Eine Arbeit meiner Gruppe gemeinsam mit anderen exzellenten Leuten aus Hamburg wurde heute zur Veröffentlichung angenommen! Cheers!

When Maria Reva announced her new book ENDLING, there were so many similarities to my ENDLING that people accused her of copying. But: We were just independently inspired by an article by @edyong209.bsky.social, which is absolutely mindblowing and very cool. She, Ed Yong & I talked about it:

🚨 Preprint Alert! New work from the group!

🟤 We set out to explore how brown adipose tissue (BAT) adapts to cold.

🧬🖥️ Using single-nucleus mRNA-sequencing, we dissected murine BAT and uncovered distinct adipocyte subtypes.

🫓 One in particular stood out...

The LAM Is Not Enough–An Idea to Watch Regarding Adipose Tissue Macrophages and Their Disease Relevance Click on the article title to read more.

I wrote about an idea to watch and borrowed a concept from systems theory: How LAM cells could mediate a hysteresis effect (i.e. memory) in adipose tissue during weight cycling.

Humans in Africa’s wet tropical forests 150 thousand years ago - Nature The identification of tools dated to the time of Homo sapiens associated with microfloral evidence of wet tropical forests indicates that West African forests were occupied by humans much earlier...

In @nature.com we show that humans lived in rainforests ~150,000 years ago – over double the previous oldest estimate. Their presence in West Africa’s rainforests demonstrates the spread of early humans and places ecological diversity at the heart of our species.

I don’t understand what you are trying to tell

Yeah, thank you. I am so sorry what is happening to your country! Hard to cope with all of this

Are you stupid?

I had the sweetest dream last night. I was driving on the LIE and there was Donald Trump in a red jumpsuit, picking up trash beside the highway.
