#Issue44 profiles the research and service of @berkeleyMCB Professor @rebeccaheald! Heald was recently inducted into the @theNASciences and @aaas, and discusses with @ssamvardhini how this has impacted her mentorship and teaching efforts @UCBerkeley. 👇👇

It's a busy day here at the @BerkeleySciRev! Graduate student @Callie_Rhoades1 discusses socially conscious urban stream restoration, a topic right at the interface of #science and #society. Design by Tsai-Ching Hsi.

The series kicks off featuring @NASA #scientist and #mathematician Katherine Johnson. You may recognize her name from the 2016 film @HiddenFigures!

The Coronavirus is a virus
COVID-19 is a disease
Vaccines fight diseases
Vaccines won’t prevent viruses from going in your mouth
If a virus goes in your mouth, you might test positive for the virus
This is the entire purpose of taking a vaccine
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk

The latest tool to help with bioremediation? Green algae! @Merchant_Lab researchers @UCBerkeley have discovered how algal gene expression could help save the world! Read our #Issue40 #labscope by Samvardhini @ssamvardhini, designs by Julia @jtorvs.

This is absurd, @UCBerkeley grad students require these programs daily to do our jobs, and we should not be expected to pay out of pocket for these tools on a grad student stipend. How will you fix this, @GradDivision ?
All UC Berkeley students will lose access to Adobe Creative Cloud in July and Microsoft Office in September, and some will lose access to MATLAB in December

#MayThe4thBeWithYou! On this #StarWarsDay, learn how Dr. @SueBiggins' lab uses lasers to apply a force on the proteins and machinery that allows cells to divide normally to understand how that happens in healthy cells — and what goes wrong in cancer cells. #WhatTheHutch

Classes are almost over @UCBerkeley, and we have some exciting news coming soon too from the BSR!
We can't wait to show you what's coming! Watch this space soon! 🤩🤩🤩

Congratulations, Annie and Grinnell! Egg #1 was laid at 1:55am. We expect there will be 4 laid in total, approximately 48 hours apart. Serious incubation won't start until the third egg is laid, at which point we'll be able to estimate hatch day.

Happy to share our latest work describing specific dependencies of CIN tumor cells on KIF18A. This complements two recent studies from Uri Ben-David and @GanemLab, which identify vulnerabilities of tumor cells with abnormal chromosome numbers 1/5
Kinesin motor protein, KIF18A, permits the proliferation of chromosomally unstable cells and KIF18A knockdown induces centrosome fragmentation.
