Hay un poco de batiburrillo entre sanciones y aranceles en el artículo. Lo último es algo más novedoso. No tengo muy claro que obedezca a una tendencia histórica irreversible, pero con Trump erro todos mis pronósticos :-)
Interesante pero un poco impreciso, no? Las sanciones y las vallas europeas anteceden con mucho a Trump.

How do dynamics of signalling molecules skew cell fate decisions? With this review we try to move our first steps in the signalling dynamics field, together with the expert lead of @samuzambrano.bsky.social! Kudos to Fulvio, Sara and Erika for their excellent work!
As usual it was a pleasure and lots of fun to collaborate with @davidemazza.bsky.social and his lab in this effort led by Fulvio Bonsignore, Sara Pozzi and Erika Aloi.
We discuss the evidence from the main areas where this connection is being established (immunity, response to DNA damage, growth factors and developmental cues) outlining the common methodologies used and potential future directions of this emerging dynamic point of view on how cells make decisions.

David Baltimore passed away this weekend. A pioneer of molecular virology who won the Nobel prize in medicine & physiology for his discovery of viral reverse transcriptase. This essay he wrote in 2018 reflecting of his 60yr career in science is a great read.

Our @ourworldindata.org we visualise weekly updates of wildfire data from the Global Wildfire Information System.

Spain was having a pretty low/average year until the past few weeks when it went roaring past previous years.

Creo haber visto hace poco a un pariente cercano de la chungunga en un acuario de Lisboa. Nombre mucho mejor que el de nutria, que además evita problemas con los italianos, que a las nutrias las llamen 'lontre' y llaman 'nutrie' a otros bichos menos guapos. Un lío it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myocast...

My new @science.org editorial on the role of scientists in defending democracy is out today. As authoritarianism takes hold in the US, we must fight for the democratic principles that enable a free society and scientists have a key role. I hope you'll join us.

Scientists’ role in defending democracy
The United States’ democratic leadership, commitment to freedom of expression, and investment in the pursuit of knowledge have long enabled its preeminence in science and technology. Yet today we are ...

The goal of a PhD is not to learn some facts or read a few papers or learn a bunch of techniques. The goal of a PhD is to learn independence, problem solving, how to finish things you start, resilience, & gain the ability to adapt & think creatively. Learning these things is hard.
There is something harder than reviewing a manuscript: reviewing a very bad manuscript.

1. Federal funding for research promotes tech, biomedical, and scientific discovery in the US, and provides training for the sci/tech workforce that has brought immeasurable wealth to the US over the past 75 years.

Today's executive order includes a provision that will obliterate both functions.

I’m really pleased to share that our paper is out in Developmental Cell! NGN3 oscillates in the developing pancreas and controls the timing of cell differentiation via an incoherent feed-forward motif. For more details check out the comments below and DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2025.06.004
