All about enveloped #viruses and other #ExtracellularVesicles as well as extracellular RNA #exRNA

Grant terminations have grabbed the headlines and have seen legal action, but even more damaging to the US research enterprise has been the massive decrease in research grants issued by federal agencies NIH: -57% in the number of awards and -63% in value compared to FY24

Although #ExtracellularVesicles have strong promise in #LiquidBiopsy, EVs from specific sources can be difficult to find, like a needle in a haystack. In this #EVClub, Agustin Enciso-Martinez et al present a solution they have found and validated in pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Excellent comment about core facilities. They add dimensions to research programs. You can train with world leaders in specific techniques or entirely hand over specific experiments, measurements, and analysis. The value added is not easily reduced to money, either.
Core facilities are truly one of the most undervalued assets in an academic institution. They are often treated as also rans, staffed by non tenured faculty with little leeway, and given an exceedingly short runway to become profitable. In an age of shrinking lab sizes and
