After years of anecdotal evidence collection, I have concluded that the phrase "systems biology" means something different to everyone who uses it. 🤔

Spain’s MEP Irene Montero speaking to reporters

Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression — Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either

When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars — they hide behind women’s rights to justify them

EE.UU. estudia restringir los visados como represalia a España por las bases La Casa Blanca añade esta medida de presión, como hizo con anterioridad con Chile y determinados ciudadanos de la UE

Si Estados Unidos restringe los visados a los españoles, los españoles tendremos que pensar en pedirles un carnet de vacunación actualizado a los estadounidenses, sin excepciones. Propongo.

Women: We live in a constant state of vigilance because men pose a constant threat to us, here are literally millions of corroborating stories.

Men: What a scary time for men this is.

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

Support the Human Ageing Genomic Resources Help Joao Pedro Magalhaes raise money to support University of Birmingham

🚨 The Human Ageing Genomic Resources Are at Risk

For over 20 years, our Human Ageing Genomic Resources (HAGR) have supported ageing and longevity research.

We are raising funds to secure their continuity while we pursue long-term funding.

... And one more skeet because i forgot to post to the feeds ARGH 🧬🖥️🧪

Scroll up for three hot-off-the-press preprints on eQTLs, human genetic diversity, single cell RNA-seq and community engagement. We'd love to hear your thoughts on any of them.

Very hard to believe that there was really no advance warning to certain parties, for a programme of this magnitude

Would it be bad of me to think that someone got advance warning? Because it sounds like someone got advance warning....

Did you know…

We owe the development of modern chemotherapy and clinical oncology to the black oncologist Jane Cooke Wright.

Of note- basic research (cell culture) helped adding chemotherapy as a #breastcancer treatment option.

New newspaper headline for your Intro to Causal Inference lecture just dropped

Happy to share new manuscript I completed with @ee-reh-neh.bsky.social & @davisjmcc.bsky.social back in Melbourne. The work originally conceived by @ijbeasley.bsky.social focuses on how we can reconcile and meta-analyse eQTL studies across studies cohorts and ancestries. doi.org/10.64898/202...

Finally, today's offering! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

This began life as a very different project which failed because we couldn't agree on defining eqtl sharing across cohorts. So two young members of the lab dug deeply into this - first @ijbeasley.bsky.social, then @patrickgibbs.bsky.social

I searched my zotero library for 'personal communication', because these tend to be interesting and can illustrate how science really works. I was not disappointed, the most recent one in my library was this from @syeducation.bsky.social. More of this! doi.org/10.36850/mr11

If I play for a football team, score 15 goals in the first half of the season, and then transfer to a different team, my goals do not magically count for the new team, that did absolutely nothing to put the support in place to allow them to be scored.
