the shower is the alternate dimension where I realize I'm low on shampoo but as soon as I step through the curtain I'm transported back to this dimension where all my memories are wiped like in severance and I won’t remember i’m out of shampoo until im back in the shower

Both chambers of Congress have now passed the FY26 minibus with NIH provisions. The President will sign. (1) $48.7 billion for NIH (2) Full IDC recovery (3) No more multi-year funding (4) No NIH reorganization, maintaining the current IC structure.

Biopsies provide just a single snapshot of the underlying tissue. In our recent work published in @Nature, we made progress in estimating tissue-level dynamics from a biopsy using spatial proteomics. nature.com/articles/s4158…

New preprint! 🚨 Why has maximal human lifespan barely changed while median lifespan has doubled? We used a mechanistic mathematical model of aging to find that fundamental aging rates are strikingly conserved across individuals and over time. tinyurl.com/6xrv8329 🧵1/n

From earlier this week: Septin 9 is a biomarker for #ColorectalCancer, yet its role in the #gut remains unclear. This issue’s Cover features work by @sehamebrahim @dominikprobak & team @MedicineUVA, reporting on the septin cytoskeleton at apical junctions of intestinal epithelial cells, whereby it maintains barrier integrity and protects the intestinal epithelium from inflammation: insight.jci.org/articles/view/… The image shows the surface of the ileum where SEPT9 is expressed.

@JeremiahDJohns @n5p6hd2kwie a significant real-world effect is that thousands of hours of researcher time and money can now be devoted to other problems besides protein structure. its a hidden benefit with large eventual yields.

What are the best non-chatbot, non-content examples of how AI can be socially beneficial? What real world, non-digital impact has AI made? Or could make in the near future? Things like driverless cars, applications to manufacturing, advances in science, etc.

Check out our new preprint on the discovery of a molecular switch in NAC that mediates nascent chain sorting on the ribosome and prevents mitochondrial protein mistargeting by SRP. A great collaboration with the Shan Lab @Caltech and the Qi Lab @UVA: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
