On August 1, 1931, Harriet Creighton and Barbara McClintock published the first experimental proof that genes are physically located on chromosomes—a discovery that transformed genetics. 1/3🧵

Remarkable story about how transcriptional repressors and nucleosome remodeling reinforce the function of histone modifications to specify cell fate (germline vs. soma). Have a read!

The best keynote talks make you wish you studied the question the speaker is presenting. In that respect, this amazing talk by Amita Sehgal (UPenn) on how and why flies sleep (which is likely the same reason we do) is just so amazing it’s hard to describe. Mind is truly blown. #Dros26

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE
