..and by the way the LncRNA under '2600014E21RIK' are two and were published in 2013 as 'Hotdog' (Hog) and 'Twin of Hotdog' (Tog) by Delpretti et al., but not yet noticed by the supreme annotation committees in charge of cleaning, administering and controlling genomes 🤓

This is a nice and certainly powerful approach, provided the annotations are correct. Evx2 is not there and is also covered by H3K27me3 marks. The gene shown is Mtx2 🙄. Very different genes indeed. Doesn't change much, but let's be precise 🥸

Sometimes you see things sooo wrong that you can only but hope it is AI-derived (T-DOM at the telomere, of course..and C-DOM...😖). For once, it is fortunate that the authors do not (could not) refer to the original work 😃 #Epigenetics, it is claimed.

They mentioned August Pyramus De Candolle and his 'eloquent' passage saying: 'Nature is at war'... But please note that they do not talk about 'Natural selection' (at this stage) but 'By Natural means of selection'.. 🤓

Pierre Chambon was a great scientist. And a good man too. He alone opposed to leading British embryologists during the evaluation of a case of scientific misconduct more than 40 years ago, to defend young scientists against an establishment to which he belonged. An unforgettable lesson. RIP Pierre 💐

Scientific misconduct is not merely manipulating figures in a publication, getting caught and retracting papers. It has many other facets, some of which still being subjects to different perceptions by the scientists themselves, while they should not. Two classical examples:
