Molecular scissors are more than just an phenotype that bacteria evolved in their war with phages. AbuGoot team demonstrates the #Fanzors family to contain functional, RNA-guided endonucleases, and postulate how the early endosymbiosis of eukaryotes and prokaryotes led us here!

I've yet to see an undergrad course incentivize students to say "I don't know" when they genuinely don't know. Being able to admit it is so key, and I only learned this from my job. What if short answer exams gave part marks for "I don't know" as an answer instead of guessing?

My friend @SeyoneC wrote what was basically the prequel to my article on the Builder era of Biology. I'd urge any of my engineering friends who have are even remotely curious about biology to give it a quick read!

October's edition of CellNoir is out! I cover the state of Dojo heading into the school year, talk about our future plans, and explore the ways that ancestry was expressed as art in the ancient West African city of Ilé-Ifẹ̀.

1) Over the last 2 months, I have been thinking about tinkering with our current understanding of T-Cell therapeutics, CAR-T Cell procurement, and design, and applying it to something new: The issue of Senescent cells and their paramount role in unhealthy aging came to mind.

When we study organisms' interactions with eachother, it's called ecology. When we study our own interactions with eachother, it's called economics.

This is huge. Shoutout to the team for pushing Bulk-seq, with parameter customizability and all the key figures, to a no code interface!

Latch Verified now has three Bulk RNA-seq workflows that should be simple to use, flexible, and easy to scale. 1. Bulk RNA-seq generates count matrices 2. DESeq2 finds and displays top differentially expressed genes 3. Enrichment Analysis! Lastly…

Time to flip the common "how do I work in problems in biology?" question my engineer friends ask me. To all my engineering friends: Where should a biologist start if they want to implement engineering principles into their workflow?

@nimivashi15 On a student level, my colleagues and I created @thebiodojo for this. We expose students in life science research and students in engineering programs to the open challenges facing different life sciences disciplines and bring in academia/industry to give their perspectives.

To use it, you swab your vagina and send in the sample, which is analyzed using metagenomic sequencing, meaning it looks at everything, not just part of the genome or DNA. It costs $129 for a single swab, and subscription options are also available.
