What a monumental contribution. Very sad loss.

Dinner by the lake after a great Human Development meeting in Suzhou, China. Excellent science and insights at a lovely location. Massive thanks to the organizers, incl CSH Asia. Suzhou's neural tube shaped building a fitting bonus. #developmentalbiology #stemcells

The view from my window at 11:58 pm in Suzhou China. Could you please turn the dang building off so I can get some sleep?

There is still time to apply to become part of our team at Nature Biomedical Engineering! Please share! springernature.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/SpringerNatu...

The decades-old limit on how long human embryos can be grown in culture is under debate https://go.nature.com/3GnRpWg

☕Attending the @isscr.org meeting next week and looking for a recap of interesting work in the field during the past year? Take a look at our collection of #StemCell and development papers published across @natureportfolio.nature.com during the past 12 months! www.nature.com/collections/...

At a time when people are understandably focused on the daily chaos in Washington, these articles describe the rapidly accelerating impact that AI is going to have on jobs, the economy, and how we live.

Trump signed an order mandating the overhaul of research-integrity policies so that the US government promotes “gold standard science”. But many researchers worry about political interference and are mobilizing opposition. https://go.nature.com/43EYiKo

If we stop calling these “grants” and start calling them “contracts,” it’s clearer to people why this is such an abuse of power. This wasn’t a bunch of gifts. This was a bunch of binding contracts between researchers and the US govt for specific agreed upon projects.

Many CD and vinyl shops in Tokyo where you can make some great and rare finds

Very cool! Please science, can you make nose plugs for breathing underwater next? (Of course, still early days for these lenses...)

Cell therapy approaches are potentially limited by low oxygen supply post transplantation. Multiomic analysis of #StemCell derived #pancreatic islet-like cells in hypoxic culture identifies EDN3 as a gene that preserves beta cell identity and function. #scRNAseq

A baby boy with a devastating genetic disease is thriving after becoming the first known person to receive a bespoke, CRISPR therapy-for-one, designed to correct his specific disease-causing mutation https://go.nature.com/4ml3ZW6

Technology is moving so fast nowadays, and in many cases testing ethical boundaries. A great article on strategies for enabling dialogue with the public.

Grok (X's AI, commonly being used as a fact checker) was posting about "white genocide" in South Africa last week in response to EVERYTHING. Some suspect a clumsy patch installed. Seems the issue is resolved; perhaps dialled down to dispense more relevant propaganda? fortune.com/2025/05/15/e...

Yesterday, the NIH R35 “Outstanding Investigator” grant to fund scientists in my lab studying antibiotic resistance was terminated for reasons not related to the content of the science, or any actions taken by me or members of my lab

Wow, a new Pope. I know it is a first, and many people are saying it is crazy. It just doesn't seem right. But I think the church made a bold and progressive move by electing its first "Rob." This is a huge step for Robs everywhere, and I'm glad to see it finally happened.

Check out our latest work on the evolution of animal genome regulation out today in @nature.com. Nicely summarized below by @ianakim.bsky.social. www.nature.com/articles/s41... This is a major output from our ERC-StG project Evocellmap @erc.europa.eu at @crg.eu

Mitochondria membrane potential contributes to the selective advantage of clonal #hematpoiesis related Dnmt3a mutations in #StemCells #Mitochondria

You can still opt out in the US... for now. People often criticize the extensive surveillance in China - this is how it started.

Voted. Dropped my ballot off at the Canadian Embassy in Tokyo. Got a really lovely view of the city as a reward 😊 #CanadaVotes #CanadianElection

A landmark in medicine!

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

get chomped!
