- 🚀🧪 Excited to share that our #COBME review,“Mechano‑adaptation of adipose tissue: ECM‑mediated control of #obesity and #breastcancer progression” was published today! Congrats @nadiasoulioti.bsky.social 🎉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
- 🧨🧪 Finally, after 26 years, the ‘famous’ paper claiming #Roundup #glyphosate does not cause #cancer has been retracted! This is a serious blow… but unfortunately too late with already disastrous consequences for #publichealth. #BanGlyphosate #StopBayer www.science.org/content/arti...
- Just loved it because it seems like a ‘simple’ #Christmas tree in #Manhattan, when it really isn’t 🥰 #TheNewYorker

- 🌺 It not the North Shore in Oahu, nor is it Nazaré in Portugal. Nope, it’s Lacanau in France, where the waves are just as nice 😎 #nicewaves #surfing #gironde #StormErin
- My Happy Friday post 🌺. Storm Erin - induced waves at “my” ocean 2 days ago 🥰 Last days of vacation but it feels so good 🌊 #Landes #Tarnos #Beach #Waves #HouleCyclonique #LifeIsGood

- 🧪From 𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲: Over three million #citations, an #h-index approaching 1,700 and many 2025 papers that have been cited over 1,000 times. Can this be #legitimate ??? 👿😳🤬 #PaperMills #Fraud #Fake #Publications #GoogleScholars (Google removed the page but archived at buff.ly/0yVjvpu)
- 🔔🧪 Call for Papers – #Mechanobiology of the #ExtracellularMatrix 🧬🛠️ Excited to serve as Guest Editor — together with Jacopo di Russo and Jennifer Young — of a new 𝐧𝐩𝐣 𝐁𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐌𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐬 Collection on “Mechanobiology of the ECM”. Deadline: 14 May 2026! www.nature.com/collections/...
- 🔔🧪This PNAS article shows that #fraud is more #common than we think: Paper #mills products are fabricated, #fake papers sold for a #fee to authors! Unfortunately, #universities are omitted, and I'm unsure if all actively discourage fraud, especially to boost #rankings 🤔 www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
- 🌺 My happy Sunday post! #Puffins #IsleOfMay
- I liked this article about how #protests are planned in #Scotland, but opponents of #Trump's golf courses fear they may bolster his ego 🥺 #ScotlandIsAlreadyGreat #StopTrump #AntiMAGA www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

- 🧪Reposting from @lammerdinglab.bsky.social
- 🔔🧪I liked the article below, which summarises the #publications #quality loss #crisis we academics have been facing... Mistakes, AI fakes, and countless retractions illustrate how our "publish or perish" system is on the brink of #collapse. #PublishOrPerish www.theguardian.com/science/2025...
- 🔔🧪 Super interesting and very promising: A common #allergy drug aids the immune system in battling triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). When combined with an #immunotherapy drug, it reduced tumors in 5 out of 10 advanced TNBC patients. #BreastCancer #NovelTherapies www.nature.com/articles/s41...
- 🧪Such an amazing time at the #Vogel Alumni #Mechanobiology Symposium and Swiss Alpine Retreat! It was fantastic to reunite with both old and new faces in such a spectacular environment. Thank you, Viola! 🥰
- 🔔🧪 Super interesting… and promising! Stephen Wallace and his team at University of Edinburgh produced #paracetamol using genetically modified #E.coli bacteria from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), the main component of #plastic bottles. 🦠💊 #RecyclingPlastic 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
- 🌺 My Happy Sunday Post A fleeting moment of #peace in a world where our leaders choose brute force over dialogue and negotiation. #Puffins #LoveScotland
- 🔔🧪Amazing: Early #cancer detection enhances recovery chances and researchers at John Hopkins found that #blood #biomarkers can identify tumours over *3 years* before diagnosis, based on tiny genetic fragments shed by tumours. #EarlyCancerDetection #BloodBiomarkers aacrjournals.org/cancerdiscov...
- 🔔🧪 Very good news! #Enhanced #screening for dense breasts can detect three times more #invasive #cancers. A study found 85 additional cancers in over 9,000 women using faster MRI and #contrast-enhanced #mammograms 🌺 #BreastCancer #EarlyDiagnosis #DenseBreastTissue www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
