On this day in 1879, Maud Menten was born in Port Lambton, Ontario. In her work as a medical researcher, she became a leading expert in histochemistry and enzyme kinetics while fighting against sexism in her field. Let's learn more about her life! 🧵1/10
...and kudo to Karina Machado and @dkoes.compstruct.org for their winning predictions and to @karlasatchell.bsky.social for the unwinding assays!
The CACHE #2 preprint is now online: bit.ly/3DyCmHN Active learning and fragment growing delivered confirmed hits. A citizen scientist using the Fold-it gaming interface designed the top compound! Kudos to Sasha and Madhushika @thesgc.bsky.social at the bench. @conscience-network.bsky.social
This excellent commentary is a must-read for cancer biologists (and all biologists, really). Probing cancer with small-molecule tools—Progress and challenges: Cancer Cell www.cell.com/cancer-cell/...
Our Cancer Cell Commentary reviews progress on chemical probes since Arrowsmith et al. (Nat Chem Biol 2015) and the launch of the Chemical Probes Portal. We highlight key issues, propose solutions, and outline a path to a quality probe for every human protein. #ChemicalProbes
Do you know (or are you) a senior scientist in the USA who might like to move to Canada in the near future? The 2026 call for CERCs (Canada Excellence Research Chairs) was posted last month: 🧪 ⚛️ 🔭 🇨🇦
Canada Excellence Research Chairs - Home
The CERC Program offers eligible Canadian degree-granting universities the opportunity to establish research Chairs at their institutions in research areas that are of strategic importance to Canada.
