In vivo single-cell gene editing using RNA electroporation reveals sequential adaptation of cortical neurons to excitatory-inhibitory imbalance
The balance between excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission is fundamental for normal brain function, yet the adaptation of individual neurons to disrupted excitatory-inhibitory balance is not wel...

“As the field of robotics continues to advance, so must equitable representation among the various demographics of this community.” - wonderful article by @quisebell.bsky.social in Science Robotics.
How about an academic post?
Excited to share my solo-authored work published today in Science Robotics (@science.org).
I detailed the importance of intentionality in creating diverse and equitable spaces within robotics, drawing from my own experiences.

Promoting diverse and inclusive spaces with intentionality
Developing spaces that foster and embrace diverse perspectives and backgrounds with intentionality benefits everyone involved.

ETH researchers have modified certain bacteria with UV light so that they produce more cellulose. The basis for this is a new approach with which the researchers generate thousands of bacterial variants and select those that have developed into the most productive.

Researchers from ETH Zurich and Empa have developed a hydrogel implant that can help prevent endometriosis, a condition that affects a great many women. This innovation also acts as a contraceptive.
