Novel data from patient samples gives new context to the reduced binding affinity of five therapeutic antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 variant #Omicron. Results explain why these drugs are less effective against Omicron than they were against WT and Delta. hubs.li/Q013W8sB0

10 years ago we asked the research community what the 100 most important questions for #PlantScience were. This year @NewPhyt is proud to be working with @BCAI_UoB to revisit the project. How have our research challenges changed? Have your say! newphytologist.org/100-impor…

Today is International Day of Women and Girls in Science, and at Fluidic Analytics we pride ourselves on a higher than average percentage of female researchers. We sat down with some of them to hear their experiences. Read the blog here: hubs.li/H0GpXJF0 #WomenInScience
We're incredibly enthused by the range of applications submitted to our Research Challenge, we're releasing additional instruments to ensure no great research idea goes unsupported. Tell us your idea in ~200 words to win a 3 month instrument placement hubs.li/H0zJvZc0

Er sieht aus wie ein Vogel, der aus Papier gefaltet wurde, und ist doch ein winziger, am #PSICH gebauter Roboter, der die Kraft von Magnetfeldern nutzt, um zu flattern, zu gleiten oder seinen Kopf zu bewegen. psi.ch/de/node/30590

Interesting overlap between these two papers published 2 days apart: "The mechanical basis for snapping of the Venus flytrap" biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… and "Venus flytrap trigger hairs are micronewton mechano-sensors that can detect small insect prey" rdcu.be/bJLm1

Mathematicians and physicists have been using LaTeX typesetting language to craft equations in manuscripts, but now other scientists are using it too. Here’s how to get started. go.nature.com/31rOmTC

Fraud departs from community norms, so scientists do not want to think about it, let alone talk about it, says @JAByrneSci. go.nature.com/2SHyGd7
