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)

The contrast between the number of media requests I got when rich people on a cruise were facing a deadly, but contained outbreak versus now that some of the poorest people in the world are facing a deadly and devastating epidemic is just so so stark and it just really annoys the hell out of me.

Kyiv is freezing. Hundreds of buildings are still without heating or electricity after Russian attacks. Temperatures are dropping to −20°C. Elderly people and families are freezing inside their homes. Ukraine is Europe. This is what Russian terror looks like in the 21st century.

An international research team headed by the Bozdech lab at the Nanyang Technological University and the Gilberger lab (BNITM @uni-hamburg.de) at CSSB reveals the global landscape of protein-protein interactions that govern the biology of the malaria parasite. Find out more: t1p.de/puyln

Our malaria complexome paper is finally out! We mapped the P. falciparum malaria complexome in asexual blood stages, validated a couple of new complexes and investigated the dynamics of protein complexes across the IDC! A short thread (1/14). bit.ly/4om8kIu #malaria #proteomics #teammassspec #CETSA

MAP-X reveals distinct protein complex dynamics across Plasmodium falciparum blood stages - Nature Microbiology

MAP-X is used to map protein complexes in P. falciparum, identifying previously undescribed interactions, revealing stage-specific dynamics and predicting moonlighting behaviour of subunits.

Just a reminder that Germany was the center of scientific progress until the Nazis suppressed, drove away, or killed all the non-Nazi scientists.

Instead of valentines this year, I’m sending copies of this tiny little book to family and friends. If you have not read it, get two copies today— one to keep and one to give. The first lesson: Do not obey in advance. The second: Defend institutions. It could not be more relevant.

I am planning to switch from DDA to #DIA for our proteomics experiment on Orbitrap Exploris. Question: FAIMS yes or no? If I do not use FAIMS for library generation, can I use it for DIA measurements? Or the other way around? #massspectrometry #proteomics #teammassspec

Thank you so much to whoever put this very comprehensive list of #science Bsky starter packs together. This is just amazing: docs.google.com/document/d/1...
