What does a " butterfly effect " look like inside plants? Small changes in one cell type induce a "chain reaction" in other cell types, including cell cycle modification, morphology, etc. doi.org/10.1111/plb.70287Dig…

Qué tristeza leer en @Nature el homenaje a Marta Shahbazi Alonso y Tamara González Costa, dos investigadoras que perdieron la vida en el accidente ferroviario de Urda. Marta investigaba el desarrollo temprano de los embriones humanos y Tamara, la biología cardiovascular. Conmueve conocer su pasión por la ciencia, su curiosidad y sus ganas de seguir descubriendo. Seguro que su trabajo y entusiasmo sequiran inspirando a otras generaciones de científicos. nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

(3/3) I also shared our recent effort to make a translational approach for cell biology studies into crop plants. Thanks to my amazing grad student @julia_zheku for leading the project and grateful to wonderful collaborations with @raju_aafc, Shawn, Thorsten, and Steve's labs.

transport/communication is a key in the system (our body) regulation
A dazzlingly color-coded thin section of a vagus nerve. "The vagus nerve snakes through the human body like an elaborate highway system, transmitting signals from the brain to the heart, lungs, and gastrointestinal system and back. But despite its critical role in regulating breathing, heart rate, and digestion, researchers have long struggled to map its anatomical structure—until now." #Science #Biology #Neuroscience ⏯️Major highway of the human nervous system gets a complete road map science.org/content/article/…
