1. Early in development, the presence of a Y chromosome triggers development of the testes, which then secrete testosterone, which then shunts fetal development to a male phenotype. But I was curious: beyond gonads & hormones, do XX and XY contribute to sex differences? 🧵

22 years ago we took 22 cricketers, 2 umpires and some press to the top of Langjökull glacier to play a match. We had a great game and safely brought 17 cricketers home.

holy shit AI can now decode the human proteome without any reference genome. a new paper published today presents a new model that can read raw mass spec and generate novel peptide sequences from scratch. no database or priors. just biology. 1/

HOLY SHIT IT'S HAPPENING AI can now write genomes from scratch. Arc Institute an NVIDIA just published Evo-2, the largest AI model for biology, trained on 9.3 trillion DNA base pairs spanning the entire tree of life. it doesn’t just analyze genomes. it creates them 1/

New paper from Steph Blain! If you’re interested in our new approach to meta-analyses with more than two groups (e.g., ecotypes), it’s definitely worth a read. Plus, discover ecological drivers influencing post-glacial lake divergence! https://t.co/nsMHcIrVdA

OK, let me solve American "economic anxiety" very quickly. I'm gonna sort it out for you in less than ten tweets and then you won't have that excuse anymore. You ready? Here goes. The cause is capitalism and greed. That's it. Nothing else. Just that.
