We found a new brain shuttle! Mucins on brain endothelium mediate transcytosis of cargo linked to mucin-binding “C domain”. Congratulations Sophia Shi, now a Roland Fellow @harvard.edu, and longtime collaborator Tony Wyss-Coray @stanfordmedicine.bsky.social

This image illustrates how combining perennial genes with prostrate growth genes allows cultivated rice to mimic wild rice.
Wild rice is a perennial, creeping plant. The secret to its perennial growth habit lies in a developmental reversal directed by small RNAs. This image illustrates how combining perennial genes with prostrate growth genes allows cultivated rice to mimic wild rice.

CAR-T cells show promising results in preclinical glioblastoma models, yet clinical benefit in patients has been limited. To understand why, we used a human brain slice model that preserves the native human GBM tumor microenvironment. 🧠
Impressive work Yahaya 👍

Interesting and impactful 👏 💎
Good concept but 🙅 and would rather prefer in-built global and project specific memory files. code.claude.com/docs/en/memory For detailed history, safer to grep/rg ~/.claude/ over exposing unwarranted APIs. Worth noting potential security risks (C1, C2). github.com/thedotmack/c...

Worth a read
Join @eunhee-yi.bsky.social lab if curious about ecDNA in cancer evolution and doing impactful science with cordial PI 🚀🫰
Ep 23 - So what actually IS CellPainting anyway? You may have heard of it if you're say, a fan of the @drannecarpenter.bsky.social - @shantanu-singh.cc lab (and who isn't????), but what, you know, is it? Let @erinweisbart.bsky.social break it down for you!

On early origin and maintenance of WGD despite (instability driven) fitness cost an organism has to endure.
All right it’s time for the annual “please tell us about one (or a few if you are ambitious) paper from 2025 that really impressed you and why we should all read it“! Go! If you tell us how it changed your view of the world and what makes it so powerful and consequential It would be excellent.
Episode 17 - perhaps my favorite yet. How do you write a forum.image.sc post that will get you the answers you need without revealing information you don't want to tell? @erinweisbart.bsky.social and I go through what the experts need to know to help you. Post your sci q's today on forum.image.sc !

Diwali - festival of lights Clay, Photograph by Nah Ting Feng, Dreamstime. From https://kids.nationalgeographic.com/pages/article/diwali: lamps symbolize the inner light that protects each household from spiritual darkness.
तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय From darkness, lead me to the light.
Focus on the good and let the year be an act of random kindness.
Happy Diwali 🪔

@florisbarthel.bsky.social and team on liquid biopsy for brain tumors 💪
This 7-year journey has reached a first milestone! 🥳 Excited to share our preprint (3rd of 2025) on the 3D telomeric interactome, a project that started with a K99 in 2018. Thanks to Yi-An Chen, first postdoc in our lab and first author who worked tirelessly to realize this dream. bit.ly/3W3wuMk

Halfway to I2K is BACK, friends of all kinds! Last year, 650 people attended 30+ TOTALLY FREE image analysis workshops of all kinds, across many timezones.
If you make image analysis software and want to teach it, workshop submissions are open now! We'd love to have your tool highlighted.
will go with second for Chemistry prize and would add Shankar Balasubramanian
Studying cancer evolution needs multi-region or single cell seq for phylogenetics, right? Amazingly (I think!) we found single-sample bulk methylation suffices, via analysis of "fluctuating methylation". In @nature.com today led by brilliant @calumgabbutt.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Episode 11 - In which @erinweisbart.bsky.social and I talk about just how much we love ilastik (@ilastik-team.bsky.social) and how it's great for so many problems! Also, that you should use a small brush.
