New method allows scientists to connect disease-linked regulatory genetic variants to the genes they control. These variants are more likely to influence disease risk if they alter chromatin accessibility that then changes gene expression.

How did octopuses evolve novel traits? Rishav Mitra, Richard Han, Trey Scott, et al serendipitously discover a unique ribosome adaptation that increases the accuracy of protein synthesis and evolved alongside their elaborate nervous systems vs deep sea relatives. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

As someone that was diagnosed w PCOS almost 20 years ago … I hope this helps improve quality of life for women like me and stimulate wider research into the condition
dear god PLEASE let this also lead to a wider acceptance that treatment needs to include *improving quality of life* and not just "how to make them have baby"

More details on the firing of the National Science Board. The NSF now has no director, deputy director, or board. They have issued almost no new awards in 2026. The plan appears to be to completely destroyed the agency. The details are horrifying and have Russ Vought written all over them.

🦇 Bats live in the countryside, towns and cities across the UK. They are most active in the summer months when they come out of hibernation, hunt insects, give birth and raise their young. You are more likely to see bats around sunset or sunrise in warm, dry weather. www.bats.org.uk/about-bats/w...
