Fruit flies have a different type of blood to us, and their insulin comes from neurons instead of pancreatic cells. But important similarities mean scientists could use them to better understand human health. https://elifesciences.org/digests/98514/a-closer-look-at-insulin-producing-cells?utm_sour…

What if… spontaneous neural activity 🧠 reflects the baseline rumblings of a brainwide dynamical system initialized for learning? We find that the rumblings have macroscopic properties like those emerging from linear symmetric, critical systems 🧵 #neuroscience #neuroAI www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It's almost #FluorescenceFriday! Here is a ~E9.5 mouse neural tube section showing the signaling protein Sonic Hedgehog (SHH,green) and the SHH-specified floor plate (marked by FoxA2, magenta). We are interested in how SHH travels from signal-producing to signal-receiving cells. 🔬 Miriam Dillard 🧪 👩‍🔬

A previous study in @plosbiology.org found that Wnt receptors are housed in early endosomes and required for dendritic #microtubule nucleation. This Update Article shows that microtubule dynamics in #dendrites can be influenced non-autonomously by surrounding epithelial cells 🧪 plos.io/3DK0M0J

bHLH genes have diverse roles during the development of the nervous system; this functional study of five #Celegans bHLH genes shows that some of them can regulate #neuropeptide secretion & significantly expand lifespan when mutated 🧪 @plosbiology.org plos.io/3W7OQMs

After years of #programming (Python & R) on Windows and remote Linux servers, I’ve moved completely to #Linux/#Ubuntu on my laptop. The difference in efficiency, speed, and lightweight performance is remarkable. Highly recommend Linux for coding and development! 🤝🏼👌🏽 @ubuntu-ls.bsky.social

If you disappeared from social media today, who would notice? Who would miss you? The truth is, most of us would be forgotten faster than we think. Likes and follows are fleeting, but real impact lasts. Are you building something worth remembering, or just feeding the algorithm?
