Radiality Analysis of Single Puncta (RASP) is a new image analysis tool, from @BFU341, @JSCBeckwith and @SteveTheChemist. It removes false positive spots from fluorescence images, improving the accuracy of single biomolecules in complex backgrounds. go.acs.org/9b8

Three quarters of Brits now too poor to marry a foreigner
It is deeply unconservative to say that only people earning above the 73rd percentile of the income distribution can live with who they love. A very very misguided policy.

Excellent thread detailing the detrimental effect the increase of visa costs will have on the quality of research and education at UK universities. – at Cambridge, England
The UK is planning on massively increasing visa costs. Currently a researcher looking at a 5-year Global Talent Visa, together with their partner and two children, needs to find £13.4k. All up front. A big ask. But that’s now slated to increase to… **£20.9k**

Point 1001 on the list of why the UK has become so incredibly unattractive to young, talanted and qualified people from abroad (especially the EU) after brexit: – at Cambridge, England
How are the govt going to fund paying public sector workers more? 'The fee for migrants applying for visas and accessing the NHS will go up - that will raise over £1bn,' Rishi Sunak explains. trib.al/V3uq6gO 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602

I am German, moved to the Netherlands to study at university and have now moved to post-brexit UK for a PhD. I like a lot of things about England. All these policies are doing is making the UK deeply unatracctive as a place to settle for me and other Europeans in my position. – at Cambridge, England
