📣 Our October issue is online! www.embopress.org/toc/17574684... This month's cover highlights the article by C. Zhu, M. Kong et al (www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....) that uncovers a new mechanism underlying #MyocardialFibrosis with druggable targets. Scientific illustration by the authors

In which my critical commentary of @itiscolossal.bsky.social's #DeExtinction #DisInformation campaign sadly merits a subsection; debate is essential for scientific discourse, it should be heated, never be personal; I'm grateful for @embopress.org coverage; sunlight is the best disinfectant. 🧪 🌱🐋

My first ever non-peer reviewed science-related piece. Together with Howard Wolinsky and Holger Breithaupt @embopress.org It's about how scientists critical of de-extinction are targeted by dark PR tactics: www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....
