A postdoctoral position in microbial pathogenesis is available in the Machner Lab at NIH. Help us determine how Legionella pneumophila modulates host cells during infection. For more details go to nichd.nih.gov/research/atNIC…
Hmm. . .Is this another threat? This has already been a tough year, and the new Jewish year is only 3 weeks old. Can't seem to go more than two days without existential threats being laid out.

I got to do two of my favorite things: talk to Dr. Fauci and wander around a drug store during work hours.

Prof. Carolyn Bertozzi won the Nobel Prize for establishing the field of bioorthogonal chemistry. What is that? Glad you asked …
"I understand the gravity of being a woman and now a #Nobel laureate in the sciences. There aren't that many of us—yet." Prof. @CarolynBertozzi on chemistry, mentorship and representation ⬇️
Virtual @NICHD_NIH summer 2022 research students and their direct mentors! Great to mentor/conduct virtual research with this group of students and other @NIH labs — @storzlab and @MatthiasMachner! This year we are analyzing E. coli TN-seq data to find new genes/gene functions!
This is a BFD.
It only took me six years since creating this account to set it up. Let the fun begin.
