The funny thing is we actually do know a lot about the developmental of tooth morphology…

Apropos of the obvious, which tooth type are the #ColossalBio #DeExtinct frankenstmammoths going to have?

LOL. See why you're the best journal, even though I hate post-publication journals‽

Read it!

Hard agree! (Obviously)

Perfect 🧵… the central domgma ain’t dead. Yet.

Nearly 80 students forced into 400+ push-ups at school, many diagnosed with permanent kidney damage, lawsuit says A dozen families in Texas filed a lawsuit against a charter school after nearly 20 students suffered potentially life-threatening injuries in February.

Since everyone who knows my #science is sending me this article: YEP, THEM KIDS GOT RHABDOMYOLYSIS-INDUCED ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY! And their risks for Stroke, Hypertention, Reproductive Risk, Demetia, and Death (SHReDD) just skyrocketed. GOOD JOB, ASSHOLE COACHES.

It me.

Apparently we can just de-extinct them now 🤷

Preach!

I am, just can’t decide which flavor 🍨

Never! Organism are anarchists…

lol. Writing an essay about organism being anarchists!

Can’t wait to read it!

I think you mean dialectical materialism!

I think the origin of the word corn just meant grain to the Romans‽

Disprove it ;-)

Everything evolves into crabs!

Eh, it’s tradeoffs all the way down!

Too much physics!

Thanks for reposting! We’re going to read the peer reviewed paper in journal club next week. This thread provides a lot of useful insights…

Pervasive findings of directional selection realize the promise of ancient DNA to elucidate human adaptation bioRxiv - the preprint server for biology, operated by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, a research and educational institution

My lab read this paper www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... for journal club, and had some thoughts on the strong claims made about the number of signals of selection found.

Reposting this old thread on the "Pervasive findings of directional selection" from ancient DNA. While the authors extended their results in various ways, I think many of these points still stand.

If nothing happens nothing happens — so very boring 🥱

Well, actually, I technically only need a monocle so shall get one and say “by jove, I think I’ve got it” far more often!

Nice!

The ultimate morphology!

(Not population geneticists!)

Never!
