The page (picture 2) was in the first of four notebooks he had created in London on the question of species change. However, he did not explain what he was thinking in words, but in a fist-sized diagram: a line shoots out from an origin marked with the number β1β and then forks several times. Some branches end in nothingness, while others fan out further and further.

On this day in 1859 English naturalist Charles #Darwin publishes "On the Origin of Species," radically changing the view of #evolution and laying the foundation for evolutionary biology. #otd

The project was a massive team effort that took months, so we're grateful to Kavli Foundation for recognizing our work with a Gold Award for Video In-Depth Reporting.

The shows an exploded view of the qByte device in the foreground, alongside a smartphone displaying output data app, with a fully assembled unit in the background. qByte is an open-source, 8-tube isothermal fluorimeter developed to address these barriers by offering a cost-effective (βΌ$60), yet production-ready solution. Its compact form factor, along with compatibility with smartphones and laptops for data readout, makes it well-suited for both laboratory and field use.
Commercial isothermal fluorimeters are pricey & unsuitable for field work, limiting their use in low-resource settings. @jenny-molloy.bsky.social &co develop an #open-source, #low-cost, portable isothermal #fluorimeter designed for various biotech applications @plosbiology.org π§ͺ plos.io/3FA7Fmn
