AOC wrestles with left-wing Dems as 2028 decision looms Ocasio-Cortez has fumed about criticism from progressives, believing it's unfair and counterproductive for the movement.

Really telling how a bunch of leftists accuse AOC of being a sellout or a neolib for becoming popular within the mainstream Democratic establishment when Zohran Mamdani is making similar compromises and socialists love him for it. www.axios.com/2026/04/12/a...

Species-specific oxygen sensing governs the initiation of vertebrate limb regeneration Why mammals cannot regenerate limbs like amphibians do presents a long-standing puzzle in biology. To uncover the underlying differences, we compared amputation responses of embryonic mouse (Mus musculus) and Xenopus laevis tadpole limbs. Lowering ...

🚨 Why can’t mammals regenerate limbs like frog tadpoles or salamanders?
In our new paper in @science.org , we show that species-specific oxygen sensing acts as a gatekeeper for initiating limb regeneration 🐭🐸
