I am excited to share a new paper. It demonstrates machine learning can predict kinetics of numerous plant Rubiscos. This will ease bioengineering efforts and may allow species-specific parameterization of global photosynthesis models. 1/5 @JXBot doi.org/10.1093/jxb/erac368 – at Newcastle Upon Tyne, England

Using cable ties to arrest students? I see they have taken inspiration from their greatest alley. Awful tactics

Bacteria have an astonishing ability to put their life on pause in the face of stress and starvation by entering a state of dormancy. Here, we discover one aspect of this remarkable self-preservation strategy: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

The images from Rafah are unbearable. What is there left to say? Do our political leaders not see what we see? Is there really no limit to what Palestinians must endure? Enough! Stop equivocating. Stop stalling. Stop hiding — and call for an immediate ceasefire, now.
