An NIH advisory group announced today that they're recommending the agency boost its minimum #postdoc salary to $70,000, up from the current $56,484. Many postdocs feel "underpaid and overworked," a co-chair said. My latest for @ScienceInsider: science.org/content/article/…

Banyan Tree in Lahaina smoldering at the base, but still standing. Just about the only thing left, other than the Lighthouse.

Opossums pretending to die the moment they come under pressure is so real of them

How hard is it to do science in a language that’s not your first language? We quantified the severity of #languagebarriers for non-native English speakers when reading/publishing papers and attending/presenting at international conferences. doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio… 1/9

No pew pew. We blame cartoons for this misinformation, but we need you to know that porcupines can't shoot their quills. Apologies if this alters your worldview.

IFN-g plays a key role in cancer immunotherapy. A new study by Walsh et al. found that in the presence of viral vector-driven IL-12, IFN-g, through multiple cell types & mechanisms, maintains tumor control even in the absence of MHC I or cytotoxicity. (1/) cell.com/cell-reports/fullte…

We need to talk. Opossums just don't eat nearly as many ticks as folks have been led to believe. It's not the opossum's fault - ticks just aren't a great food source. You understand, right? 📷 Jessica Bolser/USFWS

⚖️ New hires remain predominantly men in 75 of 107 fields, particularly in STEM So… 📢 Without continued efforts at the hiring stage, the changes in women’s overall representation from 2011-2020 will likely soon plateau, as cohorts hired 20+ yrs ago move toward retirement. /11

Mexican researchers have discovered conjoined gray whale twins in Laguna Ojo de Liebre, which is just off the Pacific Ocean, near Baja California Sur. Twinning is a rare occurrence in whales, and conjoined twins are even more exceptional.
