I am beyond thrilled to present my PhD paper with @rohner.bsky.social. We phenotyped a mutation in the circadian regulator Cryptochrome-1 that has evolved repeatedly in subterranean lineages. Now online at @cp-iscience.bsky.social:

Here’s a story about actual Nazis, the Original Gastruloid, and the lengths scientists will go for other scientists and for science itself. Welcome to Episode Two of the #LongBibliography

'We wondered how mechanistic questions, particularly at the molecular/genetic level, came to dominate developmental biology, questioned whether there truly is strong consensus amongst our colleagues, and considered whether a revision of our attitudes about mechanism is needed.'
A case for broadening our view of mechanism in developmental biology
ABSTRACT. Developmental biologists can perform studies that describe a phenomenon (descriptive work) and/or explain how the phenomenon works (mechanistic work). There is a prevalent perception that mo...

Wonderful
Mix two motors of opposite polarity with microtubules and they will partition space !
Microtubules will get organized in polar and active barriers, sorting the two motors in separated domains, leading to the emergence of a new type of patterns.

what a dynamic steady state! how does assembly match exactly the disassembly rate? how does it distribute in space without rupturing the cell in multiple pieces? fascinating movie!
This is a movie of actin filaments in a cultured cell. I like watching it and I hope you do to.

On days when you are just too overwhelmed, remind yourself of some good microscopy images :)
