1/5 📢 Exciting news! My new book "Arbi the Model Plant" is now available in English, with Hebrew, Arabic, German, and Spanish versions to follow! 🌱📚

It's finally out in PLOS Pathogens ! journals.plos.org/plospathogens/… Our paper shows that induction of Apoptosis by double-stranded RNA is an ancestral feature in most animal lineages! For detailed 🧵 see below.

Our academic editor Yehu Moran is attending #Evol2024 in Montreal from 26-30 July. If you’re attending, please join him July 27th from 12:45-13:45 as he introduces our journals’ portfolio expansion in #ecology and #evolution.

Thrilled to see this preprint out! Excellent work on the role of ROS in metazoan regeneration by @AuroreVullien, a joint PhD student with StemDevEvo, and everybody involved. Check the comments /bioRxiv for more infos #ROS #Regeneration #Nematostella #Platynereis

מדע זה עסק רציני, אבל כבר הרבה שנים שממנים בישראל 🤡 לתפקיד שר המדע שלא עושים שום דבר מועיל במסגרת התפקיד שלהם (ולפעמים גם עושים דברים מזיקים) 🤦‍♂️

#OnThisDay in 1858, a seminal journal article comprised of papers by Alfred Russel Wallace FRS and Charles Darwin FRS on the theory of evolution by natural selection was published by the The Linnean Society of London, the first public announcement of the theory. bit.ly/3k8fq4u

What if you could deliver molecular tools directly into oocytes without microinjection? In our new paper, online today Development (doi.org/10.1242/dev.20…), we introduce VitelloTag, a new cargo delivery tool to enable injection-free genome editing. 👇Read on for a short 🧵

Congratulations to the Chatzigeorgiou lab for a new paper just out in PLOS Biology 🤩👏 Authors Zonglai Liang and Daniel Dondorp characterized the role of an Anoctamine protein in notochord development in #Ciona. Take a peek behind the scenes! ⤵️ Universitetet i Bergen tinyurl.com/2k7v74db

How repeatable is #hybridization? Study of #Swordtail #fish by Quinn Langdon &co reveals high repeatability due to strong selection in the earliest generations after hyb; deeper evo divergence results in stronger selection & repeatability #PLOSBiology plos.io/4fZ07XQ

Out in Cell Host & Microbe: Conservation of antiviral systems across domains of life reveals immune genes in humans. Using phylogenomics, we traced antiphage systems in eukaryotes, predicted human homologs and validated their immune function in human cells! cell.com/cell-host-micr…

After 12 years, I can openly tell this story: when I interviewed in 2012 in Itai's former institute the dean told me that they like my work but they won't recruit me cause I published in Cell Reports and not in a "real" Cell. I can say that I was lucky that they didn't take me 😘

בקיצור הבוס החדש של ביבי אוסר עליו אפילו לערוך משא ומתן ומתגאה בזה שהוא מחזיק את ביבי בבי*ים. זה לא שהזנב מכשכש בכלב, זה שהפרעוש מכשכש בכלב. הוא התקדם מלגנוב את סמל המכונית של ראש ממשלה ללנהל ראש ממשלה. 🤦‍♂️
