Our latest paper is out in its final form in @theplantcell.bsky.social We show that in plants the same DNA sequence can act as an insulator or silencer depending on the surrounding regulatory context. Read the full paper at: doi.org/10.1093/plce...

Important thread! Do pay attention to what is happening at STEM institutes that are not NIH. Their budgets are smaller and their work can be more challenging to defend, but their destruction will be everyone’s demise. 🧪 #academicsky

Book burning? If everything was digital in Hitler's 1930s Germany, this is what his book burning would have looked like: deletion of data, removal of websites, retraction of scientific studies, censorship of words like "equity," "diversity," "climate change."

Vor dem Hintergrund der bestürzenden politischen Ereignisse dieser Woche lasse ich dieses Zitat nochmal hier. Inzwischen sollte uns allen klar sein: Unsere Demokratie ist unmittelbar bedroht. Liebe Wissenschaftler_innen: Zeigt Haltung für diese Demokratie. Betont ihre Relevanz. Ruft zum Wählen auf!
„Wir haben das Privileg, dass uns Leute zuhören, wenn wir öffentlich sprechen.
Ich halte es für sehr wichtig, dieses Privileg zu nutzen."

Do you know Daisy Roulland-Dussoix? She is one of the discoverers of restriction enzymes, who’s findings paved the way for the development of recombinant DNA and cloning technologies. Accordingly, the finding was rewarded with a #NobelPrize. But the prize didn’t go to her. 🧵👇
