​Starting a new scientific adventure in France! I'm so excited to join the #DEEVA team at the #CNRS in #WindyBanyuls for my new #MSCA project. I'll be working on how #Bioelectricity is connected to #EmbryoDevelopment! Eager to start with the @biom-banyuls.bsky.social unit! ⚡🌊🔬

#MSS2025 kicks-off tomorrow morning 🤩 Last but not least in this speaker lineup reveal, our very own Yuhong Wang will share her work on the evolution of ionotropic glutamate receptors in bilaterians. We are looking forward to her talk 👏

Blaming migrants, refugees & educated elite are all classic distraction lies, which unfortunately work!

It is a common anti democratic method to undermine us!

When the real problems are people who live above democracy, e.g. Billionaires, fascists with power.

Congratulations @emclaereboudt.bsky.social and team for a new article out in @biophysj.bsky.social 👏🤩 Combining functional and structural data, they show that FaNaC receptors in molluscs and annelids have different binding modes for the same ligand 🧪⤵️
The same ligand binds upside-down to closely related receptors
A new study conducted in the Lynagh group shows that closely related neuropeptide receptors do not always recognize ligands in the same way. The work lays out the blueprint for ligand recognition in t...

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.”
Absurd we still need to go through this
🧪👩‍🔬
There have been people less than helpful in my journey here. I wanted to acknowledge those too, bc I know I am not unique in this experience. No thank you to the physics study assoc that made me sing songs about how women couldn't study physics without sleeping with the professor, the day I stepped into university life. No thank you to the 5th year physics student that decided to assign me a stripper name within the first minute of meeting me in the physics coffee corner in my first year. No thank you to the technician that was responsible for onboarding me on the use of the cluster in my third year who raised his eyebrows and asked me if that meant I was some sort of computer girl. No thank you to the senior researcher that sent me utterly inappropriate texts after a conference, then proceeded to apologise months later by telling me they had not been meant for me anyway so no hard feelings remain hopefully And no thank you to him for attending every conference I've been to since. No thank you to the people who told me that it was surprising that I was doing a PhD since I was a girl. No thank you to the man who mistook me for a coffee lady at a conference, and after having to correct him two times that I did not work there, responded with you should consider it. No thank you to the researcher that asked me what I was wearing underneath my outfit during a conference. No thank you to the physicist who declared to a room full of other physicists that biologists don't know how to design an experiment. No thank you to the people who have called me scary instead of strong and intimidating instead of intelligent. And finally, no thank you to the exec board of the TU Delft, whose knee-jerk reaction to being held up a mirror about the social safety at the university, was to sue the party holding up the mirror instead of looking at the problems they highlighted. ... You have made me feel like I do not belong in science & I cannot forgive you for that.

From octopuses to snails, the complicated molluscan family tree has now been mapped in unprecedented detail, researchers report in Science.

Learn more in this week's issue: scim.ag/4hVhrxB
An oval squid (Sepioteuthis lessoniana) hovers in a nighttime sea, displaying its natural iridescence. This species is among those informing new insights into molluscan evolution. The extreme diversity in the phylum Mollusca—which includes squids, chitons, snails, clams, and others—has long puzzled scientists. Sequencing previously uncharacterized genomes helps to resolve the molluscan family tree.
