Er staat ons een tsunami aan transgender personen, journalisten, rechters, advocaten, feministen, wetenschappers en ander tuig te wachten. Wat dat betreft blijft extreemrechts een wonderlijke stroming:ze zijn tegen vluchtelingen, maar ze veroorzaken er zelf een heleboel van: youtu.be/I3r1uG66J5E?...
While our bodies seem static, our cells are constantly changing shape or on the move during tissue homeostasis or wound repair & even more dramatically during embryonic development, during events like gastrulation. Defining how cellular machines mediate these events is a key task for our field 1/n
You wanted starter packs to be searchable. Our engineers are busy keeping us online, so in the meantime, an independent developer built a new searchable library of starter packs. This is the beauty of building in the open 🦋
Is this the pettiest it is possible to be in an academic article?
Feedback is in awe of the authors of a new study in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, and how they handled requests from peer reviewers

Anyone knows a good set of validated T-cell epitopes? Meaning epitopes that definitely showed a good T-cell response.
I've used IEDB in the past but maybe there are other valuable resources?

I really enjoyed my conversation with @hamiscalculated.bsky.social for the @smbmathbiology.bsky.social podcast #BiologyInNumbers. She has a delightfully poetic way of talking about how she approaches a research question.
Find links to her episode and more here: smb.org/podcast

The podcast logo consists of a square where the left half is blue and the right half white. There is a wave form across the top. The text reads Biology in Numbers podcast, and the Society for mathematical biology logo is in the bottom right.
I suppose now is a good time to introduce #BiologyInNumbers, a #SciComm podcast I have the pleasure of directing, producing & hosting. Thought up by then-President Heiko Enderling, it's a means to learn about @smbmathbiology.bsky.social and research from its members and the wider #mathBio community.
ALSO! We are hiring for the last open position (Bioinformatics Research Scientist) in the TIRTL group! Love coding, math, robotics, and uncovering the immune system's secrets? You know you do, so join us! (stjude.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/stjude/job/M...).
Ah, that kind of paint ;-)
So did it work?
Agreed! What is your number 1 dogma we should rethink?
Fun fact: it's even pretty fast and good for (interactive) simulations!
All the trains towards the protest against the budget cuts were full, so we’re taking a detour in this relatively empty train.
This plan will not save money. This plan will cost money. It will cost - EVERYONE - money.

Don't expect a magic bullet (doubt there is one) but I really like estimation plots for this kind of thing: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
I think they are even in Prism nowadays but in R you can make & customise them easily as well
#SameSameButDifferent! For too many years we overlooked sex differences in #immunology (& most trials are done in males). Check the new paper @ Strati, Facciotti, Lattanzi &co. We def need understanding more about sex-dependent differences in (onco)immunology! rb.gy/j5tre2
Honestly that's fine by me 🤷♀️
Color theory is so cool! I've been watching some videos but most of it is still a mystery to me... You an artist?
Sarcastic comments and dog pics definitely welcome as well :)
That was mostly me misquoting George Box, but I'm always happy to chat about modelling!
It feels so much like the old twitter! Let's see... And I'm from the Netherlands, how about you?
🙏 Thanks! :)
Aww 😻
Maar het gaat nu ook wel hard. Met nareis op nareis.
En de meesten komen van X en daar hebben ze genetisch toch andere normen dan hier.
Sommigen hebben zelfs een dubbel account, dus dan weet je ook niet waar hun loyaliteit ligt.
Accurate.
How do T cells reach melanoma brain tumors?
Using in vivo microscopy 🔬🐭, we discovered a new route for T cells to enter the brain via distinct peri-tumoral venous vessels.
We recently published this work in Immunity: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...
Since I promised some cats: Me figuring out who to follow on BlueSky.
Yes, because we have coffee
Thanks! So far so good :)
And ofc started my first post with a typo... 🙄 But maybe those bluer skies will include an edit button?
Cover of textbook. Photo of path in a forest. Text overlaid saying 'Introducing Mathematical Biology, An Open Education Resource by Alex Best'
As my follower count creeps towards that of the old place, an unashamed plug for the FREE online textbook I wrote for #mathbio students. 'Introducing Mathematical Biology' is FREE, interactive, accessible and FREE. Please feel free to share with students. sheffield.pressbooks.pub/introducingm...
