Kupffer cell programming by maternal obesity triggers fatty liver disease
Nature - In a mouse model, maternal obesity during pregnancy can lead to fatty liver disease in the offspring, driven by aberrant developmental programming of Kuppfer cells.
We are SO EXCITED to share our story @nature.com:
🧵1/
Maternal obesity reprograms fetal liver macrophages, triggering adult fatty liver disease in the offspring.
This study uncovers how Kupffer cells act as intergenerational messengers in metabolic disease.

Preprint on "Improving spliced alignment by modeling splice sites with deep learning". It describes minisplice for modeling splice signals. Minimap2 and miniprot now optionally use the predicted scores to improve spliced alignment.

#OpenToWork: how laid-off US scientists are coping with shattered careers
Unemployed researchers face some tough career choices as they flood the job market after the Trump administration’s cuts to science.
Nature’s careers team spoke to a dozen scientists who have been laid off from US federal agencies and from universities because of federal funding cuts in the past two months. #Academicsky 🧪
