Summary: A new method for capturing long-distance axon-regenerating RGCs for single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis reveals that adult neuronal subtypes that retain features of the embryonic cell state dedifferentiate in response to a treatment.

Shhhh. Be very quiet. I’m hunting rabbits. What? No, that isn’t right. Sorry, I was dreaming that I was Elmer Fudd (if you don’t know who Elmer Fudd is, he is the nemesis of Bugs Bunny, and famously co-starred in What’s Opera, Doc? – widely considered to be one of the greatest comedic feats of animation ever created. Written and animated by the great Chuck Jones. Who also created the Road Runner…

Mashup Score: 2Transplanted human intestinal organoids: A resource for modeling human intestinal development - 1 year(s) ago
The in vitro differentiation of pluripotent stem cells into human intestinal organoids (HIOs) has served as a powerful means for creating complex three-dimensional intestinal structures. Due to their diverse cell populations, transplantation into an animal host is supported with this system and allows for the temporal formation of fully laminated structures, including crypt-villus architecture…

Well, that was tragic. I just left a seminar I was very much looking forward to (“to which I was very much looking forward” – thank you Ms. Rosenberg, my sixth-grade grammar teacher). Terrific scientist, exciting findings, and somehow, I almost fell asleep in my sushi. (Yes, moles eat sushi, even without insects). There were only a couple of rather forced questions, one from the moderator, and…

Mashup Score: 0importance of stupidity in scientific research - 1 year(s) ago
I recently saw an old friend for the first time in many years. We had been Ph.D. students at the same time, both studying science, although in different areas. She later dropped out of graduate school, went to Harvard Law School and is now a senior lawyer for a major environmental organization. At some point, the conversation turned to why she had left graduate school. To my utter astonishment,…
