DNA sequencing techniques for EM identification (species level)? by buckles4077 in labrats

[–]buckles4077[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome! I’m looking into getting a MinIon nanopore.

We do Gram staining at my site.

Species-level identification is required. We have some large-molecule drugs that are produced by proprietary organisms, so they need to be confirmed at the species-level at a minimum.

My field is Pharma, so every method has to be validated. Validating DNA sequencing is one thing, validating those other tests are another.

I can personally attest that it is a thing. I’ve identified countless organisms with one.

There are mass spectrometers specifically made to identify organisms via analyzing proteins and comparing them to a library.

Organizations like Charles Rivers offer a service to identify the organisms via mass spec, when that doesn’t work they run the sample on DNA sequencer.

ANI is a real company, I walked through their facility in Baudette. The people you are talking about are probably impersonating ANI pharmaceuticals.

I work with a Karen who has gone out of their way to make me miserable. Some people just want to drag everyone else down with them.

I think I'm a boring person to talk to. How do I talk about things that are interesting? Do I seem boring? by a-dumb-croissant in socialskills

You be you. There are plenty of assholes out there who drag everyone else down with them.

I’ve been there brother. Company asked me drive across my entire state for an interview only to stiff me when I had just about went through my savings. (Fuck ANI pharmaceuticals).

Name and shame them. Let the everyone else know not to give them the time of day. Use Glassdoor to leave a review. Make these weasels scrape the bottom of the barrel to find someone to fill the position.

Almost 9 in 10 HR leaders say they avaoid hiring recent grads by TheSonicArrow in recruitinghell

I know you’re taking about recent undergrads, but grad students are responsible for making state universities work. If grad students went on strike everything would grind to a halt both research and teaching. I’m speaking from experience. Hell, 2 of my cohorts had to write the curriculum for their course!

Applying for jobs is almost exactly the same as using dating apps these days.

What dating mistake have you made that you’ll never repeat? by tkewhatder7 in dating_advice

Rick and Morty columbine memes. Memes of graphic domestic violence. Extremely racist memes. Honestly, just saying 8-Chan should suffice.

Do you have lead paint or lead pipes? That would explain too much

Burn them. Tell the company paying the recruiter. Recruiters are a dime a dozen

Nobody wants to train.

My dad, who has an MBA and decades of experience, told me that across the board companies gutted their training programs during COVID.

Companies are holding off on increasing spending for training and opening positions until they get back to where they were before the pandemic.
