🎉 Exciting News! 🎉 Our manuscript "Comparative Analysis of HMC3 and C20 Microglial Cell Lines Reveals Differential Myeloid Characteristics and Responses to Immune Stimuli" is officially published! 🧠✨ @phdwhodances @Trypto_Ben doi.org/10.1111/imm.13…

Worth remembering. The hardest (and best) skill to learn during a PhD is to normalize this: your work may be the very best, have extreme relevance to your field, and still be rejected due to circumstances out of your control. Stings. Learn to move on.

Had the best time performing with @sitcancer’s band, #TheCheckpoints @AACR annual reception last night! #AACR25 🤘🎹 @RPachynski @jasonlukemd @ipimama123 @BReinfeld @sitcancer @DocsWhoRock

At yesterday's opening ceremony, we asked the cancer community to stand together to make their voices heard in support of innovative cancer science and medicine. #CancerResearchSavesLives® #AACR25

Super excited to be here again for the American Association for Cancer Research 2025. Happy to catch up with some old friends and say hi to new friends/colleagues. 👋 #AACR25 #AACR2025

Have you felt this way during your PhD?  (credit to the artist @adamtotscomix )

Good 😬

#NIH #NCBI #PubMed all offline !!!

OK PubMed is down It's run by the NIH and the main way to search for academic papers. If this isn't a temporary thing , and is a Trump/Musk doing, academics around the world are royally screwed right now.

There must be a German word that encompasses the simultaneous feeling of relief and dread. Google recommends Weltschmerz 🤔

When it comes to tumors, the terms “malignant” and “benign” carry very different implications for diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes. #Glioblastoma

@SA_genomics is proud to be sponsoring @ASImmunology this year! Great turnout to the spatial transcriptomics workshop last Friday 🎉 Together the group explored analysis of #Visium, #STOmics, and #Xenium data. Nice to make some new connections in the #SpatialBiology space.

JUST UPDATED: our massive database of POSTDOC fellowships is available for download. We list 383 different fellowships with description of the award, eligibility criteria, deadline and amount. A fellowship gives you more freedom Download for free here: research.jhu.edu/rdt/funding-op…

🔥 Finally! Just launched the R color palette finder 🚀 🎨 Explore 2500+ palettes, see them in action, get the ggplot2 code. ➡️ r-graph-gallery.com/color-palette-… 🙏 @joseph_barbier and @Emil_Hvitfeldt for the paletteer package! Useful? Bug? Feature request? Let me know!
