Tired of wondering why conference speaker panels are not more diverse, Fred Hutch Faculty member and #latina @CterminiPhD , decided to do something about it. She created the Atlas of Inspiring Hispanic/Latinx #Scientists . bit.ly/3zZjNKT

Tiny gatekeepers of our nucleus decide what gets in and out. Follow our study on Yeast and Mammalian NPC baskets and unravel the molecular structure of these cellular bouncers! Don't miss the side-by-side comparison in the video. #IntegrativeModeling biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Proud to share the result of an amazing collaboration with Javi Fernandez-Martinez, @RoutLab_RU , and @TheVillaLab ! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Congrats to @dgvjayS @neeleshsoni03 @JoshHutchings94 @ig_ech and the team! And check out the video by @neeleshsoni03 ! #NPC

We stand in solidarity with postdocs and graduate students in their bargaining with the University of California. We fully support a lawful and fair bargaining process. We believe that researchers should think about their science, not how to pay rent.

In this new preprint we systematically compared SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Omicron) during infection using global proteomic and genomic analyses to understand the molecular responses driving viral evolution 🧵👇🏾biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
