This is tricky navigation. A little less, useless. A little more, disaster. And who these days goes beyond the line of duty to help others out?

#TIL About countermapping.

Here’s a sample, made by a Canada non-profit mapping ‘Indigenous territories, treaties, and languages across the world.’

X Native Land Disclaimer Native Land Digital honors the sovereignty of all Indigenous nations, their lands, and their waters. We recognize that these boundaries and territories are representations of the sacred. We respect the rights of Indigenous data sovereignty, and we are committed to an ongoing process of collaboration, growth, and learning. We work to update and replace information that is a continuation of trauma caused by theft, injustice, misinformation, and ignorance. The map is a living document, informed by the contributions of Indigenous communities, Indigenous knowledge holders and their stories. It does not claim to represent official or legal boundaries. We encourage you to connect directly with the Indigenous nations to learn more about their territories and histories. This is an honouring of Indigenous resilience past, present and future.

Kudos to @bmj.com for introducing paid patient & public reviews & for seeking solutions to this challenge: ‘Half of completed reviews over the past 10 years were from reviewers based in the UK, 25% from the US, 5% from Canada, and the remaining 20% from other nations.’

The BMJ will remunerate patient and public reviewers
The BMJ will offer £50 for reviews by patients and the public From January 2025 patients and members of the public who complete a review for The BMJ will be offered £50 or a 12 month online subscript...

This is mind blowing! Sequencing DNA INSIDE single nuclei to map the 3D position of genes. I love the combination of technologies--imaging powered by expansion microscopy and state-of-the art sequencing, all underlain by good old Fred Sanger 🧪

7 years ago, I met a junior fellow named Jason Buenrostro who blew me away with a vision of futuristic genomic technologies

Today, we (Ajay Labade, Caroline Comenho) are excited to share our first steps into that future: Expansion in situ genome sequencing

Sunday reflection for practising Christians:
There is no justification for genocide.
Do not let anyone lead you astray.
Peacemaking, and bridging gaps, is your call and commission.

As we enter an Israel-imposed blackout in Gaza, some basic thoughts —

Nations do this to cover up their crimes.
Israeli forces will likely commit atrocities.
We will know about many of the atrocities later.
We all knew enough to stop this, and we didn’t.
