This was stressful A starter pack for cell biology-ish types It’s so incomplete that I am worried that it will irritate more than it helps (packs are limited to 50) But this isn’t Twitter/X so people will be kind, right? go.bsky.app/2z8z1nW
How do karyotypes evolve? Turns out an intracellular tug of war within the metaphase spindle sets the limits for chromosome number evolution. Excited to see our study out today in Nature Cell Biology doi.org/10.1038/s41556-024-01485-w 1/9
We are also welcoming new Board of Directors Leadership: ✴️Ludo Waltman (President) ✴️Gautam Dey @gautamdey.bsky.social@iaincheeseman.bsky.social (Treasurer and Vice President) Learn more about the recent changes from our blog post!
New science folks--things work a bit different from eg Twitter, as there is no algorithm to show you particular posts or individuals. Following different feeds is one way to get more concentrated news.
