💡What can voles teach us about friendship? @UCBerkeley study found that voles lacking oxytocin receptors are slower to form bonds. This #research sheds light on the neurobiology of social bonds, which could inform studies on human psychiatric conditions. bit.ly/3UrPPGi

Voles lacking oxytocin receptors don't like to make new friends, and show *decreased* oxytocin release, defying the pattern of other hormones by showing positive feedback! Read more here: tinyurl.com/546zbawr and: tinyurl.com/j4e22b2h

Simple addition of an anionic polymer to standard PEG transfection workflows increases RNP-based protoplast editing by 10 to 20-fold! Inspired by @MarsonLab's beautiful prior work. Check out our new preprint for details: tinyurl.com/3anwved2

29% (!!!) of papers published in top bio journals (incl some of our own prior work😓) contain data distortion in figures that mis-represent research findings! We welcome feedback on our preprint & recommendations to avoid these errors moving forward: t.ly/rvUkg
