Awesome postdoc opportunity!
We are recruiting postdoc fellows who are interested in studying Autophagy, mitochondria dynamics, mitophagy, lipid droplets and cellular trafficking in fatty liver diseases. Please help to spread to people who are interested. KC is a great city for living.

New paper with @TomRutkowskiLab Interference with the HNF4-dependent gene regulatory network diminishes endoplasmic reticulum stress in hepatocytes
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Together, our findings suggest that the UPR regulates hepatocyte identity through HNF4α to protect ER homeostasis even at the expense of liver function.

This is what landing on the Moon looks like - so many potholes to avoid! Note the 2 descent pauses to let the cameras find a flat spot, before success. Well done @isro!

Very interesting- Shaligrams, the sacred fossils that have been worshipped by Hindus and Buddhists for over 2,000 years, are becoming rarer because of climate change https://t.co/iNT1htv9od via @ConversationUS

Many Hindus, Buddhists and people who follow the shamanic religion of Bon undertake a pilgrimage each year to northern Nepal to look for Shaligrams, believed to be a manifestation of Lord Vishnu.

Excellent advice! I would add- think very early on about the end game. Decide what you’ll you want to do with the PhD and customize the training for that goal.
As a PhD student, all I focused on was getting a PhD. As a PhD supervisor, I focus on training students on the long-term process that leads to getting a PhD. Here's some examples🧵

Lab size i.e. number of people in the lab is a critical factor for many issues including growth and training of mentees, effective use of public research money, and *most* importantly, maintaining research integrity.

A scientific panel found that Marc Tessier-Lavigne did not directly have a hand in falsifying data, but that he did not properly oversee members of his lab who did.

Buckle up! We're in for a wild ride today. A new @NatMetabolism paper by scientists from China adds a surprising twist to the long-known FTO GWAS story. The FTO locus (16q12.2) is the first ever GWAS locus to be associated with obesity and even after 16 yrs now, scientists
