Did you ever wonder how the leopard got its spots? Or how the zebra got its stripes? Wonder no more! In this #Short, @benswedlund.bsky.social talks about his #preprint describing reaction-diffusion architecture for engineering self-organised patterns in mammalian cells. 🎙️⬇️ youtu.be/_HMbr4KE1PI?...

In a short time, we’ll have fake AI scientists fabricating fake AI results reviewed by fake AI reviewers. This data will then be text-mined by AI and ultimately delivered to mindless AI consumers.

I love to see the endoplasmic reticulum (ER, cyan) hitchhiking over microtubules (MTs, orange). Also the membrane dynamics are lovely. It's been a while, but here we are for a late #fluorescencefriday with some #microscopy #scicomm #scisky @cellcommlab.bsky.social focalplane.bsky.social 🧪🔬

Not all colormaps are created equal. Notice the nonlinear brightness scaling in two very popular ImageJ LUTs! (Glow & GFB)

Writing, making mistakes during writing and correcting those mistakes (through feedback, labmeetings, and personal interaction) is fundamental to achieving not only "good quality" science, but also for getting to know yourself as a scientist. Writing reflects your inner thoughts.
