Dimensionality reduction can "see" structures that do not exist & miss structures that exist. Use it sparingly and evaluate conclusions in the high dimensional data. nature.com/articles/s4159…

I’m happy to announce that I’ve been nominated for Best student presentation for the Division of Evo-Devo (SICB_DEDB) for the incoming SICB meeting in Atlanta. Looking forward to showing you my progress in understanding how a segmented worm makes its nerve cord 🪱 next year.

In Genetics class this week we explored the history of our field & its roots in Eugenics. I used it to frame the question: Should scientists just “Stay in the lab” or is it our duty to speak out when others lie about our science & use it to further their own political views? 1/n

A marine nudibranch, sometimes called a sea slug, is stained with an antibody to illuminate its cells' microtubules. Postdoc Luiza de Oliveira Saad studies this species' impressive ability to regenerate tissue. Credit to Luiza de Oliveira Saad. #WhiteheadWonders

Animal Stem cells probably appeared 700-800 million years ago. We found that two key molecules that make our stem cells the way they are even older than that as they even existed before the evolution of animals. 1/n

Diseñadora Anis Samanez, se indignó porque una comunidad indígena shipiba no le quiso ‘compartir gratis’ sus saberes y técnicas para hacer moda. Frente a eso, ¿Qué herramientas existen para reconocer y proteger el arte indígena en mercados globales? 🧵1/

Our bryozoan paper, led by @Tom_Lewin and Isabel Jiah-Yih Liao 🐸, is now out in Genome Research! We uncover extensive genome shuffling across the phylum and evidence supporting the Lophophorata hypothesis. Thanks to Darwin Tree of Life for openly sharing the assemblies! doi.org/10.1101/gr.279…

New in Science Advances Curantz camille et al. find that part of the #Hydractinia gonad acts a sexual organizer; it induces germ fate in pluripotent i-cells. Germ cells secrete the TGF-beta Gonadless to induce and maintain the gonad science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Very happy to announce that I was a runner-up for this competition. Also glad to show our community how important it is to address phylogenetic bias when tackling broad evolutionary questions. Stay tuned for future publications about our findings on Capitella teleta!

I have no words. My sister lost her house to the SoCal fire, leaving her family of four with a handful of suitcases and no home. If you are feeling particularly generous, please consider this gofundme gofund.me/3752eb40
