Our work exploring a new explanation for the regulation of Hoxd genes and the #fin-to-limb transition. 🧪 It was an absolute joy working on this w/ @aurhin.bsky.social and @homeobox.bsky.social @denisduboule.bsky.social @neilshubin.bsky.social #evo-devo #InHoxWeTrust

There is a lot of concern about leaked genetic data, but what I wonder is, can a "reputable" legal entity like a health insurance company use this information? Or the government? Wouldn't the chain of custody be unreliable? #genetic #privacy

Join this year's CSH Asia Systems Biology of Gene Regulation & Genome Editing meeting in beautiful Suzhou, China, Oct 20-24. Let's bring the international communities together! Abstract deadline Sept 19! Infos and registration at csh-asia.org?content/2767. Please repost!

"the quest for drug targets have meanwhile reduced much of cancer research from a scholarly biological discipline to a transactional operation concerned more with cataloguing molecular alterations and finding associations, than with understanding fundamental principles using formal theory." Agreed.

Charlie Kirk is dead by assassination. This political violence needs to stop. Things will only continue to get worse. I didn't like him but no one should be killed for their beliefs and speaking them aloud.

Euchromatin hopping explains how some enhancers seem to initiate the formation of active regulatory landscapes, and why some/many enhancer deletions don't affect transcription quantity; there are driver and passenger enhancers. #chromatin #enhancers #generegulation

As a former #evo-devo academic that moved to industry, I can say that people with evolutionary backgrounds are very employable in #biotech. In fact, they tend to do better than people trained in more narrow topics like cell biology. Folks doing genome evo, please come to industry. We need you.

who will republicans blame for their problems when govt no longer exists?

@smpowers.bsky.social I found you!

Wouldn’t a sufficiently complex system stochastically produce regions of greater complexity?

We cut off all foreign aid, stranded 10k people, and saved 1 #%$%#&$ % of the annual budget. Awesome. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/04/u...

🎨 In case anyone need… The NIH BioArt Source is an awesome library of *free* professionally drawn illustrations for scientific presentations or figures. Downloadable in HD. Thank you NIH for this invaluable tool 🙏! Check it out 👇 bioart.niaid.nih.gov

Can someone please train some AI on large biological datasets like this, integrate with zfin database, and let me query it? #science #zfin www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
