WANTED: Suggestions of field ecology/animal behavior papers that have just super great "Methods" sections. Everything is clearly explained and anyone could replicate it just from reading that section.

Self-nominations are fine.

(Using this for my "marine biology field research methods" course) 🧪🌎🦑

Let's talk about one of the most interesting questions in cancer biology: Why don't WHALES get MORE CANCER?

This question is also called "Peto's Paradox" for epidemiologist Sir Richard Peto, who demonstrated the link between smoking and lung cancer, 1951.

So why whales, in particular?

I am still blown away Metagenomic assembly is possible.

A MAG or ‘Metagenome assembled genome’ is represents the total genomic information of an environmental system… the code of a whole ecosystem…

In short, the right people are working on this, they're not out to build a Twitter clone, they're out to reshape the web, and help us return to the original promise of an open platform, a sense of ownership, and the ability to share with each other on our own terms.

Doing some work this week modeling the metagenomics of the “Whale Carbon pump”.

Whales process an enormous amount of nutrients, and there is an entire planktonic web of live based on processing their organic output.

The carbon processing potential of this ‘whale pump’ is enormous…

Amazing coverage of an amazing paper!

‘Cap-stone’ species like sharks often have hard to predict 2nd and 3rd order benefits on ecosystems…

…so the potential impact on the reefs here is of enormous concern to me.

Every scientist on BlueSky should check out the “What’s Science” feed!

We’ve clearly seen that on these platforms you get the community you build, so let’s build something vibrant and amazing together…

…for science!!!!!!!!!!!
The "What's Science" feed is a feed of a curated set of scientific posts, from known members of the scientific (and closely related) community. 🧪

One of the most impressive and impactful uses of an accelerometer in neurological medicine.

Amazing that small changes this early in the illness process are detectable with good engineering and statistical science.

Spaghetti and meatballs, circa 75 million years ago.

But really these are Uintacrinus socialis, relatives of starfish called crinoids. This particular species living in big floating groups in the sea, just bobbing and noodling along while mosasaurs and plesiosaurs chased ammonites for lunch. 🧪

Research to the People at Stanford recently held an incredible conference at the intersection of multi-omics and precision medicine.

RttP does so much to drive forward the frontiers of oncology and rare illness medicine, and this year were amazing.

Will share the video here as soon as it’s out!

Have been working on a content series based on a scientist cartoon character whose name happens to be Stanley 🤗

Aiming to produce some 10 to 15 minute episodes that would help youngsters learn about the ways that artificial intelligence and robotics will be changing our world!

Find myself reflecting on the COVID-19 tracking project.

At the start of the pandemic I had a severe case of COVID-19, followed by even worse Long COVID symptomology... and it was at that moment I found the COVID-19 tracking project:

Yes, they are called « whale sharks » for a reason ;)

Been doing some Midjourney work with my Mentor Jim Budman of the historic Budman studio art patronage network...

... And it's so fun!

Jim has a very special collection of sculpture, and we're using photos of those pieces as a base for futuristic cities.
