Wow! we didn’t expect this kind of response! 🚀
Huge amount of papers were uploaded in the past two hours, and our servers are feeling it, so we’ve temporarily reinstated a waitlist. We’ll gradually let everyone in, don’t worry. Thank you for the incredible enthusiasm and support!

A flyer for the Bioimage Analysis Beginnings Bootcamp - blue and white with a picture of cells on the top. It says "Learn core bioimage analysis skills using open-source tools for light microscopy. Open to participants at all skill levels." It also says it will be held a the Broad Institute, 415 Main Street, Cambridge MA USA, on Monday to Friday January 12th-16, 2026, from 9-5pm. Registration is $750 academic, $1250 industry, and applications are open at broad.io/BAB3

Big news! Our week-long #bioimageanalysis bootcamp is BACK! Learn how to think about bioimage analysis like the pros do, learn what corrections you should (and shouldn't!) apply to your images, learn open source tools, and more. Apply NOW at broad.io/BAB3 for our January 2026 course!

The Ig Nobel is incredible , one year an Indian guy won it for calculating the average surface area of an elephant and during his acceptance they had an elephant hold up a sign with the surface area of the scientist on it, they do showbiz better than the Oscars

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Allergen-induced airway matrix remodeling in mice can be prevented or reversed by targeting chitinase-like proteins Allergic airway matrix remodeling occurs independently of IL-13 and IL-17A and is driven instead by chitinase-like proteins.

OK--fluorescent protein friends. We want an antibody to TagRFP that works in immunofluorescence. Any suggestions? Re-post please

Important story dissecting the mechanism of gut cell extrusion using organoids. Local heterogeneity of tension promotes live extrusion and basal relaxation is sufficient to kick the cell out. Nice combination of optogenetics and live imaging to demonstrate this

Hannah Arendt knew all about totalitarianism, first hand.
And she knew how to stand up to it.

New research uncovers how epithelial cells maintain barrier integrity: Rho-ROCK signalling activates matriptase, releasing claudins to rapidly form new tight junctions during cell turnover and differentiation.

MBARI’s innovative EyeRIS camera system collects near real-time three-dimensional visual data about the structure and biomechanics of marine life. Filming deep-sea pearl octopus (Muusoctopus robustus) with this system has provided new insight into octopus locomotion that can contribute to the design of bioinspired robots in the future.

Check out this work from @gserranonajera.bsky.social and Apolline Delahaye! They show how gastruloids can employ different morphogenetic strategies to set up a body axis. It nicely builds from Guillermo’s PhD work recapitulating gastrulation modes in the chick: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
