I don't know if this is what people meant by turning to industry for support during these difficult funding times but I know #NewEnglandBiolabs has my marker needs sorted.
Thanks besties. ❤️

"Never before in human history has there been a more urgent need to understand living systems & how they interact with each other and the environment" Check out this blog from the 'wild frontiers of model organisms' symposium, inc on the importance of TREC's approach of taking the lab to the field
Biology beyond conventional model organisms – a whole new world | EMBL
An EMBL | EMBO symposium explored the ‘wild frontiers’ of model organisms, from phytoplankton to sea anemones, waterstriders, roundworms, and more.

Outstanding presentation of the devastating cuts at NSF and their impact across multiple areas of scientific research and training. Angry at the impact now and in the long-term to US research. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
Trump Has Cut Science Funding to Its Lowest Level in Decades (Gift Article)
The lag in funding extends far beyond D.E.I. initiatives, affecting almost every area of science: chemistry, computing, engineering, materials and more.

MagLOV!
MagLOV is a fluorescent protein you can "turn off" with a handheld magnet, engineered by @mariaingaramo.bsky.social.
We think/hope we can use it to turn arbitrary proteins (including drugs!) on and off in opaque creatures (including humans!).

Just a PSA for iced coffee (Aussie for coffee with ice cream) orders this summer: you can order ice cream flavours other than vanilla. People really be out there getting chocolate or coffee ice cream in their iced coffee.
