1/13 So excited to share our new preprint!! How do organelles pack together in a crowded cytoplasm? we know organelles interact via contact sites, but how does competition for space contribute to organelle morphology and interactions?

The art of drawing is not the art of observing forms and objects alone, it is not mere mimicry of these objects; it is the art of knowing how far and wherein, and with what just limitations, those for...
Noise is key to evolution; entropy is key to metabolism. We have to stop pretending that biology fights against these things rather than relying on them!

Excited to share our discovery of a new programmable RNA-guided DNA-targeting system hiding inside bacteriophages that predates CRISPR.
We call it VIPR (Viral Interference Programmable Repeat), and it uses an entirely new logic to find its targets.

Finally learned Celtic visions weave and it’s such a lovely one! I got these really neat smokey quarts briolette tear drops and rounded beads that felt perfect for it. Gonna take some nice photos and post on the store!
I've seen these animations here and there on the net, but I just found their source: this amazing YouTube channel by @drewberry.bsky.social , which is a goldmine. From malaria lifecycle to signal transduction - full of super cool stuff! youtu.be/Xe-83tBcxhs?...

Bad vibes all around on the timeline, here’s a sweet image of a galaxy that looks like a perfect saucer surrounded by a ghostly halo. You can even see a tidal stream in the lower middle part of the image; this galaxy (M 104) had a snack recently. apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap26052...
Congrats to biomedical animator Dr Drew Berry on his induction as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Victoria, recognising his scientific contributions through captivating animations of the molecular and cellular world within our bodies.

It’s “hairy,” bright orange or red and “exceptional” at camouflaging. Meet the hairy ghost pipefish, whose recent formal description demonstrates that even well-studied marine environments like the…

Can randomness drive the evolution of microbiomes? In this paper, a new eco-evolutionary framework shows that environmental fluctuations can trigger host-level selection. Stochastic assembly isn’t noise: it’s the key.
