I tried q.e.d recently and was pleasantly surprised by the nuanced suggestions it shares. What makes it even more exciting is that it’s absolutely free and allows us to share detailed feedback on the model’s outputs. A must try for all researchers!
And here's the report @qedscience.bsky.social generated for our new paper, summarizing what's new and what was already known before. I'm planning to submit q.e.d's reports as cover letters together with my pre-prints from now on (and so should you!)

Cold and lithium delay forgetting of olfactory memories in Caenorhabditis elegans
Nature Neuroscience - In this study, we identify an actively regulated process that governs the rate of forgetting in Caenorhabditis elegans, modulated by both temperature and the mood-stabilizing...

Super happy that the symposium has a hybrid option.
Do check this out!

Tomorrow is the 2025 MiSBIE Symposium!
Registration and zoom link here: picardlab.org/MiSBIE
Thanks to the >550 registered.
It should be fun.

How does messenger RNA (mRNA) get out of the nucleus to become a protein? Eukaryotic mRNA is packaged, exported, and then translated in the cytoplasm. But how do these steps work? And what are open questions? Check out our new review for our take: www.annualreviews.org/content/jour... (1/3)

Excited to share that our paper on mitochondrial cardiolipin dynamics is published in @natcomms.nature.com today! We provide molecular explanations for unique aspects of mitochondrial morphology and the mechanisms underlying cardiolipin-related Barth Syndrome.

Cardiolipin dynamics promote membrane remodeling by mitochondrial OPA1 - Nature Communications
This study reveals how cardiolipin governs mitochondrial morphology by modulating the activity of human OPA1 and how its replacement by monolyso-cardiolipin, as observed in Barth syndrome, impacts mitochondrial membrane-shaping mechanisms.
