@ascbiology.bsky.social 's Women in Cell Biology (WICB) has yet another fantastic event today at 4pm, room 126A. A networking panel on "Thriving in Uncertain Times: Navigating Career and Funding Challenges". #cellbio2025.
We take advantage of the characteristic geometries of dendritic spines--their saddle-like necks and bulbous heads--to eliminate (or at least significantly decrease) the need for the painstaking work of manual image segmentation.
#cellbio2025 The Women in Cell Biology (WICB) Committee has put together some truly fantastic events for this year’s meeting! We can’t wait for you to check them out:
Today, our animation synthesizing decades of research on actin-mediated endocytosis in budding yeast was published: journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/... The result of a fantastic Iwasa-Drubin lab collaboration. @margotriggi.bsky.social @jiwasa.bsky.social movie.biologists.com/video/10.124...
Are you an early-stage graduate student (2nd or 3rd year) or early-stage postdoc based in the US or Canada, working primarily in Drosophila? Would you like to help improve the experience of all trainees working in Drosophila research? If so, read on. (Please repost to reach a broad audience.)
Dear all, A scientist from UNC Chapel Hill, Paul Maddox, is running for congress in NC for a seat currently held by a republican. If you care about science (and democracy) please consider donating to his campaign #Standupforscience secure.actblue.com/donate/paul-...

Political parties must shift immediately and dramatically to the left to avoid alienating these frustrated and abandoned young women. Am I doing this right?
19thnews@19thnews.org · 10mo agoOur recent poll found that women 28 and younger skew substantially more left than the national average. Nearly 80 percent of Gen Z women want abortion to be legal and seven in 10 want gender-affirming care to be accessible for trans adults.
A university that signs the “compact” is one that acknowledges its own inability to compete and succeed based talent and merit. It would signal insecurity and mediocrity to current and future students and faculty. Say no. Recruit the best people, protect their freedom and support their hard work.
Despite the mess, we are grateful to be funded, have exciting science happening, and have an opening for a postdoc! If you are interested in sensory biology and esp in cilia, thermosensation, or interoception, and would like to join an interactive & supportive group - please email. Please RT 🙏

The New York Times piece today about US science is terrible and wrong—in many ways. I could write a whole article about this, but as one example: “To close observers, the original crisis began well before any of this…” No. I’m a close observer of science, and this is incorrect.

Confused writing is usually a symptom of confused thinking. As we struggle to clarify writing, we clarify our thoughts. AI writing aids rob us of that struggle, leaving clean-looking text and thoughts still confused for lack of inspection. Writing is not just a product; it is a diagnostic tool.
