And another #PaperHistory thread for those interested in the material worlds of the past, dear #histodons.

You see a trompe l'oeil painting from 1883 by Walter Goodman: The Printsellers Window. It may have also been called the Papersellers Window https://magart.rochester.edu/objects-1/info/3889

Let's have a deeper look at the paper worlds present in this painting. The nineteenth-century in Europe was, just like the early modern period, a paper world of its own: another paper age. Paper was everywhere. #History

Aquatint by Madalena from a series of prints created between 2017- 2021 consisting of several stages, doors, caves or forests, where figures have been inserted through the technique of chine-collé & colours added through viscosity printing.

On this day, I like to reflect on my #students . The #diversity in their faces, that just a little over 50 years ago may not have existed. I consider it an honor to work with all of my students. I also have #teachers ask me about books all the time, so I have lists bookmarked, and am adding to all the time. Because it is immensely important that our students see themselves reflected in their reading. Here's one of the lists.

How does the genome orchestrate the development of mulicellular organisms? Which mutations are causing disease?

#introduction

I'm a scientist at the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg. To answer such questions we develop tools for #CRISPR genome engineering. Our main system is the fruit fly #Drosophila.

While we mostly focus on inactivating genes, we sometimes also 'tag' genes to make their products visible. Such as in the pic below.

Our review about the evolution of the innate immune system in animals is finally out in Nature Ecology & Evolution. Ancient roots, rapid adaptation, and many losses...
We also talk about future research directions that we believe can push the field forward.

#Introduction somewhat late to the show, but finally found the time to switch platforms.

Hi everyone 👋​, I’m a postdoctoral researcher working in computational systems neuroscience. My research is at the interface of NHP electrophysiology, behavior, and modeling.

I am very much a proponent of the “computation through dynamics” framework (inherited from my time as a PhD student in the Jazayeri lab @MIT) and hope to extend these ideas to understand not just how neurons perform computation, but also how we “learn through dynamics”.

Long-term, I aspire to work with theoreticians to tighten the loop between models and experiments and speed up the process of finding guiding principles for computation and learning.

Looking forward to fun science discussions on this platform !

The authors of a new GBE article pay homage to the iconic cover of a 1970 book by Susumu Ohno. Read the article by @SaraWighard et al.-- A New Hope: A Hermaphroditic Nematode Enables Analysis of a Recent Whole Genome Duplication Event https://buff.ly/3CzSlli #science #evolution
