Big moves happening at @BetaScience’s #IMR. First @illumina MiSeq i100 Plus in Canada will start to churn data in the new year, adding to 17B reads already generated on their MiSeqs. Congratulations!

You may, respectfully, agree or disagree with Netanyahu’s general politics. You may, respectfully, like or hate him. Whatever your beliefs may be about him, his courageous speech at the UN was nothing short of factual! Am Israel Chai

@hahussain Would be great if @davematthewsbnd read this.

No you're not standing on a higher ethical ground for crying foul over kids dying in Gaza. You are liars who are trying to use their death to shield Hamas from eradication. If you really cared about these kids, you'd be enraged by Hamas for starting the war and you'd be shouting for Hamas to surrender and end the war. You love Hamas, a racist Islamist radical armed violent group. You hate the West and the Age of Enlightenment. You are exploiting freedom of expression to undermine freedom of expression itself. Let's substitute Enlightenment thought with Islamism and see how far your liberty and freedom will go. You don't have the stronger claim or argument or idea. You're with the criminal gangs -- Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis -- and we are with life, liberty, the rule of law and civilization. You'll not shame us. We will shame you.

@DrTonyKwan I’m told rapid and random laser pointer movements are also key to success!

Making slides for my first real talk in over 10 years. It's like riding a bike, right?

@robertson_mtl Where, oh where, did you see these bad boys?!?!

Jumbo oysters!!!

Fantastic ad.

An Arabic proverb says: Every container oozes what's inside of it. The Free Palestine mob, always keen on proving to the world that it is the victim, yet always bullying, harassing, breaking, swearing, shouting, cussing, giving the finger. Is this the image that Palestine wants the world to see? A bunch of thugs? Maybe if we gave these young ladies some Qassam rockets, they'd have thrown them on Montreal's Jewish and Israeli students? Shame :(

@DrCriCru @Vetenskapsradet Way to go, Cristiana!!

I'm so grateful to the @Vetenskapsradet for funding my lab with a Starting grant. Looking forward to the next 4 years of discovering the placenta's connection to mental health. Will be recruiting for this project asap.

@JPablo_Neuro @Vetenskapsradet @karolinskainst @StratNeuro Well done, Pablo!!

Very proud & happy to receive a VR Starting Grant from the Swedish Research Council to investigate how novel and rapid-acting antidepressants work using state-of-the-art methodologies. Skål!! @Vetenskapsradet @karolinskainst @StratNeuro

@DonaldVinh You’re not alone, @DonaldVinh! Check out Kipa Keeper.

My Jewish peeps: Am at a Jewish wedding. How do you keep the keepah on?? Clip not working (follicularly challenged). Is there special scalp-friendly glue?? 🔯wardrobe malfunction

An extremely important speech from a great man. A must watch.

Show me ONE pundit or Arab rally, in Arab countries or in the West, where Arabs or Palestinians say they want peace with Israel. They chant slogans that they want to die for Al-Aqsa and want the world to stop Israel's decimation of #Hamas. Odeh is either clueless or spinning, and NYT doesn't bother to fact-check. #Israel Knesset MK Ayman Odeh: "The whole of this nation of infants — Jewish, Arab, Palestinian, Israeli — wants just one thing: to grow up to a good life. It’s a simple dream. Our role as leaders is simple too: to make that possible." nytimes.com/2023/10/19/opi…

Hamas founder's son, Mosab Hassan Yousef: Israel is doing the Palestinian people the greatest favour by freeing Gaza from Hamas. Watch the whole interview. twitter.com/golli_nmrk/sta…

Following an analysis by the IDF's operational systems, a barrage of rockets was launched toward Israel, which passed in the vicinity of the hospital, when it was hit. According to intelligence information from a number of sources we have, Islamic Jihad terrorist organization is responsible for the failed rocket launch that hit the hospital.

@JPablo_Neuro @alon_chen_lab @WeizmannScience @SilberbergGilad Thank you, Pablo, for sharing this!

"In the face of darkness, let our voices be the guiding light". Powerful words from @alon_chen_lab and the @WeizmannScience Management.

@JPablo_Neuro @ECNPtweets @KorosiAniko @carmensandi10 @jfcryan Congratulations, Pablo!!!

I had a wonderful time in Barcelona attending @ECNPtweets. Wonderful scientific program! It was great to see so many friends and make so many new ones. I'm also very honored to have received the 2023 ECNP Rising Star Award from @KorosiAniko. See you next year in Milan!

@courtprice @AirCanada Not sure what’s funnier - the tour of Canada or @AirCanada thinking its flight will be on time and you’ll make each of those tight connections!

Lol when @AirCanada cancels your one way Vancouver to Toronto and tries to send you on a tour de Canada instead

@jensomics @KimminsSarah @McGraw_Lab Headed to PEI this week and was definitely planning on eating some! Thanks @jensomics for the note about Canadian waters! I’m somewhat reassured… 🫤

@KimminsSarah @McGraw_Lab Vibrio vulnificus requires the water to be at 20C for growth, so it is rarely found in Canadian waters, even in the summer. But with climate change this may change. Also most (percent in the high 90s) people who succumb have severe underlying conditions.

It's Vibrio season! Eating raw oysters from warm water will always pose a risk of infection, even if the restaurant processes them well. The number of infections will increase as the climate warms and "Vibrio season" lasts longer and moves further north. nationalpost.com/health/man-die…
