Day 10 of saying nice things about biology SBEVE meme is a perfect demonstration of alternative splicing

Send help this Saturday the 30th at 1pm Eastern Time- I'm doing Trolley Problems with @chariseuphranor.bsky.social, Syzygy Altair, and Millenium!

Day 9 of saying nice things about biology I can think of nothing that illustrates the molecular nature of life better than the Punnett Square! While most traits are non-Mendelian, this made me realize that the mysteries of life, though complex, were knowable!

Day 8 of saying nice things about biology, I actually really enjoyed learning biochemistry back in the day. A molecular understanding of biology cannot exclude biochemistry, after all. If you want to know "why molecules be like that" - you gotta deal with chemistry.

Day 7 of saying nice things about biology. Phage. If they were a work of fiction, you'd give props to the artist for having such a unique, compelling design. Looking at EM images of them is weirder still because these things ACTUALLY exist - hunting bacteria that potentially hunt you.

Day 6 of saying nice things about biology. Chemotaxis is a bit like seeing some closely guarded secret. It's easy to describe movement as "intelligent and motivated", but at the cellular level, movement actually follows some simple rules - follow that scent!

i'm LIVE www.youtube.com/live/u6Mlw8R...

There are less that 24 hours until my 24 hour long MARATHON stream for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation starts! We'll be taking a look at PRIMARY data produced by YOUR charity dollars! And a bunch of fun guests on too!

Day 5 of saying nice things about biology I'm amazed at the extent to which we actually do understand embryonic development. Sure, there's a lot we don't know about what's going on here, but considering the cell fate of every cell in c-elegans has been mapped, I'd say that's a good start.

Day 4 of saying nice things about biology. Learning that our mitochondria are powered by these weird little turbines in the form of ATP synthase opened my eyes to the fact that beneath the mystery of life is just fancy little legos - molecular machines!

i hate myself 24 hour cancer stream this saturday

Cancer Stream Teaser: Did you know that ULTRASOUND is being explored as a potential complementary therapy for breast cancer treatment? Ultrasound has a funny way of interacting with cancer cells, making this a non-invasive, accessible option to combat cancer. We'll talk more about it on Saturday!

Day 3 of saying nice things about biology. Biology is one of a very few STEM disciplines where it is OK to anthropomorphize concepts (to a limited degree). Every cell, every protein, every gene has its own story, and it's kind of the foundation of my whole channel!

NEXT SATURDAY, 1/10 I'll be streaming 24 hours of Breast Cancer Research to raise money for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation! We'll be talking a LOT about cancer biology, from the very basics all the way to the cutting edge stuff scientists are trying to end this disease once and for all!

Day 2 of saying nice things about biology. You may already be aware of the Sonic Hedgehog gene. But there are two other mammalian hedgehog genes: Indian hedgehog and Desert Hedgehog. It was by complete chance that Sonic Hedgehog ended up being the most important of the 3! A plot by robotnik maybe?

Day 1 of saying nice things about biology I'm a neurobiologist. I like the fact that that beneath the infinity complex mind is a system of fancy molecular Legos. Makes me appreciate how individual cells, no matter how insignificant on their own, can contribute to a something truly amazing!

Happy Holidays from the Fellas! Stay well this holiday season!

www.youtube.com/live/9SUl1nt... I'm chatting with @restavt.bsky.social about how bioinformatics can help find obelisks in the ocean!

Today's Day 1 of the 48hr VRChat Film Jam～！📽️ Wish me luck～ ☆

I recently uploaded a video discussing pathogens smaller and more simple than viruses! Subviral infectious agents are a deeply fascinating rabbit hole to dive into, and for the most part, these are unknown in the broader public context! I want to fix that! www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQHR...

not me forgetting to bskeet... fishing during office hours! www.youtube.com/live/MLPZ8u0...

I JUST REALISED I CAN POST THIS UNIRONICALLY NOW

GIANT VIRUSES FREAK ME OUT! www.youtube.com/watch?v=r53u...

i'm LIVE with CATS and SCIENCE www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sLB...

It's time to break out phy the nyatrophil once more! This Thursday I'll be talking about the valuable contribution cats have made to our understanding of visual processing!

excited!!!

First neurons didn’t appear overnight. We trace their roots to ancient secretory cells - showing how lifestyle & behavior shaped the evolution of first synapses.🧠🌊 #Evolution #Neuroscience Our latest in @natrevneuro.nature.com Link: rdcu.be/eMX3E @jeffcolgren.bsky.social @msarscentre.bsky.social

Happening in an hour! If you want to challenge yourself to recreate the insights needed to make a Nobel discovery, come through! www.youtube.com/live/mUGAbLf...

Tomorrow at 10 AM EST I'll be talking through this Year's Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine! The lovely Regulatory T-Cell!

i'm LIVE talking about IBS www.youtube.com/live/pL3KPSR...

One of the most elegant, amusing drug designs I've come across so far! Hope for people with IBS? Tomorrow at 9AM EST! www.youtube.com/live/pL3KPSR...

RESEARCH HELL NOW www.youtube.com/live/oa2b4Dy...

TOMORROW, 1PM EST

This Saturday at 10 AM PST | 1 PM EST @myelinachemon.bsky.social and I will be diving deep into... Research Hell www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8ID...

GAH BACTERIA HAVE TOO MANY GENES THEY MAKE TOO MANY PROTEINS I MISS MAKING VIRUS VIDEOS

hi bsky! I'm collecting questions for biology trivia Thursday night! Stump me with your biology prowess! forms.gle/jF3XGJYwB5SX...

www.youtube.com/live/-iV29M-... in an hour i'll be talking about the complex etiology of schizophrenia!!!

www.youtube.com/live/ImdDH6o... Going live interviewing an anesthesiologist in 10!

Hi BSky! My Epic of the Neutrophil is now out on YouTube! To celebrate, a thread about neutrophils! 🧵

TOMORROW

what kind of mic do you think i need to buy to make phagocytosis ASMR...

C3b more like CDZ NUTS the complement pathway is pain

After two years of being a neutrophil online... This is one's been a long time coming! youtu.be/lG0VIAJy9Ck?...

watched yesterday’s Kirby Air Riders Direct and why does this machine feel.. weirdly familiar…..

As a part of a charity incentive back in January, I've finally completed a miniseries on analyzing the Plagues from Plague Inc Cure Mode! You can watch them all here: www.youtube.com/@phylumchann...

Do we sleep because we have mitochondria? Live in 15 minutes!! www.youtube.com/live/3RHKrpd...

Tomorrow at 9 AM EST I'll be reading a very interesting paper for the first time purporting to have linked mitochondria to the evolution of sleep! My first science in a long while! Link: www.youtube.com/live/3RHKrpd...

because a neutrophil's lifespan is so short, i fear that i may die before deltarune is complete
