As part of @biologists.bsky.social 100-year anniversary, it has been fun to look at the older journal content. For this post, I went all the way back to 1853 to look at early efforts at segmentation, wise words on peer review and the benefits of sharing tips and tricks rather than whole stories.

“Lab Girl” being censored is baffling. I’ve read this wonderful work; nothing offensive in it whatsoever — unless showing that women can be scientists is no longer “appropriate content” for children?? Everyone go buy a copy in protest. My 2016 review in Nature👇 www.nature.com/articles/532...

Yean Ming Chew and I wrote doi.org/10.1042/BST2... about MT lattice switching. We discuss evidence that protofilament-level structural switching is ancient and fundamental and conserved; and that tubulation creates new allosteric interfaces that operate on essentially the same structural switch.

'For example, whereas more than 13,000 research articles have been published on TP53, half of human genes are barely mentioned in the literature (Fig. 1). It is estimated that 75% of all research on protein-coding genes has been focused on fewer than 10% of proteins' www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Being critical is not the opposite of being optimistic. Its the opposite of not being critical. Optimism is a feeling, critical thinking is a process. A process that lets you see through the BS. Including the BS created by your feelings.
