect this critical funding, PKD research depends on it!
Take action now: p2a.co/5rwekfw
The 2025 PKD RRC Symposium is almost here! See our 2 day agenda full of exciting and innovative talks! For more details, visit our website at pkd-rrc.org or www.scgcorp.com/PKDRRC2025/
@standupforscience.bsky.social #StandUpForScienceATL was so empowering. Great speakers and lots of cars honking in support too
#StandUpForScience2025
Unlike the people taking a chainsaw to institutions, the people working at these institutions are real patriots, who have worked their entire careers to keep the US at the forefront of science, to protect against threats, natural and man-made, to ensure a high quality of life for all Americans.
Sure, one of those jobs is mine, but we are doubling the value of that investment! Protect public support of science!
📢 Atlanta! Time to stand up for science!
Why? Because science is for everyone.
Join us on 3/7 from 12-4 at Liberty Plaza- Georgia State Capital

Interested in primary #cilia, #microtubules, #protein trafficking, molecular #signaling, #GPCRs, and #ciliopathies?
We are looking for a #postdoc and a #PhDstudent to apply advanced #biochemistry and #proteomics methods to study cilia.
Check out our website and send your application until March 10.
The fact that Brian Lea on behalf of the DOJ argues in defense of cutting NIH funding that "Diversity of viewpoints ultimately lead to a better decision"...
Thank you for sharing this in real time.
