Thinking of a PhD investigating GAGs in early mammalian development? Fabulous PhD on offer here with @da40cambs in Liverpool. You would get to work with our #glycoweb network and all the support we can offer. PIs, please pass on to interested potential students!

Chenxin Li, pulled together a lot of great advice for data visualization, with clear "do this, not that" examples for each item.
Here are a few of my favorites, see the link below for more.

Very cool study shedding light on a big question in GAG biosynthesis. Nicely expands upon prior work by @EskoJeff and others! Congrats to Dave Briggs and colleagues! #glycotime #PGpeeps

Chemist Josh Smalley is competing in The Great British Bake Off this year. He is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Leicester, where he cooks up small-molecule probes and proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs). Read more: cen.acs.org/education/scienc…

Delighted to share our new article, together with Salome Pinho, Ines Alves and Joana Gaifen, highlighting the role of glycans and glycan-binding proteins in creating immune regulatory networks common to infection and autoimmunity.

Remember to register free for our next #FrontRow lecture, April 19. @HuangMia will discuss how vital sugar molecules in the body called #glycans are exploited in various disease states, and how modifying them holds promise for new diagnostics & treatments scrippsresearch.zoom.us/webi…

"You can find the role models you are looking for."
2022 chemistry laureate @CarolynBertozzi shares an important message to all who don't see themselves represented in mainstream science. Who is your role model?

Today I learned that sea urchins naturally use shells as hats to feel safer and camouflage. So some aquarists decided to 3d print tiny hats for them

For centuries we've had anatomical maps of how the body's organs are connected, but what would a diagram of the immune system’s connections look like? In @Nature we report our initiative to map the "interactome" that links human immune cells together (1/14)nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
