We study principles of biological time control with a focus on the emerging concept of autonomous clocks. Columbia University & HHMI




This is an interesting observation with potential practical implications but, as long as there is no independent confirmation/reproduction it will remain just an anecdote.

Nikola Tesla on the importance of seclusion and solitude (1934) ✍️ The mind is sharper and keener in seclusion and uninterrupted solitude. No big laboratory is needed in which to think. Originality thrives in seclusion free of outside influences beating upon us to cripple the creative mind. Be alone, that is the secret of invention; be alone, that is when ideas are born.



"Don't follow the existing research." To truly make an impact, this year's chemistry laureate Susumu Kitagawa advises young scientists to think independently and follow their own path. Kitagawa was awarded the Nobel Prize for his work developing MOFs, porous materials which are able to store and release small molecules, in an amazing array of uses.

New preprint alert! We've uncovered the role of the microtubule-associated protein Ccdc66 in maintaining the stability and disassembly of the primary cilium. Our findings reveal how Ccdc66 depletion leads to unstable cilia and affects signaling pathways like Hedgehog and Wnt.
