Loved chatting to @drshanerrr.bsky.social on @3rrrfm.bsky.social Einstein-A-Go-Go. Took along my 7yo: “Mum, I can’t believe you were on the radio!” Talking #innateimmunity, #virus #infection and #inflammation research at @hudsonresearch.bsky.social Particularly our recent #MDA5 study. #scicomm

Thank you to everyone who shared our Executive Director search last week! As our effort takes off, 2 more positions are now open: a Clinical Trials Regulatory Manager and a Clinical Coordinator Please share with anyone who might be a fit!

#WIMMReads 🧪 From the Rehwinkel Group: new study suggests MDA5 can act as a cellular “guard”: during viral infection, it senses disruption to the cell’s own RNA processing — not only viral RNA. #Immunology #Academicsky @rdm.ox.ac.uk @medsci.ox.ac.uk

Two post-doc positions available in our lab! It is a supportive environment and on which boosts careers! Historically, of our ~30 post-docs 27% have gone on to tenure-track positions, 27% did another post-doc, and 42% have gone on to positions in biotech or pharma.

Most basic science departments at UCSF are having faculty searches this year. Biochemistry & Biophysics, Microbiology & Immunology, Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology, Physiology and more. We're looking for new and exciting science and nice people. You'll find them all at aprecruit.ucsf.edu

At this rate we're going to need a curated list of which commercial antibodies are reliable at all... 'The latest search (...) reported that he had found more than 18,000 further questionable images associated with antibodies sold by 15 companies, and released a database of them.'

More than 18,000 questionable images found in antibody catalogues of 15 companies

Science sleuth’s findings raise questions for researchers working to improve the reliability of commercial antibodies.

Our antibody providers are involved in the mass production and presentation of fraudulent western blot "validation" images. Scientists would be fired for dojng this - why do antibody providers get a free pass?

Reese Richardson@reeserichardson.bsky.social · 2mo ago

A massive update: At least ~15 companies~ are selling scientists antibodies using faked validation data. We've documented 18,000+ manipulated images on 17,000+ products sold by leading laboratory suppliers including Thermo Fisher, Abcam, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Millipore Sigma and Bio-Techne. 1/🧵

Omg!!!!! I’m horrified, but yet again, completely unsurprised. When the Thermo antibody saga was unveiled a few months ago, I was wondering how widespread this was and where it was coming from.

To all students sending their applications my way! Since like last year or so, virtually ALL applications (internships, theses, …) sound basically exactly alike. The ones I always read and forward to my group to see if we find a supervisor are generally those that read different and hand-crafted.

I love this bacterial immunity field, it’s so cool! The bacteria have already done all the cool #innateimmunity pathways
