@veatchlab.bsky.socialMultiple-Awesome-Colleague Alert! The first is Fred Heberle (not on bsky). His group made a series of 3-component vesicles (high-Tmelt PC-lipid, low-Tmelt PC-lipid and chol) and varied only the high-Tmelt lipid. Then they measured liquid-liquid phase transition temperatures (Tmix) of the membranes 🧵
Show PostIt's awesomely amazing to hear from my old undergrad junior lab partner @veatchlab.bsky.social how excited they were to see my student's poster at Protein Society. Even after 30 years we still get excited about each other's science!!
Show PostThe currently proposed budget changes to NIH and NSF have absolutely nothing to do with efficiency. They are a full-on assault on science. Trump and Musk want to kill it. Universities who have been silent for fear of losing funds: how’s that working for you? It’s time to fight back.
Show PostJust received an email from the NSF. As a second federal court has issued a temporary restraining order on Trump's war against NSF funding (my words, not the court's), and DOJ has determined this applies to all award recipients, NSF funds will flow again as of noon. Let's celebrate every victory! 💪
