Imagine what would happen if they both cut unnecessary meetings and kept working for 5 days a week?. Biggest trial of four-day work week finds workers are happier and feel just as productive

Nature - Compressing five days of work into four can create stress, but the benefits outweigh the downsides, sprawling study shows.

Ground-breaking as usual from the Mayr lab.
More than 2700 3′UTRs are highly conserved. These 3′UTRs are essential components in mRNA templates, as their deletion decreases protein activity without changing protein abundance. Highly conserved 3′UTRs help the folding of proteins with long IDRs.
