We’re looking for a PhD student in brain onco-immunology! Apply here, one week to go: kidoktorand.varbi.com/en/wha…
I stopped posting here a long time ago when X took a sharp right turn into the gutter. But I miss Science Twitter. Now it looks like it’s being reconstituted at Bluesky! I’ll be at bsky.app/profile/slinnarsson… (to get started finding people, look for ”starter packs”)
Seriously @MIT - ”CRISPR-based genome editing tools developed by MIT professor and McGovern investigator Feng Zhang, Abudayyeh, Gootenberg, and others” - ”others” is doing a lot of work in that sentence… (but @zhangf Fanzors are very cool) news.mit.edu/2023/thousands-…
Human brain atlas papers by @kimsiletti @MossiAlejandro @ka_wai_rine
@ErnestArenasSWE @EmelieBraun1 @MiriDanan Rebecca Hodge Trygve Bakken Ed Lein @LarsBorm Elin Vinsland Erik Sundström and many others. With a stunning double cover illustration by @IKapustova
In 21 papers across Science, @ScienceAdvances, and @ScienceTM, researchers with the #BICCN consortium present an atlas of the human and nonhuman primate brain in unprecedented detail.
The results uncover the genetic organization of the human brain. scim.ag/4ro
I am shocked at the violence and barbary displayed today by Hamas and its followers. My thoughts are with all my scientist friends in Israel, at Weizmann, Technion and elsewhere. Be safe, be safe.
קהילת מכון ויצמן מתאחדת בצער עמוק על מותם של חפים מפשע ומייחלת להחלמתם של הפצועים ולשובם של השבויים, החטופים והנעדרים בשלום.
בשעה קשה זו, אנו מחזקים את תושבי כל ישראל, כוחות הביטחון וההצלה ומקווים לימים שקטים יותר.
שמרו על עצמכם ועצמכן.
In light of the recent events, the Weizmann Institute community extends its deepest sorrow for the loss of life, and hopes for a full recovery of those who have been injured and safe return of those who have been abducted or missing.
In this dark hour, we send our support to citizens across Israel, IDF soldiers, security forces, and rescue workers, and we hope for better days ahead.
Stay safe.
Incredibly proud, and a bit nervous, to share the first major cancer paper from my group. For all the details, link to data, code and preprint, see thread below by @MossiAlejandro. Here, I will instead discuss one specific insight that was key in making sense of our data. (1/n)
Thrilled to share our work: Glioblastoma is spatially organized by neurodevelopmental programs and a glial-like wound healing response. Led by J. Janusauskas and myself.

What a sad day for the Nobel Prize. The decision to invite the Russian ambassador must be reversed. I for sure am not going to party with war criminals or their henchmen. I expect there will be many empty chairs, including on the podium.
Proud and happy to share this study by @CamielMannens of chromatin accessibility during early human brain development, out now in bioRxiv! Tweetorial🧵below 👇
Excited to announce that our multiomic atlas of early human brain neurodevelopment is now on biorXiv! Thank you to all contributors. @slinnarsson Lijuan Hu, Peter Lonnerberg, @MJ_Schipper, @ReagorCaleb, Xiaofei Li, Roger Barker, Erik Sundstrom and @DPosthu biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
If the LK-99 ”car crash” is our alternative I’m all in tbh. Most entertaining public peer review I’ve ever seen, and not worse in the end than your standard editor-controlled year-long back and forth away from the public eye.
RT (RX?) please, and forward to any potential candidates. Deadline Sep 11

It was an amazing meeting: a beautiful venue with great food and cutting-edge science. I learned so much, and already look forward to the next meeting! Thanks @IdoAmitLab @jonykipnis !
We wish to thank everyone who made Neuroimmunology 2023 such a fantastic meeting and wishing you safe travels back home

A few months ago, I got an email: ”Congratulation - Best Paper Award in Theoretical Computer and Information Sciences: Bioinformatics”. Supposedly for our paper ”RNA velocity of single cells” (with Peter Kharchenko @KharchenkoLab) 🧵
Classic, carefully worded, non-denial denial. The story did not claim that Leica Camera AG does business in Russia, but that - instead of shutting down - it simply renamed its subsidiary. @leica_camera please either confirm or deny the story; until then, no more Leica for me.
Replying to @IuliiaMendel
In response to the war against Ukraine, Leica Camera AG has consequently ceased all business activities in Russia in 2022.
For this reason alone, Leica Camera AG followed strict rules and has never violated sanctions.
The last delivery of the sport optics products to the Russian subsidiary took place in February 2022.
Furthermore, there is a long-term strict company policy that we do not distribute sports optics products for military purposes.
Been away from Twitter a while and now noticed this weird middle button at the bottom that looks like a diving bell… WTH are these things? What did I do to deserve them?
