Increasing funding to #GradStudents and #Postdocs is the most urgent funding issue in Canada-they haven't had a raise in 20 yrs! I am so disappointed in @cafreeland @JustinTrudeau & @FP_Champagne - #Budget2023 contains nothing to support these researchers #SupportOurScience 1/3
BREAKING: Bill 124, the #onpoli wage cap bill, has been declared unconstitutional. From ruling: "As a result of the foregoing, I have found the Act to be contrary to section 2(d) of the Charter, and not justified under s. 1 of the Charter."
Thrilled to announce the Phillips lab is opening @UCSF in Sept! We’ll be developing high-throughput methods to examine how molecular properties of viral proteins & antibodies constrain their evolution/coevo. If interested in joining, please reach out! aphillipslab.ucsf.edu/join-us
Why do some mutations' effects seem to depend on starting fitness? We developed a Cre/Lox CRISPR gene-drive system ==> expanding gRNA array, to pop open the hood on 'global epistasis'. @cwbakerlee, @shulgina_kate, @jireva in @MichaelMDesai lab. Read here: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Apply for a funded, early-career researcher place at our in-person #BiologistsWorkshops ‘Genotype to Phenotype: Bridging Comparative Genomics and Cell Biology’ organised by Gautam Dey @Dey_Gautam & Eelco C. Tromer @EelcoTromer Find out more & apply: ow.ly/4t7Y30saL4s
Today my paper with @Ribosaur on new genetic codes comes out in @eLife! It's been a labor of love over the past five years. Highlights in thread 🧵 (1/6) elifesciences.org/articles/71402
My group at @AshokaUniv is currently looking for prospective Ph.D. students in #ecology and #evolution. Interested students can write to me for details about the ongoing projects. Visit our lab website sites.google.com/ashoka.edu.in/…
Anybody using an interactive/smart whiteboard that they are truly satisfied with for education/science communication purposes? Any recommendations?
Several immensely talented postdocs will be leaving our lab within the next year. I wanted to make it clear (to folks involved in selection/grants committees) that they all *own* the work they've done here & they'll take it *all* with them, of course (it's theirs!).
Our new paper makes the surprising prediction that dividing asymmetrically could enhance the population growth rate of cells with strong size control. @min_jiseon @EvolvingMurray @Ariel_4321 journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…
Excited to share our work on spontaneous whole-genome duplication (autodiploidization) in budding yeast, published in #G3journal @GeneticsGSA. In short: A single gene, SSD1, has a strong effect on autodiploidization. academic.oup.com/g3journal/adva…
Now online, a study in collaboration with @LeopoldParts in which we asked how often natural variants can suppress deleterious mutations So what did we find? embopress.org/doi/full/10.15…
For a PhD student, choosing a good lab is 10 times more important than choosing a particular topic to study
Local hospitals in and around Mysuru and my villages in India have run out of PPE and oxygen. My family is running a mutual aid network for both these hospitals and critically ill and poor patients. I am trying to raise money here from anyone who is willing and able to donate.
Very happy that our paper on identifying molecular features associated with function in disordered regions was accepted for publication today in @eLife ! What started as the last chapter of my PhD thesis is all grown up: elifesciences.org/articles/60220😌
