Were two separate, major lines of Alzheimer’s research tainted by image fabrication, with far-reaching implications for the field? I take a deep look for Science Magazine science.org/content/articl… 🧵 1/11

You know you’re a scientist about to travel when…

Just a quick reminder that you can win a Nobel with an h-index = 29 (according to the usually inflated google scholar). Quantitative measures of scientific output are not the way to go to a bright future for humanity.

A central problem in science today is that scientists are encouraged by the system to become just managers; meaning the vast majority of the scientific process is handled solely by grad students, postdocs, & research scientists without much input from the principal investigators.

The academic path..... Undergrad --> PhD --> Postdoc --> PI --> bakery shop owner

Super excited to share our work identifying an enhancer regulating Prox1 expression, lymphatic identity and the ability of lymphatic endothelial cells to produce haematopoietic cells, published online today in nature! An amazing team effort! nature.com/articles/s4158…

This month’s imaginative Cancer Cell cover: The Monkey King (NK cells) recognizes & tries to kill the White Bone Demon (CTCs), who is disguised as a girl. However, the White Bone Demon pretends to be innocent & convinces Tripitaka (platelets) & Pigsy (HLA-E) to protect it.

Imagine you could stain whole adult mice with standard IgG antibodies. What you couldn't do! We present wildDISCO technology for this🤗, creating the first whole body vascular, lymphatic, and nerve atlases. By HongchengMAI Jie Luo biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵👇🏼(turn on the sound)

As a professor, pursue the careers of your PhD students and postdocs instead of pursuing your own. I know it may sound strange and even provocative. But in fact it is how it’s supposed to be. Unfortunately, a personal gain is the biggest motivation for many professors. More

This is why: 1. Funding decisions for PIs must take into account recommendation letters from former PhD graduates and postdocs. Because funding is used to pay for more students and postdocs, it should be allocated only if the PI knows how to manage people correctly. 2.

Finally my co-first author paper is out Cell Reports! LSECs can attract NK cells via CXCL10 and activate them to produce more IFN-g. Thank you mouse team Sophia Papaioannou Mingeum Jeong and supervisors AStojanovic Cerwenka Lab for all the efforts! cell.com/cell-reports/f…

Your academic CV is NOT linked to your ability to make big discoveries. ▫️ 1. Andre Geim, a co-discoverer of graphene, wrote in his Nobel Lecture article: - “So, at the age of 33 and with an h index of 1 (latest papers not yet published), I entered the Western job market for

Yet another utterly false article from WSJ

BREAKING NEWS The 2023 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman for their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19.

So honored to attend GYSS 2024! Inspired by many Nobel laureates. Takaaki Kajita showed how he changed his research topic to neutrinos to solve the puzzle, and ended with "If we work hard and lucky, nature will tell us its secret" Super insightful and totally agree! #GYSS2024

Nobel Prize is NOT about h-index or citations. It is about the emergence of big new fields. So many posts discuss Nobel awardees. And so many misunderstand the Nobel Prize. 📍 A bit of clarification from my side: 1⃣ Nobel Prize is NOT about how useful your work is. It’s about
