Glad to announce that I’ve been awarded the EMBO postdoctoral fellowship @EMBOFellows . I will study the interplay between NLRP3 inflammasome activation and Tau pathology in @HenekaMichael group @lcsb_uni_lu . Thanks everyone supported me along the way! New journey ahead 💫

Rubisco is (arguably) the most abundant protein on Earth. (LPP surely comes close, right?) It’s an enzyme that fixes CO₂ into sugars during photosynthesis. Unfortunately, as most people learn in school, Rubisco is inefficient. Sometimes it confuses O₂ for CO₂ and wastes

Discovery of a pH sensor that regulates inflammation. Zhou and Medzhitov provide a mechanistic tour-de-force in defining how BRD4 links changes in pH to inflammatory gene expression. Kudos to the authors on this exciting finding. https://t.co/DBfGC9mcPO

Schéinen #Nationalfeierdag, Lëtzebuerg! 🇱🇺

Introducing the world's first reasoning model in biology! 🧬 BioReason enables AI to reason about genomics like a biology expert. A thread 🧵:

Today @OpenAI announced HealthBench benchmark that measures how AI models perform & behave in realistic healthcare setting. Two critical points: 1. AI models alone are now 4x better than physicians. 2. Physicians' responses no longer improved over the responses from these models.

At #AANS2025, we honored a century of brilliance in neurosurgery. “Professor Gazi Yasargil at Age 100: His ‘True Self,’ in His Own Words” is a moving tribute to the father of microneurosurgery. If you missed the full video, watch it here: https://t.co/UxENtrn7o5

🔬 Breaking news: Researchers at ISTA & @GoogleAI just published in Nature a groundbreaking method called LICONN, that uses light microscopy to map every neuron & synapse in a block of mouse brain! 🤯 By slashing massively the cost and equipment barriers of dense neuronal

The nullification of the University diploma of Mayor of #Istanbul @imamoglu_int who is also the sole candidate for the leadership of Turkey’s Republican People's Party (CHP), is unacceptable. Considering that a degree is a fundamental requirement for a potential presidential

Bu durum, alanımızda çalışan herkes tarafından bilinen bir gerçekti. Dolayısıyla, bilimsel araştırmalara dayalı gerçek bilgiye önem veren herhangi bir araştırmacı için Oytun Erbaş’ın açıklamalarının hiçbir bilimsel değeri bulunmamaktadır

New research has challenged “normal” B12 levels. Even within the “normal” range, lower B12 was linked to: ⚡ Slower cognitive processing 🧠 Delayed brain signal transmission (visual evoked potential latency) 🔬 Structural brain changes Let’s break it down 🧵1/10

Many articles reported using an antibody ... that didn’t even bind the key protein in Laflamme’s testing. Those articles had been over 3,000 times. The key question is: ◼️ Can binders achieve high specificity for every epitope & proteoform ? Some investors assume an answer.
