Excellent #PlantScience #BlueTorial on visualizing developmental changes in protoplasts, featuring cool work in @dev-journal.bsky.social
I am very pleased to present the lab’s first #bluetorial!
This concerns our recent publication in Development @dev-journal.bsky.social doi.org/10.1242/dev.... This work, led by postdoc (and former grad student) Kelsey Reed, is the result of many years of hard work by a wonderful team. (1/n)

A protoplast-based method to visualize early cell biological events in plant cellular reprogramming and regeneration
Summary: This study presents a live-imaging platform for tracking individual plant protoplasts in culture, enabling analysis of cellular processes, signaling dynamics and developmental transitions.

Glial cells gate small RNA transport from germline to brain during transgenerational epigenetic inheritance of behavior
How circulating RNAs reach their target tissue is not well understood. In C. elegans, small RNA signals that convey exposure to pathogenic Pseudomonas travel from the intestine to germline to neurons,...

Watching animals eat is like my biology crack. I don’t need it, I don’t have to do it, I don’t even always like it, but there’s just something about critters noshing on one another that leaves me gobsmacked. And nothing does it like the comb jelly Beroe [Thread 🧵]

Instead of bluetorial for our preprint, I've decided to write a short post series in my blog, because there's so much to share. Here's the first part describing the initiation of the project and our reasoning for the new nomenclature. Following parts are coming really soon, I promise!😅

Excellent Bluetorial on our recent collaborative work on NDH-2 from Bacillus subtilis from @rhyswg.bsky.social who led the work with Ashleigh as first author
Out now in @natmicrobiol.nature.com: Bacillus subtilis builds protein filaments that act as a pseudomembrane, pulling quinone out of the bilayer and carrying it into the cytosol for reduction by NADH dehydrogenase, well away from the membrane itself.

Are you using 5xFAD mice to study Alzheimer’s disease? Our work out today @cp-neuron.bsky.social may be relevant to you 🐁🧠 Age and sex are known to influence Aβ plaque burden in these mice. Here, we found that the transgene parentage is another strong determinant.

Serving as Editor-in-Chief at Science was fascinating. I greatly enjoyed working with talented and committed editorial, news, graphics, and production staff. But the inside look into scientific publishing and AAAS was also deeply disillusioning.
