A #CRISPR based tool (Cas12a2) that can target specific cells based on a recognised transcript
To me, this looks like a very powerful tool for sequence-specific depletion of pathogenic cells

1/🧵 Can transcription factor condensate formation be explained without phase separation? Our new preprint introduces SPARK, a simulation tool that reproduces condensate behavior (clustering, fusion, FRAP) from diffusion & binding kinetics alone.

Not wanting to be snarky but this is true of every technological advance in science. My entire PhD in 1983 was the fitting and refinement of a single protein crystal structure. Today I could do the same within an hour - no AI required.
Hyperbole does not help.
Les magistrates et magistrats travaillent en sous-effectif, dans des conditions lamentables. Je trouve insupportable qu'iels soient mis en cause par leur propre ministre. Il faut rappeler qu'ils ont un devoir de réserve et ne peuvent pas s'exprimer en retour.

Excited to share the first pre-print from our lab!!
Check it out here! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
We found that many RNA-binding proteins canonically understood to regulate RNA processing can also function like transcription factors and cofactors to directly regulate transcription.
Excited to share our new paper @nature.com! We developed PerturbFate, a scalable single-cell platform to discover how diverse genetic perturbations converge on a shared drug-resistant cell state, and key programs driving it, led by our incredible Zihan Xu from @rockefeller.edu

Artificial intelligence systems will allow a single PhD student’s output to match that of a whole laboratory, according to Demis Hassabis, a Nobel laureate for chemistry.
