๐ŸšจHere you go: What we know & donโ€™t know about monkeypox, & how to think about the current outbreak. One thing: Itโ€™s unique partly because itโ€™s, er, happening amid a pandemic. Our reactions are deeply influenced by the last 3 yearsโ€”in good & bad ways. 1/ theatlantic.com/health/archiveโ€ฆ

Congratulations to Federico Claudi, Dario Campagner, and Tiago Branco on their work exploring the innate heuristics and rapid learning that support escape route selection in mice, published today! Read the news: sainsburywellcome.org/web/research-nโ€ฆ

The exciting reveal of Ultima Genomics last week was accompanied by the publication of four preprints. Intrigued by the potential of the technology, sina & I decided to take a look at the data. A ๐Ÿงต about our findings & a preprint we posted: biorxiv.org/content/10.110โ€ฆ 1/

Why does one feel sick when fighting an infection? It's not only because of pathogens, or immunity fighting pathogens, its because of the brain! Here we (i.e Jessica Osterhout PhD et al.) discovered hypothalamic neurons that orchestrate sickness symptoms urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=httpsโ€ฆ

Crested mynas, as many other birds, are born altricially, which means young are underdeveloped at the time of birth, therefore fed by parents. When they grow up, they have to learn that food doesn't simply jump into their beaks [๐Ÿ“ฝ๏ธ: Rebecca Gelernter]

Today I learned you can write numbers like this in Python (!!) Makes it easier to read long numbers by separating digits into groups, just like 1,000,000. Itโ€™s so esoteric that Google Colab doesnโ€™t even color it correctly!

Where did the pandemic begin? Was it from nature or a lab? Since the start, this fundamental question has gone unanswered. Until now. Out in Science Magazine: SARS-CoV-2 emerged into humans via the live animal trade at the Huanan Seafood Market. science.org/doi/10.1126/scโ€ฆ

MILK TIME ๐Ÿฅ›! Have you ever considered that itโ€™s a bit weird that you drink the milk of another animal, and itโ€™s totally normal? Milk is a billion-dollar industry. A *HUGE* new human evolution paper just dropped, upending one of the great modern evolutionary ideas. ๐Ÿงต 1/n

Diffusion models like #DALLE and #StableDiffusion are state of the art for image generation, yet our understanding of them is in its infancy. This thread introduces the basics of how diffusion models work, how we understand them, and why I think this understanding is broken.๐Ÿงต

1) Boston University researches have made a SARS-CoV-2 virus that has the spike of Omicron BA.1 and the remaining genome of the ancestral SARS-CoV-2. Now they got in trouble because this research was funded by the US government (NIH) but they did not ask the NIH...

So Dr Adam Rutherford is receiving a lot of skepticism about his tweet saying that if Cheddar Man has any genealogical ancestors today, he is the common ancestor of all present-day humans. Adam is correct about this โ€” I think this is such a cool finding, so I'll explain it below.
