Very excited to share our first @IAFultonSchools DNA Club published article in the peer reviewed @JEInvestigators on pillbug feminization by Wolbachia. We hope you enjoy it: emerginginvestigators.org/articles/23-299
Stumbled upon this amazing database of Astronomy simulations, sorted by topic. Superb stuff! 🔭docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
The full-size file for "Bacteriophage T4 Infection" is freely available @buildmodels at: pdb101.rcsb.org/sci-art/goodse…. I drew it at a scale of 1 pixel/nm, so the file is huge and hopefully good for poster-size prints. Here's a detail of the bursting cell.
Thrilled to have this out! And David's beautiful drawing is on the cover! molbiolcell.org/doi/10.1091/mb… (pdf here: theroglab.org/publications ) cc: @janetiwasa @dsgoodsell @MargotRiggi @nothingtolius Hyun Kate Lee and Simon Curie
Found some time today to work on the new illustration--here's a gallery of T4 in many stages of the life cycle, drawn at 1 pixel per nanometer. Now I need to drop them into the cells.
Beautiful talk by @vincentflora from EMBL at #MLD7 - both for its broad implications of symbiosis in the ocean but also talking about imposter syndrome and mentorship in science. Being able to talk about complex issues in science is the only way forward.
Starting July 5, #PrincetonU professor @SCampbellstaton hosts a six-part science and travel show on @PBS, "Human Footprint." The show explores how people have transformed the planet. bit.ly/3pA9J5S

Shane Campbell-Staton is showing the world how human activity is shaping evolution right now
The Princeton professor's research follows elephants, wolves and urban lizards. He hosts the new PBS series, "Human Footprint."
In the 20th century, scientists began to suspect that atmospheric CO2 might be increasing beyond its historical range. This newly updated Data Point activity includes the Keeling Curve, a graph tracking changes in atmospheric CO2 concentration. bit.ly/KeelingDP

Happy birthday to Nettie Stevens, the geneticist who first described X and Y chromosomes. This classic animation describes how DNA is packaged into chromosomes to allow for the division of nuclei during mitosis. bit.ly/ChromosomeVideo
Wildfires in the West are a local phenomenon relevant to many students. In this new activity, students are asked to support their claims about what’s leading to an increase in the number and intensity of wildfires using a variety of data sources. bit.ly/WildfiresBI
Cells are very fast and crowded places. A molecule of glucose flies through a cell at 250 mph. A protein tumbles 60 million times per minute. These numbers seem made up. How did we figure this stuff out?
📢Save the date for next week's #prAIrie #colloquium on Tuesday 27 June at 15h: 💡Srini Turaga @srinituraga from @HHMIJanelia will give a talk on "Machine learning with mechanistic models" 📇Bio & Abstract: prairie-institute.fr/evenement/mach… 👉via Zoom: u-paris.zoom.us/j/82231267433?…
This shape-shifting robot by researchers at @MPI_IS can incinerate cancer cells, stop bleeding and deliver drugs to hard-to-reach areas. Inspired by pangolins, the centimetre-sized robot combines soft bodies with overlapping aluminium plates. Learn more: newscientist.com/article/237872…
Marc Edwards, assistant professor of biology, sat down with President Elliott (@mellio2) to talk about the #STEM Incubator Program: how it started, its goals, and how it feels now that the first cohort of students are graduating.
Interested in having your students generate and refine models? Our newest web tool, Model Builder, also allows students to check their own work and allows automated scoring of students’ models by educators. bit.ly/ModelBuilderBI
Hibernating brown bears rarely suffer from blood clots despite 6 months of immobilization. A new Science study has revealed a factor that appears to protect the animals against this immobility-associated thrombosis. Learn more: scim.ag/2v8, scim.ag/2v9
Happy early birthday to Wangari Muta Maathai, winner of the Nobel Prize for her work on reforestation. In this short film, see how conservationists and community members are working together to connect forest segments to expand wildlife habitats. bit.ly/AntsGrizzliesBI
Hey, did you know that you can export any animated powerpoint slide as a .gif? I had no idea. That's how @peterlconlin made this sweet animation.
What prevents multicellular organisms from evolving back to their ancestral state of unicellularity? In a new preprint, @peterlconlin, Heather Goldsby and colleagues show how division of labor can lead to the entrenchment of multicellularity. 🧵(1/14) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
The potential of Big Night - salamander crossings, is close #AmherstMA To limit amphibian mortality & keep volunteers safe we may temporarily close a portion of Henry St. on given nights. Digital signage will be posted, full details & learn about Big Night amherstma.gov/CivicAlerts.as…
