NB I hadn't realised that @biorxivpreprint also incorporated the possibility of adding a graphical abstract to the preprint page, kudos to @richardsever et al

I feel like I should bring over my most impactful recent tweet, especially as I am about to set up the next #Pizza Solves Everything at The Roslin Institute #AcademicMastodon #AcademicChatter #AcademicToots

Recently I convinced the institute to let me buy pizza for the campus once a month, not as a morale boosting strategy, but as bait.

A few weeks ago with the postdoc committee, I hosted the first Pizza Solves Everything event.

An image of a pizza with hands coming in from all sides each taking one slice. The title "Pizza Solves Everything" above it is written in a font coloured like pepperoni pizza.

Just testing out for the first time so also time for my #introduction. I am a PostDoc working on lung #cancer and #liquidbiopsies and #biomarker development at the MD Anderson Cancer Center. Looking forward to meet new people here and learn how to use that network. Thanks to genomic.social for providing the server. #lcsm #science #cfDNA #NSCLC #SCLC #datascience
