Time to give hydration breaks the red card? What science says about keeping cool

Inappropriate use of cooling breaks in sport is undermining trust in heat-health research.

Happy to share my first postdoc collab. We had the chance to contribute to Olivier Van Acken's lab excelent research in the regulation of touch signaling. It's very exciting to see one of my big phosphodata sets out there 😄 contributing to the world of MAPKs rdcu.be/frwd0 @psb-vib.bsky.social

A sequential MAP kinase cascade regulates mechanical signalling

Some of these Pokémon-inspired fake papers are hilarious. Just looked at the references. Epic. biomedgrid.com/fulltext/vol...

Sedation and Twilight Anesthesia Induced by Ascofregata Purin Song

Twilight sedation suppresses the central nervous system to enable surgical procedures for which general anesthesia is not necessary or permissible [1].

Love this on so many levels. When I was an undergrad in the Biotechnology program, we always joked/dreamed of using genetic engineering to make the first real-life Pokémon ever.

For Pokémon’s 30th anniversary, Nature spoke to scientists from around the world about how their work has been shaped by playing Pokémon games, watching animated TV series and films and trading cards in school playgrounds. 🧪

I wonder who will come to Ghent this year for "At the forefront of plant research (4th edition)" 🙂🌱 www.vibconferences.be/events/at-th...

Today at the #ICAR2025 my super talented student Gloria presented our work at @alaingoossenspsb.bsky.social lab on the phosphoregulation of JA signaling! Great work, Gloria! Congrats! 🥰🐣

Thanks, Mary, for organizing such a lovely dinner =) Go AFEs!

I've been so busy I forgot to share our group photo from dinner last night with current and former @plantphys.bsky.social Assistant Features Editors (Sara, Guada, Aida and Janlo) and friends. #ICAR2025. Spending time with early career researchers make me feel good about the future!
