What better way to kickstart #MolecularBioscienceWeek?! Back in the crystallography game! More easily this time thanks to screens + optimization

It's #MolecularBioscienceWeek 🧪

It's an annual celebration of the impact of fundamental research—so, a great time to acknowledge its life-saving effects is by looking back at this vintage #ISpyPhysiology blog on how drugs make it to market: https://ow.ly/UTCL50ZSMB1 #Physiology

This #MolecularBioscienceWeek, we're asking:

Molecular bioscience is important because...

Sudheesh Allikka Parambil says it's about opening doors for the next generation. How would you finish the sentence?

Portrait graphic for Molecular Bioscience Week featuring Sudheesh Allikka Parambil, associate research scientist at Yale University. The graphic includes the quote: "Outreach is my way of showing kids from backgrounds like mine that science isn't reserved for certain people, it's for anyone curious enough to ask 'why?' Molecular Bioscience Week matters because it puts that door in front of the next generation before they've decided it's closed to them."

Hispanic Heritage Month graphic featuring a portrait of JoAnn Trejo, professor at the University of California San Diego. The graphic states that Trejo studies the regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling, including the mechanisms responsible for regulating signaling by protease-activated receptor-1. It notes that she received the ASBMB Ruth Kirschstein Award in 2015 for encouraging and mentoring students from historically marginalized or excluded groups.

📢 Make your voice heard.

Contact your members of Congress today and urge them to ask the White House to withdraw its proposal for a board of political appointees with authority over NIH grant decisions.

➡️ Take action: asbmb.quorum.us/campaign/169...

NIH funding decisions should be made by scientific experts, not political appointees. Protecting rigorous peer review safeguards public trust, biomedical progress and U.S. scientific leadership.
