If you haven’t read @ShellyFan’s ā€œWill AI Replace Us?ā€, it’s well worth the read for the latest insights on AI applications and thinking @thamesandhudson

If some can bottle up the scent of an old book (or a second hand bookstore), I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

Academic Twitter! Is it bad to say ā€œunder the editor’s adviceā€ when replying to a reviewer, because the two don’t agree?

Thank you @ShellyFan for the clearest (read, picturesque) explanation of our work @liugroup @davidrliu. While reading, I thought, "Wow, even my grandparents will understand my work! Finally!" Well someone will 1st have to translate this into Nepali.šŸ˜„ šŸ™šŸ™ singularityhub.com/2022/01/1…

Science folks! Some help with jargon-y grammar? Is it [pick your fav post-translational mod] on [residue] or [PTM] at [residue]? I've always used "at" but apparently people use "on" as well? "Phosphorylation on S###" just sounds wrong to me. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

If you believe #healthequity is essential to advancing the #science we need to overcome #Alzheimers disease and other forms of #dementia, please urge Congress to pass the #ENACTAct. #ENDALZ #AAIC21 #StrongerTogether #ScienceMatters #JusticeMatters
Alzheimer’s & other dementia disproportionately affect older Black and Hispanic Americans. Yet too often the clinical trial staff and participants don’t reflect the U.S. population. The #ENACTAct will address these shortcomings. Show your support: p2a.co/xuOMRgm. #ENDALZ

New CRISPR tool flips genes on and off like a light switch. Really interesting article from @ShellyFan on a development that could significantly change genetic editing. @ShellyFan #CRISPR #geneticediting impactlab.com/2021/05/06/a-n…
