  1. So much has gone into getting hold of this little cardboard box of pills; upending my life, moving countries, the endless tests. But then it will also mean a halt to the degeneration of my eyesight, hearing, heart, kidneys, and nervous system (and that's pretty great!) so I'm feeling a tad emotional looking at this little box. I can't believe I've actually got it.

    Of course, it *is* ludicrously expensive (1 month supply costs $28,000 AUD, although I only pay 25 bucks. Public healthcare baby!)

    I'm now something of a celebrity at the local Amcal for having the most expensive drug they dispense 🙂

  11. Register now for the amazing hybrid centrosome conference in Istanbul, hosted by Elif Nur Firat-Karalar!

    Sharing this announcement on the fediverse. Unsure if Elif has joined Mastodon yet…

    Some of us might see this as the basal body meeting 😉

    Okay, here it is, the #Cilia group:

    @cilia

    My first attempt didn't work, most likely because of the "&" within the former group-name.

    The way I understand this: everyone can now follow this group. If the group is mentioned in a post " @cilia ", this is shared with everyone in the group.

    Deeply sorry that the name is now only "cilia" - it is meant for maximum inclusion!!!

    It should include everyone:
    #raredisease #ciliopathies #centrosome #centriole #devbiol

    Please join!!! 🙂🙂🙂

    Hello fellow Mastodons!

    I'm a graduate student amazed by the entanglement of intuition, imagination and science! 😁 I work on #cilia #centrosome dynamics in the #skeletal #muscle at Jyotsna Dhawan's lab at CSIR-CCMB, India.

    In support of #raredisease research and communities.
