#JobOffer 💼 Research Engineer (M/F) 📆 October 15th 📍Institut Jacques Monod, @sandraduharcourt.bsky.social 🔗 emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/U...

I have been thinking since yesterday about why I find the 1% thing so, so disturbing. It's a visceral reaction of 'just no', which goes beyond the general yuck towards the enshittification of/via AI. I have finally put my finger on it: it is the feeling you get when

Join is in Budapest in October! For the 6th time, all things epigenetics, gene and genome regulation and more. A fantastic opportunity to present, to talk to speakers and colleagues in a friendly, informal setting at a great location. Please note, travel grant deadline will expire soon.

📢 We are looking for a Junior Group Leader to join us at @institutcurie.bsky.social! Having joined the department just over a year ago, I can honestly say that it is an exceptionally stimulating and supportive scientific environment, filled with outstanding colleagues — all in the heart of Paris.

As someone who(se students) is waiting for reviewer reports for 5 months, I am willing to pay a lot more than this for a fast and legitimate report. However the question rather is: why don't we reimagine the scientific evaluation process altogether?

It's funny how we stigmatize being wrong in science. There's nothing better in science than being wrong and getting to change your mind about something. Any day you were wrong is a day you get to learn something new!

Very excited to share our newest findings! A very long team effort pursued by multiple team members -to frantically reproduce everything over and over-, we show mTOR-Polycomb synergy at promoters of developmental master regulator TFs in ESCs prior to their expression. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Hello all, our lab is recruiting a PhD candidate to study how 3D genome folding impacts gene regulation in development. We're located at the Center for Integrative Genomics department of the University of Lausanne, Switzerland. Please email me if interested. #PhDPosition, #PhDOpportunity
