Texas-based company @colossal has bred what it calls 'woolly' mice. The creatures had multiple genes edited to grow shaggy coats that resemble those of woolly mammoths, in a stepping stone to hopefully lead to the de-extinction of key mammoth traits. chemistryworld.com/news/coul…

China clearly sees the potential of proteomics and is about to place a gigantic bet on it; multi-billion dollar and 30 years!!! All the better for the advancement of science and health. We contributed to the white paper out now in @Nature nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Are LLMs a dead end?? 🤔😮 arstechnica.com/ai/2024/11/w…
What if AI doesn’t just keep getting better forever?

Watching @elonmusk speech at some rally...Totally mind-boggling! He's a BRILLIANT intellectual who says the world is UNDERpopulated. He says all people on the planet would fit in an area of NYC, but COMPLETELY ignores the area/volume that's needed to sustain their lifestyles.

🍂NEW VIDEO🍂 All through Autumn, trees race against time to recycle their chlorophyll--and basically everything else in their leaves. But why go through all this effort? The answers are honestly mind-blowing: rendered in #blender3d using @bradyajohnston's #molecularnodes

Why are all proteins ‘left-handed’? New theory could solve origin of life mystery

Experiments suggest chemical reaction rates explain how amino acid pairs, and perhaps DNA and RNA, get biased toward one handedness

Four years after the discovery of phosphine in the clouds around Venus prompted excitement, and doubts, we have new confirmation of the chemical that might signal the presence of life on the planet, @rebeccatrager99 reports. chemistryworld.com/news/cont…
Controversial phosphine findings on Venus corroborated
