It's Wolf Awareness Week. 🐺

Humans drove wolves nearly to extinction in the American West. Reintroducing them in 1995 was, and still is, controversial.

One more PhD chapter on the association of clock transcripts with the polysomes of the bovine preimplantation embryo was published last month with one review article to go, at which point all publishable chapters from my dissertation will be published!! - doi.org/10.1002/mrd....
Association of Genes Involved in the Circadian Clock With Polysomes in the Bovine Preimplantation Embryo
The circadian clock is not functional during preimplantation development because lack of transcription prevents the feedback loop required for circadian cyclicity. Moreover, transcript abundance for ....

This is a blow to science in a series of blows lead by a political war on science. Science is not the issue and I hope this government understand that they are setting the country back by decades in research that could promote human health and advance our country through technology and innovation.
