“The call from Stockholm is mythic in the world of science.” New medicine laureate Gary Ruvkun has received a prank call or two in the past, but today’s was genuine. We talked to him minutes after he heard the news of his #NobelPrize.

📢 I am so incredibly happy and proud about this one! 🔟+ years in the making, 2,5 years since first submission, 1⃣ year since we posted it bioRxiv, it finally found it’s home Nature Cell Biology! Open access 👇 nature.com/articles/s4155… Detailed 🧵down below ⏬

Hot fudge, strawberry or sprinkles? Gary Ruvkun isn't only a Nobel Prize laureate, he also helps out his local ice cream truck on occasion. Ruvkun visits the 'Frosty Truck' so often the owners consider him extended family. The newly awarded medicine laureate celebrated his prize

Ale on tarpeettoman ruma sana, sanoisin että kohtuullistamme tutkintovaatimuksia. Mutta taustoja ja motiiveja on hyvä perata: kuka ohjailee yliopistoja, miksi ja miten? Kommentti ruohonjuurelta = muutaman University of Helsinki väitöskirjatutkijan ohjaajalta ⛓️ yle.fi/a/74-20118082
