“…it would be possible to sculpt the duodenums of various organisms out of molybdenum, but it’s just not been apropos growth medium/zeitgeist for that kind of art thus far…”

Condensates are powerful ways to break symmetry and cells do remarkable things with them. Here we show that in a multinucleate fungus, a condensate regulates translation of a cyclin and a formin in distinct locations. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I am excited to share more research from my lab! This work, lead by PhD student Casey Lambert, identifies physical interactions as a method of communication to coordinate social behavior in honey bees, published in Behavioral Ecology. Let me tell you about it... academic.oup.com/beheco/advan...

These pretty, day-flying moths (Heliolonche pictipennis), only about 1 cm. long, are one of my favorite desert spring insects. The only flowers they visit (desert dandelion, desert chicory, or scale bud) close up at night; the moths sleep inside them, which is scientifically adorable. #BugSky 🌿🐙🌼

PIEZO2—unlike PIEZO1—is tethered to the actin cytoskeleton, enabling sensory neurons to detect localized mechanical forces such as light touch. Findings reported in @nature.com by @ericmulhall.bsky.social from @ardemp.bskyverified.social's lab link nanometer-scale imaging to sensory function.

"functoriality obstruction"

you fill a glass with carbonated soda, it foams up: you know that to figure out where the surface of the liquid will be, it's halfway between the top edge of the foam and the bottom: in some ways it's the opposite of what happens with critical opalescence, where the boundary between liquid and ...

ok but why does this owl at a watering hole in the Namib desert (which I saw via the watering hole's webcam) look like a little old English lady-owl on an evening walk who kicked off her shoes but left her stockings on to cool her feet in a pond on the outskirts of the village?

As you slide an osculating circle amongst some curve, something interesting should happen to Apollonian tab-completions (Anosov-esque)
