1/46 Hey folks, we have a new paper out on the MuLTEE. Strap in and I’ll tell you the story of how this “little paper on polyploidy” turned into the most data rich paper our lab has produced, largely thanks to the leadership and work ethic of @kaitong25.bsky.social.

Imagine how much more healthy science would be if we hired and promoted faculty based on their mentorship, instead of merely counting pubs and grant dollars. 🧪
Academic hiring criteria are all wrong
The most important criteria are: mentorship, mentorship, and mentorship

En un #28F de hace 2 años escribí un pequeño hilo en Twitter para hablar de una enfermedad rara que, cada día, lo es un poco menos: el síndrome de Lamb-Shaffer. ¿Os parece si hacemos un poco de mudanza y me lo traigo a Bluesky? 📦

Día Internacional de Concienciación sobre el Virus del Papiloma Humano (VPH)

El VPH es una de las infecciones de transmisión más comunes y una de las causas principales de cáncer de cervix pero con prevención y control podemos reducir sus riesgos. La vacunación y los controles regulares son claves.

How scientists can drive climate action: celebrate nature and promote hope
After years of storytelling and running classes and festivals, I’ve seen first-hand how a love of nature makes people want to protect it.

Estos días me acuerdo mucho de mi profe de química @chemoski.bsky.social. Muchos de mis alumnos de tercero de carrera siguen utilizando reglas de tres para calcular diluciones y no saben utilizar factores de conversión.

Y lo peor...¡es que les enseñan así un el lycée y la prépa! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Biología molecular:

Extraes la proteína, la cuantificas, corres el gel, lo transfieres a la membrana, incubas con los anticuerpos, revelas y es un burruño feo.

Bioinformática:
Pasas un día instalando paquetes y al fin lanzas la tarea en el servidor. Dos días después falla por falta de memoria 😅
