Favorite meme template for PPIs associated with cancer

(Team Rocket Motto meme)
MYC: Prepare for trouble
MAX: And make it double

Me, a biochemist: the only “protein chips” I want to eat are chips folded over like they have tertiary structure

Can someone dilute me into a buffer with the appropriate ionic strength for me and a gentle suitable pH so I don’t crash out of solution? Thanks

At first I thought I didn’t need to write about Yesinia species in this review but nope I guess the plague is happening still

Today's lecture was on ovarian follicle development. Very nice as well to hear that the lab does public engagement studies to see what people want out of reproductive research/technologies.

Ovarian follicle: Can I offer you a nice egg in this trying time?

Today's speaker was my PI so I already had this meme lol

people carrying spiderman meme, but he's labelled "Heme" and they are saying "carefully, he's an iron source"

Today's lecture was "An Intro to FISH-based spatial transcriptomics" and the amount of data is overwhelming

the Is This A Pigeon meme but the butterfly is "nonspecific probe noise" and the question is "is this an smFISH spot?"

Cats fishing meme: creamsicle cat called "encoder probe" is fishing in a pond with a bucket next to it, while a siamese cat observes. The siamese cat leaves and then comes back and starts fishing out of creamsicle cat's bucket. The siamese cat's name is "readout probe"

Today's lecture was on synthetic biology and I love using the triangle factory meme for it

Triangle factory meme: the worker is Engineered Yeast, strictosidine is coming out of the machine, and it's saying "i guess we doin strictosidine now"

Today's speaker said laptops open only for taking notes but I think this counts. *Chemical probes for targeting proteins in a cellular context

Gravity falls negative dollar meme, text on the bill says "a nonselective chemical probe," to which Dipper says "Woah. This is worthless!"

Recipe for success: potency, selectivity, structure, permeability

NSF GRFP results are out, I didn’t expect them to actually get processed—so I was decently pleased at getting honorable mention. Better than what I got the first time I applied. And congrats to everyone who did get it! Still, only 1000 were awarded. Shows how rough the funding situation is.

My PhD will not be in internet communications but if it was, I’d have a whole chapter on what people making memes about big news events signifies about humor, community, helplessness vs hope, etc.

Today's class was on approaches to study proteins involved in the cell cycle, for the purposes of developing anti-cancer drugs

when there's a cell division defect but the mitotic checkpoints catch it: "guess I'll die"

Just the other day I was trying to tell someone that I would rather write/edit my paper myself instead of using ch@t gpt—sure it can make prose sound more professional, but what matters is making sure the words are communicating *exactly* what I want to say.

Scattered thoughts from #bps2025: it was very big and overwhelming for my first conference ever, but it highlighted the worldwide reach of the biophysics community. Jet-lagged scientists giving or attending talks at 8:15am are passionate about sharing research!
