The problem with being such an avid reader since my #papersofnote days is that I cannot have a reasonable number of citations. I want to take you on a grand tour of the literature! This manuscript draft is 7.25 single spaced pages. 84 references. #academicsky

I’m skeetorializing a paper every day in July with #papersofnote! Mostly circadian/sleep neuro but sometimes whatever moves me. Today it’s gonna be social psych!

🧪 #papersofnote Sleep is regulated by both circadian and homeostatic processes. Examining 7 Drosophila species, the Gilestro lab finds that all species have circadian regulation of sleep, but homeostatic sleep rebound after deprivation is not conserved. doi.org/10.1038/s414...

🧪 What is #papersofnote ? Back in 2020, I took the papers365 challenge - reading a paper a day for a year and tweeting a summary. And then another year. And then a third year! You can see all the papers I've editorialized here, organized by tabs: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

🧪 #papersofnote I am a behavioral geneticist taking a lil' foray into social psych because @darbysaxbe.bsky.social and colleagues attempt to quantify how much cognitive household labor impacts maternal mental health and relationship quality. I love a quantitative metric! doi.org/10.1007/s007...

🧪 #papersofnote Chronobiologists are all about the core clock trx-translation feedback loop, but clock genes also control chromatin accessibility! The Clowney and Yadlapalli labs team up to to ATACseq on fly clock neurons and identify distinct dawn and dusk motifs. doi.org/10.1371/jour...

🧪 #papersofnote The Bonini lab identifies AP1+ glial cells as bona fide senescent cells in vivo, and then uses then to interrogate what makes some cells become senescent. It turns out a little senescence is necessary, but reducing glial senescence extends lifespan. doi.org/10.1038/s415...

#papersofnote is back for weekdays in July! Dif is an NF-kB trx factor homologous to mammalian Rels. Loss of Dif (mutants, transhets) reduces daily sleep, increases latency to sleep at night, and reduces sleep rebound after mechanical deprivation. doi.org/10.1093/slee...

Giving your gene a Star Wars name is a good way to get on #papersofnote. Using existing fly RNAseq data, this paper identifies deathstar, a gene expressed in eaat1+ astrocyte-like glia. Glial knockdown of deathstar affects lifespan and locomotion. doi.org/10.1080/1933...

And if you are a Serious Academic who doesn't want my other random blithering, I'm tagging my paper summaries with #papersofnote in the first tweet so you can curate those for yourself. But I skeet what I want and make no guarantees about my other content! 😜
