I spent the day running experiments with yeast (S. pombe) instead of sitting in front of a computer 😊
I wondered how much yeast (S. cerevisiae) is in this cloudy IPA, looks like way more than I used in my lab today 🤔

#Beer#IPA#Yeast

Tangy, hoppy, and bitter, lots of precipitation, with 9.0% ABV, but I didn’t feel so much alcohol 🤔

We had their restaurant in our town, but they recently closed it. But I found their beer on the same street 😋

I use dance as a medium for listening better. For me, it is a technology of porosity, contemplation and enchantment. Sometimes, this quality of movement is observed and experienced everywhere: in a protest, in a warm embrace, in the darkness of a nightclub, in the magic of singing together or when a fermentation crock bubbles like a jacuzzi in the kitchen.

Super thrilled to take part to @massiasprout art residency in spring time at dear @massiaofficinale in Estonia. I will spend time with my research project 'Spontaneous fermentation: Collaborating with wild yeasts and revealing Massia's terroir'.
Basically doing some food choreography.
Looking forward to meet other participants and share quality time together.

Tomorrow is the deadline, the office staff told me that the NIH grant application system has been a bit unstable, my brain is also a bit unstable because of sleep deprivation, so I made some agar plates to clear my mind, it seemed to help 🤔

While running last-minute experiments to support my proposal, a student in a neighboring lab said he’d never seen me “doing science” before. I'm sure he meant “doing experiments,” but I do feel I'm “doing science” when I'm doing experiments, rather than working (on science) at a computer🤔

Consumer Labs found that some oats on the market contained a disturbing amount of gluten.

I would share the article but I think you have to log onto to read it.

Rolled Quaker Oats 100% Whole Grain Oats Old Fashioned has 672.3 ppm gluten in it. It goes off the chart below there is so much gluten in them.

The 365 brand oats from Whole Foods was at the top of their approved list. I don’t like to praise any Bezos business but at least those oats are gluten free for real.

(if you are using a screen reader and you are interested in the details of the charts below that didn’t end up in the alt text I can read the whole thing into a voice memo for you, just DM me)

Making some agar growth medium for facilitating fission yeast mating😊
They have two mating types: h- and h+ 😉
Malt extract in the medium 😊
Fission yeast - Schizosaccharomyces pombe 😉

I just made a successful pollination for our pumpkin (I think), now fission yeast’s turn 😊

It's been a while since I last grew yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe) myself - exciting 🤩
A colleague asked, "Are you doing experiments?" and I replied, "Yes, just a little." 😉
It’s also helping me boost my step count, definitely better than sitting in my office all day 😊
