How do cells adapt morphology to function? In a 🔥 preprint by @zjmaggiexu.bsky.social , with @dudinlab.bsky.social and @amyweeks.bsky.social , we identify a self-organizing single-cell morphology circuit that optimizes the feeding trap structure of the suctorian P. collini. 🧵 tinyurl.com/4k8nv926

So I want to put this in some brief context real fast, so this shows ~6 uniformed agents and two members of BORTAC in their Multi cam uniforms to arrest one person, and by Border Patrols own numbers they arrested 81 people yesterday www.reuters.com/world/us/us-....

Great review that pinpoints many critical gaps in the field! The PS "paradigm" needs to be tested/confirmed properly in cellulo in native conditions. Not easy.

My awesome advisor @wallaceucsf.bsky.social summarizes our new #preprint on a syntaxin that’s important for #healing wounds in the ciliate #Stentor!
Wound healing is a hallmark feature of all life, including single cells. In a new preprint, Ambika Nadkarni @biochembika.bsky.social investigates a new dimension in cellular wound healing: how cells recover AFTER the wound has been closed

hey remember earlier today when the world’s richest man demanded a deal to become a trillionaire by building a billion robot army to end hunger and crime immediately after he killed over half a million people, that thing that happened in real life earlier?

Please don’t put in the newspaper I got so scared in my big boy police outfit that I wet my pants
Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

It's hard to overstate how fully engaged Chicago and the surrounding suburbs are in this ICE madness. There are neighborhood watch alerts, spontaneous crowds gathering outside schools at pick up & drop off plus madly blowing whistles and honking car horns, this city is fighting back and hard.
