- Listen to me folks. We all agree that this SCIENCV thing sucks. Extra work for no reason. So let's all agree not to nitpick about things on the Biosketch when it's our turn to review grants. Be a good reviewer and let's not screw ourselves. Yes, I'm talking to YOU!
- So excited about this #cilia conference at the beautiful Lake Maggiore, Italy. We have a great list of speakers so far, and two amazing keynote lectures. Get your abstracts ready, registration will open soon! 👇🏼

- Reposted by Moe Mahjoub🙏 to all who have contributed great ideas & motivational strategies to this thread. It’s clear that the effect of ongoing turmoil is heterogeneous; everyone, incl tenured professors, are facing changes, but those in transitional stages (looking for grad/postdoc/faculty positions) have it worst. 1/
- Happy #FluorescenceFriday 🔬 all! Is that the Eye of Sauron? No, it's a developing mouse oocyte (beautiful cells to image btw). But what are those filaments inside the cell? Stay tuned 😉
- Reposted by Moe MahjoubHappy #FluorescenceFriday! This is a 3D render of a confocal image of an NIH3T3 cell expressing a membrane marker 🟢 showing long filopodia called cytonemes. Cytonemes reach toward neighboring cells to exchange information. Actin is ⚪ and nuclei are 🟠. 🔬 by postdoc @christinaadaly.bsky.social.
- Bummed to miss #ASCB this year (one of my fav meetings), but the lab is well represented! Stop by poster B169 today and Maneesha will tell you all about her work on basal bodies and cilia homeostasis in multiciliated cells 👇 #CellBio2025

- Enjoying the scenery in Hong Kong with Jeremy @reitergroup.bsky.social and our wonderful host Mu He. Looking forward to our visit to HKU to talk about #cilia!
- Reposted by Moe MahjoubI am excited to share our latest preprint describing comparative transciptomic analysis between primary ciliary dyskinesia and cystic fibrosis. The more we understand the pathways driving disease the better equipped we are to find a cure. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

- Had a fun visit at the Max Planck Institute for Heart and Lung Research in Bad Nauheim. The best part - catching up with my former postdoc Ewelina and hearing about her cool work!
- Fun visiting McGill Cell Biology and talking about #cilia
- Thank you @barrlab.bsky.social for lending us the amazing Katie! 🙏 Was fun learning how to isolate OSNs from a pro, along with @jenntrosome.bsky.social and @maneesha07.bsky.social 👌
- Reposted by Moe MahjoubA huge shoutout to all the dedicated grants management specialists at the NIH who are working around the clock to push grants out before the Sep 30 deadline. And also to the POs responding to frantic emails. Not an easy job under the best of circumstances and right now it's the pits. Thank you!
- This is 50! #oldmanmoe
- It's another NOA day! So happy and relieved to finally get this. What started out as a crazy idea pitched to the @wu-ciliopathygroup.bsky.social team a couple of years ago is now a fully funded project. Major thanks to NHLBI for continuing to fund our work on motile ciliopathies 🙏
- Current mood 😀
- Reppin’ the @wu-ciliopathygroup.bsky.social at the faculty poster session for incoming DBBS grad students. With lots of coffee, of course.
- Congrats to all!

- Reposted by Moe MahjoubWell, none of us may ever get funded again but in the meantime, here's some new science! Led by recent PhD Anjali Pandey w/ex-UG Maya Katz. Here we identify an asymmetric molecular mechanism that underlies symmetric context-dependent sensory plasticity in the AWC olfactory neuron pair in C. elegans

- Reposted by Moe MahjoubTomorrow SCOTUS quietly decides if Trump administration can illegally cut grants tied to DEIA. This and today's bombshell announcing no new NIH grants is an orchestrated assault. We need to scream from rooftops.
- The Trump admin already got slapped down by Judge Young, who said he’d “never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable." Now, Trump’s begging SCOTUS to let him cut NIH grants that focus on gender, race, and LGBTQ+ research anyway. zurl.co/g2R1Q
- This just now from the OMB communications director - although it's hard to know if they'd tell the truth, or if they're full of BS as usual.
- I think I'm going to have a panic attack. Been waiting to get an NOA on my new grant (6%) and now it looks like that's gone???
- Here’s a nice little break from your doomscrolling 👇🏼 The Euro #Cilia2027 program is coming soon! The best cilia meeting on a beautiful lake outside Milan. What’s not to love?! Block March 2027 on your calendar now 😁
- Save the date! March 2027 on beautiful lake Maggiore right outside #Milan, are you ready for #Cilia2027? 🥳 Stay tuned for more info!
