Happy to share that our work with Alexei Aravin exploring the ovarian SUMOylome by proteomics is now published online in Cell Genomics cell.com/cell-genomics/… 🎉 1/2

woke up to a Dispatch article by Mark Van Doren and Caitlin Pozmanter Caitlin Pozmanter highlighting our recent work Current Biology 😍 it is the mood boost that one needs on this gray, rainy Monday in LA! cell.com/current-biolog…

A great review of antiphage systems – the topic which is exploded over the last few years. However, only a subset of pAgos antiphage mechanisms are shown in this figure. Unlike catalytically inactive short pAgos, active pAgos directly attack invading phages cleaving their DNA.

I see the peer-review and editorial process - especially in so-called top-tier journals - as a great impediment to doing good science.

A culture that "reward[s] 'winners' (postdocs who generate favorable results) and marginalizes 'losers' (postdocs who struggle to generate such data)” leads to 20 years of "fudging of results [in] labs at three separate institutions". stanforddaily.com/2023/07/19/sta…

This is THE problem. Overt fraud is (hopefully) rare, but this is not. Of course, it is not that glamour journals are to be blamed for this exclusively. Many scientists are more than happy to play this game

looking forward to sharing my PhD work with Alexei Aravin Caltech at #Dros25 tonight & meeting old and new friends throughout the fly meeting 😀

As scientists, we marveled at human creativity. Now AI’s writing poems, and our last gig? Wielding a wrench (or toiling at the bench). Humanity’s future is less poetic, more pipe-fixing. P.S. Tweet written by AI

Мы, учёные, восхищались людским гением. А теперь ИИ строчит стихи, а наш удел? Крутить гайки (или пыхтеть за лабораторным столом). Будущее человечества — не поэзия, а сантехника! P.S. Твит написан ИИ
