This is a great article, but I would like to see stats by area/editor. Based on my experience and on that of many other colleagues working in #morphogenesis and #organogenesis, I do see many excellent papers that do not even get reviewed in @dev-journal.bsky.social and end up published elsewhere

What an adventure the last 2 weeks have been! We were selected for the semi-finals and made it to the final of #simfonies_ciencia! We didn't win the final, but we won much more than that. This competition gave us the opportunity to present our project twice in front of very varied audiences (1/2)

Why a database of bug genes could be one of Trump’s most devastating cuts at Harvard FlyBase, the world's only fruit fly database, is in the crosshairs of Trump's attack on Harvard. Here's why it could matter for your health.

Biomedical research budget cuts at Harvard threaten @flybase.bsky.social —known as the "Wikipedia of fruit fly research", fueling key discoveries in Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, addiction, birth defects, and more.
