"Far from opening up the pandemic period to greater scrutiny, Hancock’s messages have merely flagged to his colleagues the importance of evading it."

'When presented to the immune system as either ex vivo-loaded dendritic cells or expressed from a viral vector, lncRNA-derived peptides drove a potent antigen-specific CD8 T lymphocyte response, which translated into a significant delay in tumour growth.'

Bacterial #persister resuscitation is a drug-dependent & non-stochastic process. Persisters can partition into healthy &non-viable daughter cells to survive antibiotic treatment ➡️ http://bit.ly/3YlmzQV KR Allison @emoryuniversity #antibioticresistance #dynamics #QBio #SystemsBiology

Next chapter in our 2023 RNA review series:
Nikolaos Stamidis & Jan Zylicz explain RNA-mediated heterochromatin formation at repetitive elements in mammals

Origin stories:
"I asked (Bert Vogelstein & Ken Kinzler), 'What prompted you to hire a naive undergraduate from Australia?'
I'd put on my CV 'hobbies: bushwalking', which is hiking in Australian.
They said that they were so intrigued by someone who bushwalked that they needed to meet me."

Illustration by Madalena Parreira for an interview I did with @matthewcobb a few years ago (a really interesting conversation about how he began writing non-technical books, "Then I suddenly came up with this idea of rather than write the biography, why not concentrate on this huge row that broke out in 1672 over who was the first to discover that women have eggs?")

"I think it was the first time that he had been to Africa, and health care workers had nothing but their bare hands. They could offer so little to alleviate the suffering. And I feel that that visit for Tony was quite transformative, and he appreciated that something could be done about it. That this was not an impossible situation, that we had the tools, the resources, and it just would take the will and the commitment to be able to change the reality of HIV in Africa."

Among our first #ReviewedPreprints, this study suggests that #Drosophila experience two hunger states – one driven by need and the other by pleasure – which arise from unique neural mechanisms. #Neuroscience #OpenScience #Preprints https://elifesciences.org/reviewed-preprints/84537v1?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=organic_pr

"The problem is that we have a government which has now shown over 13 years, 5 prime ministers and 10 or 11 science ministers that it has far more interest in tweaking and tinkering with the fine detail of the R&D system than in providing the long-term stability of vision and investment that the system urgently needs."
