I'm also thinking about moving over to the "Threads" platform since Musk has co-opted twitter. I'm curious to hear thoughts about this from others in the scientific community? Are people migrating? If so, where to?
Chelsea Webber's paper was just accepted at HMG. Congrats!

Congrats to Hannah Rickner who graduated and moved on to become a scientist at Fluent Biosciences! They now have one fabulous bioinformatician!
Congrats to Lulu Jiang, M.D., Ph.D. who is moving on to a faculty position at U. Va. Bravo Prof. Jiang!! 🙌
Had stayed off Twitter because pissed at how Elan Musk was handling Twitter, but decided to start tweeting again. So here we go! (Despite Musk!)
Dorthee Dormann and I will be presenting a webinar on 11/3/22 at 12 PM titled "Stress granules: Deciphering the connections to neurodegeneration", sponsored by Science.
