In this context, I was excited to be able to present some of our latest science and to discuss it with the expert audience. Dresden is building a very strong environment for research in #ChemBio and #Biochemistry. (2/3)

We boosted tumour-selective delivery of nano-formulated chemotherapeutics by transiently shaking up tumour blood vessels. The catch? You only get one shot at this ☝️ This #BMBF funded work, driven by a predominantly female team @lmumuenchen.bsky.social is available on the @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social

The delivery of nano-formulated drugs to solid tumours is selectively increased by co-application of the vascular disrupting agent CA4P https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.08.10.669501v1

Hate that it has come to this, but it's time to consider PubMed vulnerable to enshittification. My latest post @plos.org discusses the lines we need to fight to hold – and alternatives we can rely on internationally:

What if We Can't Rely on PubMed? - Absolutely Maybe
PubMed is incredibly reliable. And a lot depends on it. It’s an ecosystem built around MEDLINE, the steady feed of new publications…

An academics, die sagen: ‚Wir machen Wissenschaft, politisch engagieren wir uns nicht‘.

Das ist 1 völlig verkürztes Verständnis des ,Politischen’, & das nützt allen, die mit 1 ideologischen Agenda in den Wissenschaftsbetrieb eingreifen wollen.

Starkes Signal!!

Über 60 dt. Hochschulen & Forschungsinstitutionen haben heute ihren Ausstieg bei X bekanntgegeben, s.u. #eXit

X sei nicht mehr vereinbar mit ihren Grundwerten: „Weltoffenheit, wissenschaftliche Integrität, Transparenz und demokratischer Diskurs.“

Liste der Beteiligten hier:
Hochschulen und Forschungsinstitutionen verlassen Plattform X - Gemeinsam für Vielfalt, Freiheit und Wissenschaft

Weihnachtspause steht bevor: Zeit zum #Einkuscheln! 🙃 Vorher sollten wir uns aber genauer ansehen, warum Narrativ vom unbefristeten Mittelbau, der nicht Prof werden will & sich einkuschelt, so problematisch ist. & warum es dazu beiträgt, System zulasten von #IchBinHanna zu stützen! #ArbeitInDerWiss
Gemütlich einkuscheln?! Ein #IchBinHanna-Gruß vor den Feiertagen
Der Hashtag #Einkuscheln ist längst etabliert. Aber was genau macht die Formulierung vom gemütlich eingekuschelten Mittelbau so problematisch - und inwiefern fügt sie der deutschen Wissenschaft Schade...

There are so many amazing women doing the educating, the researching and the storytelling for us. Just one example by @sonorajha.bsky.social arrived a couple of days after the US elections...

Misogeny and sexism is not always easy to recognise, but it's systematic and it paves the way for inequality, hate and violence. Took me painfully long to become angry enough about this. Feminism, and make it intersectional, is good for EVERYONE. #StopViolenceAgainstWomen #TagGegenGewaltAnFrauen

Introducing: Chromocontrol!

our first science Bsky post for 2024 :) #ChemSky #ChemBio

The most important photopharmacology work we've done in years.

Ditched the photoswitch design principles we used since a decade, & started all over again.

And now it will work in vivo.

Hi! My name is Joyce and I love building and using tools to manipulate the #cytoskeleton of cells to better understand their function. 🔬
Below you can see my movie of #opto-katanin ✂️(SspB-mCh-p60) being used to locally disassemble #microtubules (labelled by SiR-tubulin) inside a neuron.
