In the beginning was the worm, and the worm was elegant. 📖 How does experience become inheritance? Opinions are based on my experience but some are inherited. ahmedelewa.com

Has anyone compared @nebiolabs.bsky.social enzyme activity after shipping with ClimaCell® vs standard Styrofoam® and dry ice?

Welcoming graduate students who want to ask big questions with small worms. We study non-genetic inheritance in C. elegans, asking how parental experiences are encoded in gametes and decoded by offspring. Visit miamioh.edu/cas/graduate... and ahmedelewa.com for more information.

“Students weren’t just annotating - they were thinking critically about what they observed.” In this course, students used WEBKNOSSOS to explore real EM data, segment organelles, analyze cellular asymmetry, and develop biological hypotheses from their own observations. Read more: buff.ly/MckCdVY

Is Gemini inventing new terminology? It started off by suggestion "homozygizing" as a correct spelling, then doubled down when I searched if that word actually exists.

We spoke with @inperience.bsky.social from Miami University about using WEBKNOSSOS in a cell biology course built around real C. elegans vEM data. 48 students annotated cells, generated AI training data, and even contributed to a biological discovery. Read the interview: buff.ly/MckCdVY

I'm looking for a new member to our dream team. We study how experience turns in to inheritance using the nematode C. elegans as a model. This position is ideal for someone with significant research experience and applying for Ph.D. programs. tinyurl.com/2xdu4w9v

When learning a new language I benefit from newspapers and radio stations that offer a “lite” version of the same content as the usual outlets. Is there something similar for scientific articles? Could be useful for undergraduate courses.

In general, academics should allocate a portion of their intelligence and time to understanding how the market works and graduate schools should augment training accordingly. Academia shouldn’t be an academic’s sole source of income. That was the a lesson unemployment taught me.

I came across this rejection letter from 1989 when sorting my dad’s belongings. Somehow this utterly trivializes editorial rejections when weighed against the full life he lived and the contributions he made.

Third chick in a week. First two were sparrows but this one is a pigeon. They fall to the street and die from the heat. I harvest some developing feathers for “Developmental Biology a la Søren Kierkegaard” and then lay them to rest.

Santella et al. (Bao lab) had published a nice C. elegans TEM dataset. elifesciences.org/articles/77918 Can someone help me identify the organelle in the crosshairs that seems to have a donut around it. There are 3 orthogonal to each other highlighting what looks like a ring around a vesicle.
