“We can now say, unequivocally, that RNA is critical in this process of cell differentiation.” Congrats to @YichengLong & Taeyoung Hwang on this great Cech Lab & @Noncodarnia Lab collaboration! https://t.co/gufO6P23EF

If each human cell has the same blueprint, or set of genes, why does an eye cell look and act differently than a brain cell or skin cell? New research moves

Congrats to @Ben_Mcglenn et al on their recent work published in @BioMaterSci! We used viscoelastic hydrogels to temporally modulate the transmission of compressive strains to encapsulated cartilage cells. Great collab with @TheBryantLab @BioFrontiers!

Allyl sulfide photodegradable hydrogels support the formation of epithelial colonies from encapsulated single intestinal stem cells, maintaining their potential to proliferate and differentiate....
I'm very excited to use my first tweet to announce that my first paper has been published! We use photodegradable hydrogels for the culture and repetitive passaging of #intestinalorganoids! Thanks to @EllaAHushka @AnsethGroup @TheLutolfLab and Tobin https://t.co/MW28DXnleJ

We were extremely fortunate to witness the "snappy syncs" fireflies! Thank you @Douglas_Main, @MacStonePhoto & @NatGeo for the beautiful pictures and story ❤️🙏 #FireflyFriday
These fireflies are known "snappy syncs"—one of the stranger and better common names I've heard of—due to their quick, synchronized lights. Researchers took advantage of a partially-closed park to study them in the dark. Lovely photos by @MacStonePhoto

Also, if you enjoy these slides, most originated from a workshop series with @DanLarremore + @aaronclauset's labs at @CUBoulder. See Dan's page for decks on giving talks, writing clean code, and reviewing papers:
