I am participating with this image in the #ReproBioArt contest organised by @ssrepro.bsky.social. It depicts the fascinating, unusual, and still largely misterious internal organization of a human #egg. If you like it, please vote it here: woobox.com/m89t4p/galle... Thanks for your support!

Honoured and extremely humbled to give a talk at @buckinstitute.org. It was an amazing day of great interactions, I was highly impressed by the depth of the scientific discussions. And I so much loved the place! Thank you so much Malene and Francesca for the invitation! @nuduncanlab.bsky.social

We were honored to host Dr. Gabriele Zaffagnini @gzaffagnini.bsky.social who visited us from @CECAD.bsky.social in Cologne, and spoke about his exciting work on proteostasis in mammalian oocytes.

This is very serious. How I see it is that a lot of people have spent a lot of public money to buy these products based on counterfeit data. This is false advertising at best, and the law protects consumers from this type of fraud. I hope there will be legal consequences for the perpetrators.

The Thermo Fisher situation keeps getting worse. We've now collected 450+ problematic images presented as verification data in TF's antibody catalog. This includes: 🖌️ Dozens more images with duplications or painting 🖨️ Hundreds of blots that all share the same background (behold slideshow below)

I was looking at the open peer review file of a paper - for which I wasn't involved at all in the review process - and I noticed that some comments of one reviewer are identical, and I mean word-by-word, to my comments to a previous version of the same manuscript for another journal 😲. 🧵1/2

Looking forward to soon see these images, decontextualised and maybe AI-manipulated, in some social media post claiming proof of #chemtrails...

Reducing aircraft soot emissions may not reduce contrail clouds, according to in-flight observations of emissions from a passenger jet with modern ‘lean-burn’ engines, reported in Nature. Contrails from aircraft contribute to the climate-warming impacts of aviation. go.nature.com/4s3Fnmx 🧪

This is figure 4, which shows contrail ice particle numbers decrease with decreasing total particle emissions (non-volatile and volatile), independent of the combustion mode.
