Something we have probably all experienced - interesting to get an insight into the possible underlying mechanisms😴

New piece out today in Science with @rourkeobrien.bsky.social.
Remote work gave many people flexibility. It also changed how workers build everyday connection, support, mentoring, and belonging.

"This review of 61 quantitative studies that used causal inference methods, covering 20 countries and spanning three decades of evidence, indicates that the perception of maternal work harming child development (2) does not align with measured findings."

We've got a heatwave in the UK this week and it reminded me of this great @science.org special issue from last year. I learnt a lot working on the two Perspective articles: "Plant microbiomes feel the heat" and "Can wild plant adaptations help crops tolerate heat?"
Here is a short Perspective on the article in case you don't want to read the full paper: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
The evidence is clear: socioeconomic conditions play an *enormous* role in brain development
Amazing work by @smarek0502.bsky.social &co

I always find Jacki Scully's Expert Voices columns fascinating - this one is no exception. I hadn't considered the ethical implications of our increasing understanding of epigenetics before...

Previous brain-wide association studies (BWAS) have linked specific environmental and behavioral variables to brain variability. In this work, we mapped 649 variables to children’s brains and compared...
Epigenetics describes how gene expression can be altered without permanently changing the DNA sequence, for example through the chemical modification of nucleotides or regulation of non-coding RNA. Ep...
I'm delighted to present this Science special issue on Plants and Heat! Through a series of Reviews and Perspective articles, covering topics from cell signalling to ecology there is something for everyone here. (1/8)

As the world warms, plants in natural ecosystems and agricultural settings find ways to respond to the heat.
In a new special issue of Science, researchers examine how heat affects plants at multiple scales, from the molecular level to the biosphere. scim.ag/44cSw3Z
