Fascinating work from J.P. Vincent Lab @jpvincentlab.bsky.social A role for hypoxia in decelerating tissue growth during development Developing wing discs become increasingly hypoxic in normoxic conditions, which induces HIF1a that inhibits TOR signalling & reduces tissue growth biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Take a few seconds to appreciate this amazing animated map of @Climatologist49. It shows the changing hours of daylight throughout the year. This great piece deserves to be shared widely! Source: buff.ly/4ceueb2

We only rate dogs. This is a meteorite that has fallen from a clearly superior part of the galaxy. Please only send dogs. Thank you... 14/10

Hi everyone! I’m hiring for a super cool role! I’m looking for someone to manage the partnership between California Academy of Sciences iNaturalist & California Department of Fish and Wildlife develop processes to share community collected data w/ the State for conservation decision making! us241.dayforcehcm.com/CandidatePorta…

The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell, but they also function as cellular walkie-talkies, sending messages throughout the body. When mitochondria stop communicating, the biological clock starts winding down. Viviane Callier 柯蔚文 reports: nautil.us/cells-across-t…

Great article by Viviane Callier 柯蔚文 in Knowable Magazine on various ways histones directly regulate metabolism. I think we should start thinking about chromatin, not just histones, as a “metabolic organelle”. This view could reshape our understanding of histone/DNA modifications and mutations.

Scientists have long known that histones spool DNA and help regulate genes. They may be doing a lot more. new story with cool work from Ben Tu @PSarkies Siavash Kurdistani Tobias Warnecke Marcus Buschbeck and Lab (now includes all twitter handles! Thanks all!) shorturl.at/OO8Em

Thanks to Viviane Callier 柯蔚文 for this nice write up covering our discovery of the cephalopod Z chromosome scientificamerican.com/article/the-ea…

A mind-bogglingly old sex chromosome, in octopus! cool research from Andrew Kern lab, with great context and comments from @evolscientist @sexchrlab Jessica Abbott 🙏

I'm back to posting on this platform to share some exciting news - Harvard Organismic & Evolutionary Biology is launching not one, not two, but three faculty searches. Help spread the word!

Me to myself after reading the reviewer reports on my article manuscript

My new investigation for @newsfromscience: Did a top NIH official manipulate Alzheimer's/Parkinson’s research for decades? Neuroscientist Eliezer Masliah found to engage in scientific misconduct; 132 of his papers fall under suspicion science.org/content/articl…

“Also the first author” 👀

Histones, the protein spools around which our DNA is wrapped, may be doing a lot more in cells than packaging and regulating genes, writes Viviane Callier 柯蔚文: buff.ly/3NrIfrv (Isn’t biochemistry jawdroppingly fascinating?)
