The Biophysical Society of Canada is pleased to announce that Dr. Sarah Rauscher @sarahrauscher.bsky.social is the recipient of the 2026 Early Career Investigator Award. Congratulations!!

BSC is calling for nomination of the Trainee Paper Award (Deadline: Mar. 14). The nominee must be a trainee who is a leading author on a research paper of exceptional quality, originality, and impact in biophysics. For more details, visit: biophysicalsociety.ca/awards/train...

BSC is calling for nomination of the Doctoral Thesis Award. We recognize the achievements of doctoral trainees in biophysics who defended their theses last year with exceptional quality. Be sure to submit your nomination by March 14. For more information, visit: biophysicalsociety.ca/awards/docto...

Out today in @physrevresearch.bsky.social: "Information Thermodynamics of Cellular Ion Pumps", led by Julián Jiménez-Paz (@cornelluniversity.bsky.social), with @davidasivak.bsky.social (@sfuphysics.bsky.social)!

Reminder of the upcoming abstract deadline (March 7) for the Workshop on Stochastic Thermodynamics!

@davidasivak.bsky.social · 7mo ago

The seventh annual Workshop on Stochastic Thermodynamics (WOST VII) will be held May 18-22, 2026. This workshop is entirely online and free to attend. 10-minute lightning talks will be chosen from 1-page abstracts, with priority given to early-career researchers.

Delighted to share our recent article published in @pnas.org! Provided insights into the shape of the lncRNA RMRP & identified two motors — DDX5 and DDX3X — that help it reach the mitochondria. Without them, RMRP is trapped in the nucleus, disrupting mitochondrial genes. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Congratulations to all the trainee award winners at the BSC 2025!

Great #zebrafish talk on tissue biomechanics going on at the @biophyscanada.bsky.social meeting @mcmasteruniversity.bsky.social given by @manningresearch.bsky.social #bsc2025

The 10th BSC annual meeting just wrapped up. We sincerely thank Cecile Fradin and the team of local organizers and volunteers at McMaster for making this a successful event! Looking forward to next year in Winnipeg!

Excited to share another upcoming conference: Methods and Applications in Fluorescence (MAF 2025) 📍 August 24–27, 2025 | Montreal 📍Abstract deadline for talk consideration: May 12 📍Abstract deadline for poster presentations: June 2 📍Early registration deadline: June 25 For details: maf2025.org/en
