I do not understand what do we mean by de-extinction. Even if we end up growing a breeding pair after genetic sequencing how are we going to avoid inbreeding and subsequent extinction.I do not understand what do we mean by de-extinction.

If you are looking for an amazing read this one will not disappoint. 🧪 Work on how dehydration drives male 🦟 #mosquitoes to ingest human blood 😱
So. Here it is. The ABSOLUTELY nuttiest study we have ever done in my 25+ years as a scientist working on mosquitoes "Revisiting the paradigm of anhematophagy in male mosquitoes" Let's dive into the paper www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Female mosquitoes are reproductively obligate bloodfeeders which feed on vertebrate blood to obtain nutrients required for egg production (driving transmission of vector-borne pathogens in the process...
This is the most interesting thing I read today morning.. and the practical implications of this in vector borne disease in desertified areas would be immense. The impact of climate change on driving this behaviour will also be interesting.

AI is worse than useless. It is easily the single most destructive force Silicon Valley has invented in the last fifty years.
1: AI is hallucinating events, historical figures, entire concepts on Wikipedia 2: a task force of Wikipedia editors is detecting and deleting this stuff www.404media.co/the-editors-...
WikiProject AI Cleanup is protecting Wikipedia from the same kind of misleading AI-generated information that has plagued the rest of the internet.
The UN Security council must be the top example of an useless organisation.. it is not United, not providing security and is not a council. #stopthewars
Anybody else getting permission denied errors when you try to get a BibTeX citation through Google Scholar? Seems to be happening to my colleagues as well... 🧪
I always believe it is important to peer review protocols not results. Once results are there peer review is an exercise in gatekeeping and does not seek improvement I always believe it is important to peer review protocols not results.
