“MyoD is not powerful because it commands other genes from above. It is powerful because its position in the regulatory network is such that its presence or absence reshapes the entire downstream landscape. Adding it to a fibroblast doesn’t just flip a switch; it reorganizes what the cell is." 💡
🚀 Exciting opportunity for early career researchers in Cell & Developmental Biology!

Having been someone calling for UKRI to give the community greater notice on call deadlines, I welcome this.
Drawing on the kids primary school feedback mechanism, here some feedback on today's announcement:
🧵
big news for us today: www.prnewswire.com/news-release...
Many women may not be using the best pain relief for period cramps, a big study of supermarket receipts suggests.
Paracetamol/acetaminophen was most commonly bought with tampons & sanitary towels, but Ibuprofen/Advil more effectively deals with muscle cramps. 🧪💊

“We have enjoyed strong cross-party support for R&D, but we can’t assume that’s going to continue. If the public aren’t seeing the value when there are difficult choices to be made with public finances, I think that’s a real threat,” Welham told @isaacbarbosa1.bsky.social

According to @edvardmoser.bsky.social, director of the Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience, the four recipients of the Kavli Prize in Neuroscience challenged what had long been regarded as a central dogma in neuroscience.

10 colour palettes I reach for in research charts — curated, and most are colourblind-safe. Categorical + sequential: Okabe-Ito, Paul Tol, Tableau 10, viridis, cividis, magma.
Skip default tab10 and rainbow/jet.
Which do you swear by? Anything I'm missing?

@thetransmitter.bsky.social asked what scientific paper has impacted me most. Hal Weintraub's discovery that MyoD alone can convert naive cells into muscle cells seemed like magic. I've been chasing that kind of magic ever since: www.thetransmitter.org/this-paper-c...
