Why doesn’t #light reset our #circadian clock during the day? The gate isn’t only in the brain (SCN), but also in the eye. The #ipRGCs limit their own firing, which shapes when light can produce a phase shift. rdcu.be/eZ8cH

Finally, someone has solved a real problem with AI! No more having to take a paper in the format for a journal that rejected you, and reformat it for a new journal. Well done!! formatmypaper.com

Can’t sleep? Tune your (internal) clock. Go outside in the middle of the day. Reduce those night time lights and midnight snacks. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Allele-specific expression (ASE) is a widespread mechanism in primates. Understanding ASE across genes and tissues will advance our knowledge of its influence on disease risk and identify causative variants. Happy to have contributed a little to this important work. www.cell.com/cell-genomic...

Soleil(s), a fascinating exhibition as part of #TheSolarBiennale at #mudaclausanne which explores our relationship with #light through engineering, architecture, health, art, and fashion.

Perfect day (and spot) for the first bath of the year in the #Leman. www.bainsdesrives.ch

Light can influence metabolism independent of the circadian clock, according to a new #ScienceAdvances study in mice. Learn more: scim.ag/3DIu7bP

There are not many oysters in #Puglia, but there are the fasolari (Callista chione), and that's something.

And another role for #ipRGCs, the photoreceptors mainly responsible for non-visual responses to #light such as circadian clock resetting and regulation of alertness and mood, enhancing orientation selectivity in mouse visual cortex. www.cell.com/neuron/fullt...

BlueSci 🧪 time of day is important. Account for time of day in experimental design whenever possible.

Fascinating concept, frightening potential www.science.org/doi/full/10....

I'm a bit puzzled why the retina never makes it into these big consensus think pieces. Last I checked, it was just as much a part of the CNS as the brain and spinal cord, and also where a lot of the early single-cell work along these lines was first done.

Having a color-blind colleague is a good reminder that we need to be more careful when designing figures for scientific publication 🧪 My lab has found this page especially useful for selecting color palettes, used in combination with different symbols: thenode.biologists.com/data-visuali...

Something to keep in mind... I'm happy to use English as my work language, but frustrated by how this is often a blind spot among supporters of inclusivity stuck in a US-centric view of research
