Why are plants green? Before you reflexively shout “Chlorophyll!” consider that most of the energy that the sun radiates is in the green part of the spectrum. To be maximally efficient, shouldn’t photosynthesis in plants absorb green light? quantamagazine.org/why-are-plants…

Richard Feynman was a brilliant physicist best known for his exceptional contributions to quantum mechanics and his captivating teaching style, among others. Here are all of Feynman's Freely available Lectures at one place. A Thread 🧵

One of the greatest mysteries concerning the #OriginOfLife is how it has emerged so quickly after the formation of the earth. This tweetorial presents a sketch on how the physics of chemically #activematter can help understand this puzzle better: nature.com/articles/s4146…

Here Nucleic Acids Res we hope to have provided a comprehensive understanding on the sequence code of #DNA fragility (all of it) to empower genomic #AI. Congratulations to the group, and Patrick in particular for spearheading the project. MRC WIMM RDM Oxford academic.oup.com/nar/article/do…

Lab preprint alert. Here we demonstrate that the read length limits for de novo genome assembly can be reduced. Relevant if you work with highly fragmented DNA, or if you want to revive dinos without the havoc of the Jurassic Park. Congrats Patrick! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Lab preprint alert. A paper where we demonstrate that something analogous to DNA origami is contributing to the 3D organisation of our genome. Congratulations to Liezel Tamon for spearheading the project. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congratulations to Patrick for being awarded the 2024 RDM Oxford graduate prize, handed during the recent RDM day. rdm.ox.ac.uk/news/2024-rdm-…
