Was great fun to contribute a little brick to this monumental work! Tahnee used behavioural pharmacology approaches developed in our own ZOLTAR 🔮 work to predict what’s wrong with her mutant. Check out our work elifesciences.org/articles/96839 & the ZOLTAR app francoiskroll.shinyapps.io/zoltar/

Behavioural pharmacology predicts disrupted signalling pathways and candidate therapeutics from zebrafish mutants of Alzheimer’s disease risk genes
Predictive pharmacology based on behavioural fingerprinting can identify druggable pathways that are altered or renormalized in zebrafish larvae that harbor mutations in early and late-onset Alzheimer...

In a short story, one my favourite authors Julio Cortázar imagined the world collapsing under viscous paper goo from the all the books & papers we churn out. Not far from today’s academia… Words and words read by absolutely no one, not even the authors. telegrafi.com/en/the-end-o...

40 years ago all of Genbank was published in print form by NAR. The same format today would require over 4 light seconds of shelf space. To a year of progress in 2025.

Hilarious (or profoundly depressing), Descartes was already frustrated with Elsevier in 1636! So it's been almost 400 years... "I came to this city to find a publisher, but the Elzevier, who first said they really wanted to publish my book, are playing hard to get, so I decided to do without them"
