thank you Senator Young for speaking up from the Republican side of the aisle in support of funding scientific and medical research “𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘺𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘴𝘶𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘭𝘺 𝘧𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘭 𝘪𝘯𝘷𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘣𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘤 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘥 𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩 𝘢𝘴 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘶𝘢𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴”
Opinion | Funding for R&D isn’t a gift to academia
Investing in scientific research and development is vital to U.S. security.

Lab Question: We’re getting a lot of non-specific staining with an HRP-conjugated Anti-His Antibody from Thermo in our Westerns. Anybody have a positive experience with one from a different supplier?
We have a PCR that only works when I do it. Not sure what that’s about
This just reminds me of when the Pope said there are too many f*gs in the Vatican
Casey Newton@caseynewton.bsky.social · 2y agoMy favorite part of Zuckerberg's Joe Rogan interview is when he suggests there is not enough masculine energy at his company, where two out of every three employees is a man.
The majority of my thesis work is in this paper and it’s great to finally have it out for review. Spores have a lot of potential value as protein carriers in vaccines, catalysis, and more. We dreamed up some new methods, synthesized a lot of DNA, and tested >20 new spore proteins for display.
Nair (Synthetic Biology & Systems Bioengineering) Lab @Tufts@nair-lab.bsky.social · 2y ago🚨🆕New manuscript🆕🚨from the lab!! Started by @biotechalchemist.bsky.social and completed by Todd Chappell. This work assesses the utility of >30 #spore coat proteins for #surfacedisplay - almost 3x currently described! We found that SscA is a great carrier not used before‼️ biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...
Picking up an old flow cytometer from a shuttered startup like a puppy from the pound, exciting, but I’m worried it’s going leak all over the floor.
