This is who our government is calling a “monster” and a “domestic terrorist.”
Lies travel fast when violence needs cover

what stands out to me here is that Pretti is posing almost no threat at all here before it happens. In fact, he's helping one person who is hurt, then goes to help another person who is pushed, and only then appears to be sprayed right in the face before it all transpires.

Condensate formation is favored by the active, crowded cytoplasm
Excited to announce our latest @biorxivpreprint!
Mesoscale molecular assembly is favored by the active, crowded cytoplasm
Tong Shu led the charge, with @ElevyLab, @glenhocky and @Gaurav6032

Excited to announce our latest publication from the amazing Ying Xie in @MolecularCell
We find that stress granules and P-bodies fluidize the cytoplasm in response to diverse stresses. Tweetorial soon!

Happy to share that I am starting my own research group @BrotmanBaty and @uwgenome with an early independence award from @NIH_CommonFund #NIHHighRisk
Did you know that the @NIHDirector’s Early Independence Award supports junior #scientists to launch independent careers? Look at how this year’s awardees are “skipping the postdoc” and will pursue their own #biomedical and #BehavioralResearch

A fun improvement over the cell-squisher!🎉 I promise the original squisher was not built as a form of punishment for unruly cells
Do you like squishing cells as much as we do? Here is a protocol for a simple, inexpensive device using agarose micropillars to control the confinement, inspired by @LiamHoltLab. Fantastic collaboration by @ElpersMaggie, @AliceAVarlet and Richa Agrawal. currentprotocols.onlinelibra…

Really good piece and all the receipts proving this was no Monday morning quarterbacking. Every knowledgeable person who made contact with this effort knew it was a disaster newyorker.com/news/a-reporte…

Check out our Review in @TrendsCellBio!
"How it feels in a cell"
@bonucci_martina and Tong Shu led the charge.
We explore how the active, crowded intracellular environment influences biology.
Here's a link for free access until July 25!

Their results are bizarre and inhuman. @NeelNanda5 trained a tiny transformer to do addition, then spent weeks figuring out what it was doing - one of the only times in history someone has understood how a transformer works.
This is the algorithm it created. To *add two numbers*!

Biggest thing to ever come out of my little group. Pls help spread this finding!
We found clean, CAUSAL evidence that the shingles vaccine prevents a good chunk of dementia cases. So, could a virus cause Alzheimer’s->YES!

Gotta say, Opentrons put together a pretty good launch video for the Flex: youtu.be/d6ln-0LeT8A @opentrons

"This groundbreaking robot integrates state-of-the-art hardware with flawless AI compatibility". Hard to think of a more ideal application than @opentrons 🤝 ChatGPT automating your experiments 🤖✨🎉 forbes.com/sites/johncumbers…
I tried autoGPT and learned that 1) its a compelling approximation of what an effective agent might look like and 2) it doesn’t really work. You wouldn’t know that from Twitter the last couple of weeks..

It’s tragic that Silicon Valley Bank could lose 80%+ of its value in a single day.
But what’s crazy is that the financial collapse was largely driven by a communication collapse.
Their storyline unraveled and their messaging went off the rails, in 4 big ways.
