Fascinating subject - also important to look at chemosensing and the host response of mammalian cells to bacteria.

Why do bacteria talk to each other? Julie Valastyan (Bassler Lab, @Princeton) studies cell-cell communication to understand how bacteria behave, in hopes that scientists can one day design new therapies to combat bacterial infections. 🧫🧠

Let me tell you a story about golf balls. Not just any golf ball—but the Titleist Pro V1. The ball you probably grew up believing was the best. But here’s the thing: is that reputation actually earned? Or are they just really good at marketing? 🧵

A chondrocyte cell experiencing laser optical force in fluid flow measured with Laser Force Cytology (LFC). LFC measures 2 dozen biophysical and biochemical parameters for every cell in real time. It's used for quantitative predictive cellular analytics throughout biomanufacturing of vaccines, cell, and gene therapies. lumacyte.com

Interesting and worrying at the same time… AI draws on existing knowledge and by definition peer review of papers is new work, so how can AI ā€˜judge’ appropriately?
AI is transforming peer review — and many scientists are worried Artificial intelligence software is increasingly involved in reviewing papers, provoking interest and unease. nature.com/articles/d41586-0… @Nature

A paralysed man can stand on his own after receiving an injection of neural stem cells to treat his spinal cord injury. The Japanese man was one of four individuals in a first-of-its-kind trial that used reprogrammed stem cells to treat people who are fully paralysed. nature.com/articles/d41586-0… @Nature

Presented brand new @LumaCyte data @BEBPA US Bioassay Conference in Long Beach, CA this past Tuesday. We showed initial data correlating Laser Force Cytology measurements of PBMC with the killing efficiency of CAR T products - a very important step to improve the efficiency of manufacturing for this important cell therapy!
