Lab grown meat progressing so fast that it is 'nugget' which is in scare quotes rather than 'chicken'.

Saddened by Dr Shilo's passing. In 2014 when I was overwhelmed by STAP cell turmoil in Japan,he sincerely asked about my research instead of gossip. He also defended RIKEN CDB’s scientific value when its dismantling was proposed.He helped me hold on to my passion for science. RIP

Wonderful to read about the work of #ISSCR members and leaders & the progress with stem cell therapies in Japan. We look forward to highlighting the Nobel Prize winning discovery of iPSCs & exploring future breakthroughs at our symposium in Kyoto in 2026! nature.com/articles/d4158…

In preprints: robust segmentation clock outputs via cell cycle and synthetic coupling Here, Jorge Lázaro and Miki Ebisuya discuss two #preprints looking into the mechanisms regulating somitogenesis through cell- and tissue-level couplings: journals.biologists.com/dev/article/15…

1/ Resilin is a disordered, elastomeric protein used by insects to store and release mechanical energy. Its resilience (~97%) makes it one of the most efficient biological springs known. Properties arise from sequence-level disorder + sparse crosslinking—not crystallinity. 🧵

Why do humans live so long and how can we live longer? Clues from mapping the chemical modifications on proteins from diverse species 🧵

The only rule in biology is that there are exceptions to every rule. This is what makes biology infinitely exciting; even when you think you’ve got the complete view, the floor can drop out from underneath you at any given moment. Case-in-point: The nucleus is the thing that

If heterochromatin is really a liquid-like condensate, why is it not spherical? We investigated whether mechanical interactions between a condensate and a fiber network can explain the variety of morphologies seen in phase-separated nuclear compartments. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Scientists Cell Press reviewed 408 YouTube clips of sleeping cats and found 2/3 curled up on their left side. Here’s the neuroscience behind why:🧵 (Please watch their video abstract I put on the last post - it’s 100% worth it)
