Wonderful news! Parafilm M rules! Very well-deserved recognition after helping so many other #NobelPrize winners achieve their breakthroughs! Congratulations @ParafilmM
Doing science today feels like playing a video game on legendary difficulty. With shrinking budgets, extreme publication fees, subjective rejections, and daily lab chaos, the path of a scientist is tougher than ever. At least we have Parafilm to hold it all together. Stay strong!
Nice PhD opportunity for the mitochondria lovers
PhD Opportunity - I am recruiting a student to investigate mechanisms of co-transcriptional RNA processing in human mitochondria. This is in collaboration with @hauke_hillen and is funded by the DFG @dfg_public . Deadline 3 January 2025. Apply below⬇️: bit.ly/3Z2VS5M
Last week I had the opportunity to participate in the REACH S2SC-Award 2024! It was an incredible experience to present my Startup project, Plantman, which focuses on using plant-derived proteins to treat neurodegenerative diseases. 🌱🧠 #S2SC2024 📸 ©Thomas Mohn

Plants have an efficient clean-up system. Ernesto Llamas (@neto_flames) at @UniCologne reported that a chloroplast protein reduces harmful protein clumps of huntingtin, a Huntington’s disease protein. Leaf through our TS Digest to learn more: bit.ly/3uJGUXz
Thanks for inviting me! I had a great time!
Amazing sessions I & II of Career chats! We have the opportunity to connect with science communicators as @sketchscience, publications prereviwers, consulting advisers from @BayerPharma, or @preLights community managers. Go and chat with them!🧡
Is your sample playing host to a ghost (of dead cells past)? Soup-er news ahead! You can now decrease false positive results with the iQ-Check Free DNA Removal Solution by @BioRad! Ensure those phantom DNAs rest in peace, leaving your PCR happy and as fresh as a garden salad!…
Ernesto: We got the cover @neto_flames @sketchscience!!! Super happy to share the issue with great colleagues such as my benchmate during my postdoc times @William_Mair and current/former Cologne neighbours @petertessarz @ChrysaNikop
🗞️Our November issue is out! Read about #spermidine in reproductive aging, methylation and heterochromatin in #HSC aging, #neovascularization, and much more. 🎨 Image courtesy of Ernesto Llamas, cover design by Lauren Heslop. nature.com/nataging/volum…
