If you want to build a career in biotech, should you get a PhD after college or join a company directly (as a Research Associate/RA, usually)? There's no single answer, but I have the conversation often enough that I thought I'd share some pros/cons... (1/n)

Well this is a relief

This is such an awesome development

Barstool Chemistry prediction for Nobel Prize in Chemistry: Bertozzi and Sharpless (Odds: -400)

A PSA for those new to the field of mass spectrometry! :)

Orbitrap.... It's got the juice!

Click chemistry and bioorthogonal labeling approaches pioneered by Carolyn Bertozzi were key technologies that enabled my PhD thesis. It’s awesome to see it get recognized with the The Nobel Prize today

I'm hiring!! If you are curious, motivated, and interested in using the latest proteomics technology to answer questions at the frontier of immunology, immuno-oncology, and infectious diseases, check this out! jobs.biontech.de/Associate-Scie…

We and Pfizer Inc. started a Phase 1 trial for #BNT162b4 aimed at enhancing the breadth of t cell responses. This is part of our next generation #COVID19 vaccine candidate approach. Goal: potentially broaden and extend the duration of protection against COVID-19.

Delighted and excited to see BNT162b4, a T cell-directed COVID-19 vaccine, advance to the clinic

A T-cell directed vaccine against Covid, with non-spike, conserved antigens (e.g. nucleocapsid, ORF1ab), effective in experimental models for preventing disease, has gone into clinical trials clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05… cell.com/cell/fulltext/… Cell

Come work with us!!

Happy to share some of the innovative work at BioNTech SE. It's been amazing to have an insider perspective on the development of T cell-directed vaccine tech -- always thinking about ways to manipulate the T cell synapse to modulate immunity! cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

I’m so excited to share our journey developing a T-cell-directed mRNA vaccine for SARS-CoV-2 that can complement existing Spike-based vaccines. I’m incredibly grateful to be able to work with such a talented team to advance this technology to the clinic.

It's so beautiful 😍🥹🤓

😅

We are pleased to announce our strategic partnership with CEPI to advance the development of our #mRNA based BNT166 #vaccine program for the prevention of mpox. investors.biontech.de/news-releases/…

Very excited to be able to contribute to this project :)

Does anyone know how to easily transfer the accounts I follow on here onto Bluesky/Mastadon/Threads/etc? I'm getting off this hellscape of a site but don't want to lose out on all the good science discussions
