There are two types of people in academic medicine - those who are there because it is their lifetime calling, others who are there to take home a paycheck.
The fundamental problem is that those there for the paycheck hold all of the power.

We are very proud of this new content spearheaded by @alessandrodonada.bsky.social!
Our lab is very grateful to Alessandro for highlighting our two recent preprints.
This month's #PreprintWatch covers some exciting new results on the impact of microenvironment on hematopoietic progenitors and novel approaches to long-standing questions like self-renewal and stem cell activity! Read now on https://www.simplyblood.org/

Hey all you #ASH24 people.
You need to look at this new paper in @naturemethods.bsky.social by Heme extraordinaires Grant Rowe and the Bluesky-less #HojunLi.

A paper that looks at Blood & Time from @bloodandtime.bsky.social himself!
