Ever wonder what transgenerational epigenetic inheritance (TEI) is good for? (Yes, what’s the #PhysiologicalRelevance?) We showed earlier that worms can learn to avoid pathogens, and use TEI to pass on this memory for a few generations. In our new paper.... https://t.co/oU9P6kBFCq

🚨MAJOR EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Greg Casar just called for a MASSIVE corruption probe into what he calls a “really serious allegation” - that Trump and Musk ran a tariff scam where countries dodged tariffs by signing contracts with Musk’s companies. This is explosive.

any anti-homeless or looting propaganda u see over the next few days is an attempt by the ppl systemically responsible for these fires to absolve themselves of blame, change nothing, and get more money for their police state. it’s bs and won’t stop this from happening again

Male-female comparisons are powerful in biomedical research. Unraveling and harnessing mechanistic etiologies of sex differences may reveal new diagnostics and therapeutics for the aging brain. More from us in the latest @NeuroCellPress issue on aging. @BBParis1984 @ctmurphy1

Trump has no plan to fix any of America’s problems. Not one single policy. It’s wild. People just assume because he’s loud & white that he has the answer, even though he cannot articulate a coherent strategy
