Big news: we are setting up a new non-profit organization to run bioRxiv and medRxiv. It's called openRxiv [no it's not a new preprint server; it's dedicated organization to oversee the servers] openrxiv.org 1/n
Homepage - openRxiv
openRxiv is an independent non-profit, the new organizational home for bioRxiv and medRxiv, enabling researchers to instantly share groundbreaking findings with the global scientific community.

Great opportunity! Please do get in touch if teams are forming around 'Rewiring Cancer Cells' we can include our spatial transcriptomics, long read RNA sequencing, high throughput image analysis www.cancergrandchallenges.org/new-challeng...

For many genes, the RNA and protein levels change in opposite directions with age.
Yet, they correlate positively within an age group.

New paper from @jhdcate.bsky.social lab: RNA language models identify mutations modulating ribosome function & stability. #RNABiology #Ribosome: rdcu.be/d2L7n
RNA language models predict mutations that improve RNA function
Nature Communications - Generating RNA sequences with improved function remains challenging. Here, authors present an RNA database for RNA structural and functional analysis. They use this database...

I wasn't convinced of the first Xodus mainly due to the alternatives not being ready. While now, this platform is ripe and ready, also a big fan of decentralisation. I do hope past mistakes are not repeated and this becomes a place where great ideas flourish.
