Also extremely pleased to see one of my longest term projects during my postdoc in press! This work focused on characterizing different snail mucins, and so much time and effort went into this by all of the coauthors, especially @SlimeSupreme nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

I was on a field excursion with some crocodile keepers and I told them I do molecular biology and they said “man that’s chemistry hahahaha” like it was an insult and i haven’t been hurt like that since

Only amateurs use paper towels real biologists do math on your other glove 👋🤌
90% of molecular biology is pipetting very tiny amounts of clear liquids from one container to another. The other 10% is doing math on paper towels. Some days I think I should have listened to my mother and become a wizard.

What software do you currently use to create figures for your manuscript? We are thinking about putting together some tutorials 🧐 #sciart

Fascinating new preprint on bioRxiv tackles a whale of a question: Whales are huge. So why don’t they get a ton of cancers? biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
