The winner arrived last night after 1380 km in 2d 16h 13m, less than 2h without moving. Meanwhile, a teenager got up and asked me if I wanted his sit on the bus this morning 🥲

Happy #FluorescenceFriday. Christophe Leterrier⭐in #TheMicroscopists and reflects on the
make-or-break moment at the end of his postdoc
when he came close to leaving academia before securing his CNRS position
and how these experiences shape the way he mentors others.

I understand "transformative" here the same way I sometimes use "exceptional"

What would happen if cells would express more molecular motors ?
They would break all microtubules 😱
As shown by recent great work from @kjverhey1.bsky.social

John Gurdon was a true giant:
- founder of cell reprogramming;
- founder of molecular embryology;
- unabashed advocate for basic research;
- advisor to numerous successful trainees/PIs;
- gentle human that touched so many.
In dark times with science under attack, let his vision be a guiding light.

Katherine Brown @katherine-brown.bsky.social · 21h

Very saddened to hear of John Gurdon’s passing. I’ve been lucky enough to interact with him at multiple points through my career - from undergrad lectures, through his position as former Chair of @biologists.bsky.social’s Board of Directors, and as an author at @dev-journal.bsky.social.

Nobel Laureate Professor Sir John Gurdon dies aged 92

It is with great sadness that the University shares the news of the death of Professor Sir John Gurdon, founder of the Gurdon Institute.

And the Marseille-Bordeaux "worst French train line" lives up to its reputation as we've been stuck for more than 2 hours behind a broken freight train in the middle of nowhere. I'll miss the launch of #FINS25 it appears
