Totally agree, because the tail doesn't wag the dog despite the correlation between a dog's movement and that of its tail.
I'm not buying this for a second. The bacteria in our colon do not make us depressed, even if this study ( found "significant" correlations

Congratulations to @WeixiangFang, Claire, and the other authors for a phenomenal job and thanks to our editors and reviewers for their diligence and constructive feedback that surprisingly made the peer-review process feel like a partnership (a first for me). (3/3) @jihk99.

In essence, this work describes how still images of genomic barcodes (synthetic or natural) at any point in time can be converted into movies of earlier developmental dynamics. It is applicable to any organism. Free access link: (2/3).

E-life is innovative and effective. They are basically moving the Accept/Reject decision up front, when editors decide upon initial submission. If accepted, it will get peer-reviewed and then published. This makes the peer-review a collaborative process. Far better for science.
Accepting and rejecting papers is an archaic practice that is terrible for science. It strips peer review of its value & institutionalizes the practice of judging scientists based on where, rather than what, they publish. It's time for this system to go.

Great paper from @KasperDHansen's group dissecting the caveats of RNA velocity analysis. Main conclusion for biologists: RNA velocity is likely NOT an extrapolation of future cellular states (and I know no one wants hear that!).
biorxiv.org
RNA velocity analysis of single cells promises to predict temporal dynamics from gene expression. Indeed, in many systems, it has been observed that RNA velocity produces a vector field that qualit...
