#StemCellTherapy for #Stroke should be timed to a biomarker-defined “window of receptivity”, not just the thrombolysis clock

This historic picture of Jupiter’s southern half always stops me in my tracks.

Voyager 2 grabbed it on 25 June 1979 when it was already down to 12 million kilometres and still closing fast.

From Jupiter it went on to Saturn (1981), Uranus (1986), Neptune (1989).

On 5 Nov. 2018 it slipped out of the Sun’s domain into true interstellar space.

Right now, Nov. 2025, it’s some 141.49 AU away — 21.17 billion km — the farthest thing humans have ever sent, and it’s still talking to us.

So happy to announce our new preprint, “A geothermal amoeba sets a new upper temperature limit for eukaryotes.” We cultured a novel amoeba from Lassen Volcanic NP (CA, USA) that divides at 63°C (145°F) 🔥 - a new record for euk growth!

Super proud to be part of SFB1348 — and excited to share that I now officially have my own lab in Münster! 🎉🪰

We’ll study #cellbio & #morphogenesis, focusing on organ sculpting and #chirality in #Drosophila.

I’ll soon hire my first #PhD student — feel free to reach out!

🫁 The lungs are rarely the full story.

In rare diseases, the lungs often reveal what’s happening across the entire body, from molecular disruption to systemic complications.

Entire creation of new data that has no bearing upon any histological relevance. Remember LLM models are not open and we have no understanding of what NeuN, GFAP, or DAPI means in biological space within the LLM.

This is nonsense. But it looks at first blush as "real" to the uninformed.

Scary.

24 November 1859: 'On the Origin of Species', Charles Darwin's groundbreaking book, was published.

Darwin's magnum opus is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology and is undoubtedly one among the most important books in the history of science.
