In this review we map the journey to animal multicellularity and define three extinct ancestral stages:
🔹 LUAA: Last Unicellular Animal Ancestor.
🔹 FACA: First Animal Common Ancestor.
🔹 LACA: Last Animal Common Ancestor.

Welcome to the Institute, Stern Lab! @hhmi-science.bsky.social Investigator David Stern studies how insects hijack plant development. His lab’s discoveries could reshape how we think about pest control and food security. He & his team arrived from HHMI’s Janelia Research Campus.

Think of it:
Physics, stuck at the relativity/quantics incoherence, baffled by quantum entanglement.
Biology, we are incapable of modeling even the simplest cell.
Paleontology, human evolution is a mess , the more we unearth, the less we understand.
So far, the scientific 21st century is very disappointing compared to the same years of the 20th century. Am i wrong ?

DEVO was founded by two pairs of brothers in 1973 in Akron, Ohio. DEVO stands for de-evolution: the idea that humankind is evolving regressively. Their abrasive experimental sound, robot-like vocals, and wacky stage performances announced punk and New Wave. <Jocko Homo> 👉 youtu.be/p7dczENxnbE

The evolutionary extrapolations in this study struggle to account for empirical cases like Trump’s two election wins. journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

I am very happy (and a bit scared) to present to you what we have been working on over the last 4 years. This manuscript is exactly what I dreamt of when I started the lab and I could not be happier and prouder of the outcome!
