Join us in a fun, crazy and interesting interdisciplinary research project that combines protein biophysics, evolutionary genomics, biomolecular archaeology, and textile research to resolve species identity and post-translational modifications in the structural proteins collagen and keratin

🚨 HEADS UP: If you haven't submitted a comment on the OMB proposal yet, there's still time - but it's running out! There are only 2 days left to push back against Russell Vought's attempt to give political appointees unprecedented control over federal research funding. Take Action: zurl.co/qTjQP
Graphic from Stand Up for Science urging action on a federal funding proposal. Large text reads: "2 Days Left" and "Help Us Stop Vought From Destroying American Science." A portrait of Russell Vought appears beside the U.S. Capitol. A banner along the bottom reads: "Submit a comment on the OMB proposal | Link in bio to take action." The Stand Up for Science logo appears in the top left.

Did you write your comment yet on the OMB rules on federally funded science yet? No? Don’t worry, you can do it this weekend. Here are some resources that can help you get started.

If the proposed OMB rules pass, the Trump admin could strip funding for scientific researchers at any time if they decide a project no longer fits the "national interest.” Have you filed a comment yet? The deadline is Monday, July 13. #AcademicSky

Acquisition news for bottom up and top down proteomics with Thermo acquiring Proteinaceous and MSAID. Proteinaceous was founded in 2016 (possibly earlier) as a spin out from Neil Kelleher’s lab at Northwestern. MSAID was spun out from Mathias Wilhelm and Bernhardt Kuster’s labs in 2019.

Quick PSA: If you are planning a trip to Fairbanks this upcoming aurora season, the extra hours of darkness in Dec-Jan likely won't help you. In Fairbanks under quiet conditions, auroras usually don't start to appear until 9-10 pm.

I'm working on a quickstart guide for people who want to plant native plants, but don't know all the things to consider when choosing plants. I think this is inherently challenging due to the absolute mountain of caveats that goes into doing this properly. However. Here's where we're at.
An infographic labeled "Should I buy this plant? a bug-approved guide" 

It takes you through the following line of questioning "1. Is it native: Look at the name of the plant here and see if it's native to your region. If no, Is it good at feeding bugs? Some non-native make lots of nectar. You can google if unsure. If yes, Are there better options available? if yes, don't buy it. If no, buy it. Ok, let's go back to the top. If it IS native, is it a cultivar? Does it have a goofy name like "Daisies jubilee" or "Pink Flamingo Hibiscus" It's a cultivar. If it's a cultivar, it'll send you to are there better options available? If it's not, on to question 3, which is "Was it grown with pesticides? This can be hard to tell. Check with the origin nursery. If yes, are there better options. If no, "Hell yeah". 

There are little flowers on a bunch of the boxes. The Hell Yeah box has a swallowtail butterfly with sunglasses giving a thumbs up. The no has a sassy bee looking over its sunglasses at you judgementally with its hand on its hips.

On the bottom is says "Need help? Text questions to 9-RUNG-SQUID
