My question for #researchers in the fields of #biology , #genetics , #medecine , etc... is are we going to be ready for the possibility of #PubMed and other #NIH online databases and services becoming one of the many casualties of the current #US administration and its increasingly unreliable #HHS department?

This is an interesting opportunity for the broader international research community to create a more distributed, resilient alternative. Scientists, citizen or otherwise... any ideas? #phd

Hello #Biology and #Neuroscience Mastodon, does anyone has recent successful case for host MCSA postdoc fellowship?

Time for a new #introduction!

I'm a former #geographer & #mapmaker, now working on a #PhD project in digital #archaeology, between #Prehistory and #openSource #geospatial.

I used to work as an #artist, I'm into #sailing (I was #livingAboard during a few years) and #musicMaking is my happy place. I'm also a happy #dad and I'm fluent in fr, en & es.

Finally, I'm the proud admin of https://Mapstodon.space, a great #Mastodon instance dedicated to maps — & full of decent and interesting people!

I am at the stage of my #PhD where I'm writing dystopian micro-fiction that reads like a news broadcast, thank you for asking.

Hacer un doctorado en ciencias tiene un poco de apostolado.

Hoy, como #orientadororgulloso me doy el gusto de compartir el #preprint del segundo artículo del doctorado de Cristina Parada.

Poco se sabe del gen Ptr, aunque perderlo es, casi seguro, una condena a muerte antes de nacer (afecta seriamente los músculos, y probablemente el desarrollo del sistema nervioso entre otras cosas).

Usando moscas de la fruta, un bichito conveniente y barato, Cristina y un gran equipo descubrieron que una mutación en Ptr altera la maduración y dinámica de las células del sistema inmunitario.
Cuánto pueda decirnos esto de alteraciones más profundas del sistema inmunitario está por verse, pero es sin duda un hallazgo importante.
