Meet the PyShell!🥧🐚 Diatom pyrenoids fix up to 20% of the Earth's #CO2🌏. We discovered that their Rubisco is encased in a tight protein lattice that is essential for efficient carbon fixation and cell growth🌱
Super excited to share our new preprint📜: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
A Protein Blueprint of the Diatom CO2-Fixing Organelle biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Beautiful work from @mackinderlab - an exciting developing story on unique pyrenoid structure and CCM mechanism of diatoms!
Examples of how post-Roe America by denying the role of abortions in safe medical care creates dangerous choices for patients and doctors: nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…
The medical reality of reproduction is vastly different than in 1787. The progress in reproductive medicine has benefited babies, moms, and families tremendously. Why does the court of our nation deny that progress in their decision? nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…
BWF is pleased to announce the launch Climate and Health Interdisciplinary Award. The award provides support for collaborative exploratory work that opens new ground for comprehensively assessing or mitigating the impacts of climate change on human health. bwfund.org/news/bwf-launches…
Scouting/ "trolling" for fresh ideas, esp if you're changing directions from more established research. "Been there, done that" and excited to help someone else make the transition!
Excited to be a supporter of the newly launched Hypothesis Fund and its peer/network-driven approach to funding bold basic science research.

Co-recruiting with my statistics magician friend, Julia Salzman, for a #postdoc in #Genomics diversity @Stanford in #BayArea. She's got the statistics/computation and we, the molecular bio and strange organisms. Keep reading for more info.
You are risk-taking, familiar with computational biology or genomics but focused on using bioinformatic predictions from the study of virus’ and simple organisms to test biological hypotheses about the mechanism and function of diversifying sequences in viral or protist genomes.
The candidate will work in an interdisciplinary environment spanning genomics and experimental biology. Interested candidates should send their CV, a statement of interest to Julia Salzman julia.salzman@stanford.edu and Ellen Yeh ellenyeh@stanford.edu
