My paper is out! It describes SIGNAL, a hit selection analysis platform that prioritizes candidates from omics data by using 2 cutoffs and integrating pathway and network databases in such a way that the trade-offs of each are offset by the other. authors.elsevier.com/a/1cnyd8YyDffI… THREAD⬇️

Hey @popcorners wtf is this chip I just found in a just opened bag? Do I need to be concerned that my child had some chips from this bag? What is it?!?!?!?

@Camila_SerBar @NatureComms Was there a difference between mothers pregnant with males versus females (given the role estrogen in the finding)?

Can’t believe our new @NatureComms paper is out! ✨🧠🤰 We tracked a cohort of 179 women before, during, and post-pregnancy, revealing a U-shaped trajectory in the mother’s brain structure linked to steroid hormone fluctuations and maternal attachment. #ParentalBrain 🧵👇

I’ve said it before and l’ll say it again, neglect is a form of trainee abuse. If you don’t have the bandwidth to effectively mentor, don’t take trainees. And if you see neglect, don’t say it’s due to busy PIs or big labs - that’s excusing bad behavior & discounting the trainee

@atyourgate JFK airport is not showing up on the app now! What’s wrong @atyourgate ?

@PhilipMessing Glad to hear. Similarly was on the phone for two hours, but got a rebook in the end. Safe travels onwards

@2Bistheanswer Praise the Lord! After waiting nearly 90 minutes for someone from Delta to pick up. I was FINALLY able to re-book an afternoon flight to LaGuardia Airport for my brother and I. Thank God for minor miracles! #2Bistheanswer

Finally! At approximately 6 p.m., my brother and I were booted off #Delta jet diverted from Pittsburgh to Albany (instead of JFK Airport); two hours later, #Delta gave me back my luggage. Arrived at hotel (in Clifton Park, 12 mi away) at 9:20 p.m. Still need to re-book to NYC!

@LisaIronTongue At the beginning of the performance the announcement said that they have many first time opera goers. If this was my first opera I wouldn’t want to come back. 3/3

@LisaIronTongue Seeing Frau this afternoon was one of my worst opera experiences. The entire story women are either threatened with death or asked to prove their value via reproduction. Why did we need to see so many machetes on stage?). 2/

Opera companies can keep trying to make opera singers more like pop stars, commission flashy productions, do bug marketing campaigns, if the only way to do opera is to continue retelling the same terrible misogynistic stories (like Strauss’ Die Frau Ohne Schatten) opera will die.

Insult to injury, David Hockney’s staging is stilted and has the caliber of a high school production (add zero to the production other than making the “other worlds” have an Asian aesthetic/costume while “this world” of humans look European). The roles are also terribly miscast.

Coming back to Twitter with the hope that @SFOpera will see this. The decision to put up Die Frau Ohne Schautten, a misogynistic, rape filled, Stockholm syndrome opera (exhibit A: only two characters have actual names in the show, both are men) is gross. I’m so disappointed.
