I love a good conference, but it makes no sense to me that we're often taking away remote options when these have the potential to reach out to a much wider audience. During the pandemic, I virtually attended so many smaller overseas conferences that I'd never been able to.

This is a great thread by Ben introducing you to the books we’ve been working on over the last couple of years. I would love you to take a couple of minutes to read it and to share. As a non-sciency person I’ve LOVED finding out about the amazing worlds of The Gene and The Cell. – at Exeter, England
Calling all teachers, educators and librarians! 🚀The new #Explodapedia series of science books lifts off next week (@DFB_storyhouse, me & @MooseAllain) Since it's a brand new concept in non-fiction publishing, we just want to say a few things by way of introduction🧵1/n

Would highly recommend working with these great people.
Come and start your own research lab in Nottingham! I can highly recommend both the world-class research (especially Optics and Photonics 😃🔦🔬) and teaching environments. nottingham.ac.uk/jobs/curren…
NERC just sent an email out recognising that the cost of living increase means its PhD stipend isn't sufficient to live on. Their solution isn't to increase it, it's to suggest students start selling Avon and sign up to clinical trials... @ARIES_DTP @UKRI_News @NERCscience

Congratulations to #xavierlabalum Bernard Khor on an elegant study that applies novel analytic methods to show #DownSyndrome as a lens to understand immune #aging and #autoimmunity! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3502…
🔎 Researchers at @BRIseattle, led by Drs. Katharina Lambert and Bernard Khor, used deep immune phenotyping to shed light on immune dysregulation and inflammation associated with #DownSyndrome. Read about the #ImmuneClocks 🕰️ used in the study: bit.ly/3flacQG
