Quinta dos Abibes Sauvignon Blanc, from Bairrada (near Coimbra). A small winery that we visited couple of years ago, I think this was the last bottle (they make a great sparkling, but those are long gone).

"I knew that I had to start from scratch and wanted to try something more innovative and unusual. For the previous eight years, I worked on circulating cells, but now turned to blood and plasma. Scientifically, it was a very exciting time. I remember when we first looked at maternal plasma and saw that we could detect cell-free DNA, I could not believe my eyes. All these years, we were looking in the wrong place. It was just amazing that we could take a few drops of plasma and boil it for five minutes and get a signal that was so robust."

New #instance , new #introduction !
I am a neuroscientist based in sunny Marseille (France).
After a PhD in NYC in the lab of JL Pena, and a postdoc with Zach Mainen and the #InternationalBrainLab, I recently joined the #CNRS as a tenured researcher.
My work combines #experimental and #computational approaches to study the neural dynamics of flexible behavior in mice. My research is supported by the Simons Collaboration on the Global Brain (#SCGB).

Many people & companies have invested *heavily* in their Twitter presence (myself included) making it hard to walk away and leave it all behind, but do you really want to produce content for a right-wing extremist company that constantly changes rules not just on what you can do in the future, but holding you accountable for things they did in the past? If Musk is banning links to Mastodon.Social, how long until he just bans https://talkingpointsmemo.com or any progressive content?

'Although the molecular cause of sickle cell had been known since 1956, pharma had never shown much interest. Industry had yet to realize that rare diseases could be lucrative. And the few they invested in tended to be conditions, like hemophilia and cystic fibrosis, that primarily affected white people. CF also received far more philanthropic and government funding, greasing the wheels for therapies that have transformed the disease.'

'Using Drosophila melanogaster wing shape, we ask if we can replicate allelic effects of polymorphisms first identified in a GWAS (Pitchers et al. 2019) in three genes: dachsous (ds ), extra-macrochaete (emc) and neuralized (neur), using artificial selection in the lab and bulk segregant mapping in natural populations.'
