Fil très important sur la confiance en la science et les chercheurs. En une ligne : la confiance reste bonne à travers les pays, mais de moins en moins de gens ont une confiance totale en les chercheurs-ses. Les scientifiques perdent en fait en influence.

#DBfeature Elongation of the nascent avian foregut requires coordination of intrinsic and extrinsic cell behaviors By Olivia Powell, Emily Garcia, Vanshika Sriram, Yi Qu, Nandan L. Nerurkar tinyurl.com/52pecyc5
Endodermal tissue deformations at the AIP during foregut elongation. (A) Velocity fields quantified from time lapse of cell movements between HH stages 8+ and 10+. Orientation and magnitude of arrows indicate orientation and speed of cell movements, respectively; underlying heat map indicates speed (n = 3); scale = 200 μm. (B) Principal strain rates computed from velocity fields in (A), where major and minor cruciform axes represent maximum and minimum principal strain rates D1 and D2, respectively, and their orientations represent the associated principal directions. Negative/compressive principal strain rates are indicated in blue, and positive/extensional strain rates are indicated in red; strain rate scale = 0.01 %/s; spatial scale is as in (A). (C) Maximum and minimum principal strain rates calculated from velocity fields at HH stage 8, following electroporation with 3 nls-GFP RNA control (left) and DeAct-GFP RNA (right) (n = 3);
