Lovely news for the summer! My latest artwork was just published on the cover of @cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social. Incredible science from @daveyboyhod.bsky.social lab! They discovered how pancreatic alpha cells regulate beta cell function via enriched GLP-1 receptor nanodomains.

π‘"Science is an epic historical tale, connecting back to the dawn of humanity and refining through generations, and itβs not done yet. For it to be accepted and understood, it must be told as such."

(1) talk to the editor, not the authors
(2) use functional language
(3) don't speculate
(4) put your strongest points first
(5) make it as easy as possible for your points to be understood
(6) do not reveal anything about yourself
(7) cheer up, this is just Tuesday for some of us

The image illustrates a person walking up a mountain, with skeletal muscle alterations visualized in the sky; the lighting towards the muscle represents muscle pain and the clouds around the top of the mountain are reflective of brain fog. Cover credits: Emma Vidal, DrawImpacts, based on the experience collected from real-life patients with long COVID.
NEW ISSUE! Discussing skeletal muscle adaptations and post-exertional malaise in long COVID, miRNAS in beta cell inflammation, mitochondria as pathogen sensors, lipid droplets in skeletal muscle metabolism, modulating ferroptosis against cancer and much more! (1/2)
