"Our results suggest that developmental experiences may be encoded at the level of olfactory receptor regulation, and provide a simple mechanism by which C. elegans is able to precisely modulate its behavioral preferences as a function of its current and past experiences."

""scientists were locked in [to twitter] by network externality...unless scientists could move en masse to a new home, there was no incentive to switch. Musk may have broken that dam" nytimes.com/2022/11/19/opinion by @ct_bergstrom ht @cyrilpedia

Hebe de Bonafini, founding member & president of Argentina's Madres de Plaza de Mayo has died at 93.
The junta 'disappeared' (kidnapped & murdered) two of her children.

“Antes de que fuera secuestrado mi hijo, yo era una mujer del montón, un ama de casa más. Yo no sabía muchas cosas. No me interesaban. La cuestión económica, la situación política de mi país me eran totalmente ajenas, indiferentes. Pero me olvidé de quién era el día que ellos desaparecieron; nunca más pensé en mí”, repetía Bonafini sobre su pasado.'

"Twitter can influence the behavior of its users. The carrot and stick of likes and abuse may have led some researchers to bend away from the norms‌‌ that underlie scientific activity, like objectivity and organized skepticism. For example, scientists who made pronouncements on controversial topics — “Schools need to remain closed!” or “Masks harm kids!” — could find large partisan audiences who appreciated those conclusions, perhaps more than the quality of the reasoning that led to them. Once followers became fans, some scientists may have been reluctant to revise or reverse their conclusions in light of new evidence if ‌doing so risked backlash."

I'm new here at Mastodon. Any tips for getting the most out of it as a biologist, geneticist, genomics, stem cells, & cancer researcher?

👋🏼 I’m Raghav Chhetri, a scientist at Rockefeller University in NYC. I like to follow cells, neurons, photons through the lens of custom microscopes. I’m broadly interested in developing and applying neuroimaging technologies to understand the brain. I feel strongly about current practices in scientific research and strive to make science open, accessible, and welcoming to minorities, historically marginalized, and societally disadvantaged groups.

#introduction I am a neuroscientist interested in how sensory pathways shape motor behavior and adaptation. I use mouse genetic approaches to dissect how sensory and motor circuits interface in the spinal cord for the fluid execution of innate and goal-oriented tasks. Started my research group last year at the University of Cologne. Occasional posts about food item below Italian standards, e.g. pizza Hawaii.

"Runx co-factors compete to recruit a limited pool of Runx factors in early T-progenitors, and a modest increase in Runx protein availability at pre-commitment stages causes premature Runx occupancy at post-commitment binding sites. This results in striking T-lineage developmental acceleration by selectively activating T-identity and innate lymphoid cell programs."

#introduction My name is Yana Safonova, I am an assistant professor at Johns Hopkins University.
My lab develops computational methods for analyzing adaptive immune responses and repertoires.
Research interests include (but not limited to) immunogenomics, antibody responses to COVID-19, HIV, and flu, comparative immunology, and co-evolution of pathogens and vertebrate immunity.
