Maybe we should revise policies that push postdocs out of academic research too early. It selects for early achievers that remain in one field and risks losing the highest impact people
14 two-year postdocs for academics of any nationality who cannot continue their research due to US politics. Do share if you know of such.

I am thrilled to share that my PhD work is published. Here, we uncover the conserved evolutionary principles of eukaryotic cell-substrate adhesions. A huge thanks to Prof. Dr. Carsten Grashoff.
Do check out the article and I look forward to get in touch!

"Much as granaries and refrigeration transformed food markets, storage will turn electricity from perishable to persistent, unlocking a new era of energy abundance."
In the future we will look back on the oil & gas era the way we look at hunting and gathering.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
Turns out cavefish don’t mourn their dead — they season them. 💀🍴
Congrats on that ‘killer’ preprint #cannibalism #dinnerplans

Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries, no matter what Trump says.
A tariff is an import tax, raising the price of almost everything we buy.
Tariffs are also regressive — taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.
