Great article about EvolvingSTEM & Dr. Abigail Matela's leadership to infuse dozens of schools w/ authentic microbiology research experiences that demonstrate evolution in real time.
We've engaged more than 11,000 students over 11 years! 😅 🧪 🧫

A study in Nature Aging shows that the strongest Alzheimer’s Disease risk gene, APOE4, can make certain brain cells in young mice hyperactive, which can predict later memory decline. The study also implicates Nell2 protein as a contributor to APOE4-driven dysfunction. #Alzsky 🧬🧪

The documentation is pretty detailed, I think. So you should be good if you reference that. Only thing I can add is to suggest playing around with the --disentangle-time-limit flag. Set it to super high so that get organelle doesn't give up on the graph due to time (unless you're in a hurry).
I personally prefer GetOrganelle: github.com/kinggerm/get....
mtGrasp is another one I've heard good things about: github.com/BirolLab/mtG...
Welp, didn't realize transparent backgrounds became black when I posted the logo 😅

We are accepting RFPs! We are looking to fund projects that will have a measurable impact in reducing indoor transmission of airborne pathogens. Projects that might be applicable: - detection and screening systems - deploying tools to improve IAQ - ventilation and air quality standards - indoor air infrastructure PHAN logo Terms and conditions apply. Please visit phan.global
March 31st is the last day to submit requests for proposals for projects with measurable results in reducing indoor airborne pathogens. Possible projects include breath-based multi-pathogen detection systems, HVAC compliance verification systems, and indoor air infrastructure deployment.

Any immunologists looking for a 1yr staff scientist job in NC?
I’m not sure if I’m staying at UNC past 2027 but I’m feeling the weight of accumulating experimental backlog.
Ideally already in the area, experienced in T-cell assays like IFNg ELISpot, ICS, MHC multimer flow, &c
Have you assumed/learned that DNA damage repair (DDR) via the SOS pathway (LexA, RecA, etc.) is universal (in bacteria)? turns out it's more a maze than a 'pathway'...
