Blanchard lab and I are looking for a driven postdoctoral fellow to lead our efforts combining single-molecule biophysics with cryo-EM to understand important mechanisms of novel genome-editors. We have an exciting project that addresses key questions in the field, see link below! shorturl.at/rGioB

These are not just grants. This is thousands of people who devoted their lives and careers - taking pay cuts, working long hours, living with uncertainty - all for the chance to try to make people's lives a bit better for you and your loved ones. This breaks my heart.

Yesterday, the NIH R35 “Outstanding Investigator” grant to fund scientists in my lab studying antibiotic resistance was terminated for reasons not related to the content of the science, or any actions taken by me or members of my lab

A screenshot of the termination notice showing "Outstanding Investigator Grants"

A screenshot of the termination notice with "This award is terminated effective the date of this award, due to unsafe antisemitic actions that suggest the institution lacks concern for the safety and wellbeing of Jewish students." highlighted

I'm so happy that I can finally share the results of my first postdoc paper with @baym.lol!!! Turns out plasmids are an amazing system to study multi-scale evolution and we can track within-cell and between-cell dynamics! (1/n) www.biorxiv.org/content/earl...

Conflicts between levels of biological organization are central to evolution, from populations of multicellular organisms to selfish genetic elements in microbes. Plasmids are extrachromosomal, self-r...

There is no "committee on science" that will impose a new order or set of incentives. No one is going to "fix" peer review or incentivize it differently in one fell swoop. We have to BE the change - the tools already exist for everyone at every level to make an impact and change the incentives
