Reposting yesterday's (April 1!) brilliant post. /s

Is science a pyramid scheme? The correlation between an author's position in the academic hierarchy and her scientific output per year buff.ly/3xzrqX5

Can not studying popular genes cost you your career?! Check out how the probability of a junior scientist to transition to a principal investigator is lower if the genes they research are less studied. The overall decreasing probability is also really depressing! (from Fig. S10)

Tomorrow, I´m presenting our work of the exciting collaboration between Ruslan Dmitriev  and Optical Sensor Lab on oxygen sensing nanoparticle in 3D models at the #nanoinbio2024 conference in Guadeloupe! FWO Department of Human Structure and Repair

Truly #fluorescencefriday with great news that FWO has approved our #Hercules #Mediumsize research infrastructure grant funding #twophoton #flim upgrade UGent Geneeskunde & Gezondheidswetenschappen #theCore Ghent University Research and Ghent Light Microscopy CORE ! Thanks&congrats to all including fliMAGIN3D_DN

Just about published a paper (buff.ly/3Ww75MT) where I estimate that 8 publishers received USD $5.420 billion in article processing charges. Later, I suggest that these funds could be better spent by the funding agencies setting up their own journals. Thoughts?

More info about our new work addressing #spheroid #hypoxia #metabolism #variability #nanosensors is discussed below: x.com/PhotoBioLab/st…

🚨Save the Date!🚨 Join us for The 4th Day of Intravital Microscopy on 13-14 November 2024 in Leuven. 🌍✨ Organized by German BioImaging in collaboration with Intravital Imaging Expertise Center. Don’t miss out! More info at: vibconferences.be/events/the-4th… #IVMIC24 📅🔬

Honoured to receive Histochemical Society 2024 Early Career Investigator Award! It is also a recognition of the live multi-parametric microscopy approaches, FLIM and PLIM as useful tools for studying tissue organisation & function in 3D: spheroids, organoids and related models

Day 2 of experiments HHMI | Janelia on a #visitorscientist project with Angela Debruyne Daniel Feliciano Rahul Adhikari focusing on #intravital live microscopy of #oxygenation #mitochondria #gradients #FLIM in liver: so exciting!

Our questions are: 1) If the article is #OpenAccess, does the publisher have the right to sell on the content? 2) If the paper is published traditionally, does the copyright agreement allow them to sell on the work? buff.ly/3WIkYHq

Day 3 at HHMI | Janelia on a #visitorscientist program. Giving a seminar on our #FLIM #PLIM #nanoplastics #metabolism #organoids work. Thanks to Daniel Feliciano for hosting and Rahul Adhikari for introduction :)
