Coligação Evoluir Oeiras é a alternativa “aos mandos e desmandos de Isaltino”
Mariana Mortágua e Rui Tavares estiveram em Oeiras com a vereadora Carla Castelo e o seu movimento de cidadãos para apontá-lo como a “inspiração” para as coligações que os dois partidos formaram em muitos concelhos.

Fred Ramsdell was parked at a campground in Montana on Monday when his wife suddenly started shouting. He first thought that maybe she had seen a grizzly bear. Instead, she had regained cell service and had seen a flood of text messages with the same news. “You just won the Nobel Prize!” she yelled.
Winning a Nobel Prize Interrupted His Off-the-Grid Vacation
Fred Ramsdell found out about his Nobel Prize nearly 12 hours after it was announced because he was on vacation in the Rockies.

In Portugal, April remains a promise to be fulfilled. Elsewhere, other Aprils linger in the shadows, waiting to be discovered, savored, and transformed into sources of strength and unity.

I wrote something on developmental biology and disability and put it up on the node last night:

I've been nervous to share because some of it veers a bit personal but they are thoughts that won't stay quiet. Would love to know what people think about it!

Thomas Hunt Morgan was born OTD in 1866.

If you're ever feeling that your work is uending and unedifying, remember that he once said this: "Two years work wasted, I have been breeding those flies for all that time and I've got nothing out of it."

I missed this paper, which might put an end to some misunderstanding about Notch and DLK:
"Here, we show that DLK1 does not bind to Notch receptors or affect ligand-mediated Notch activation, but instead engages the TGF-β superfamily Activin receptor type 2B (ACVR2B)."
www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Molecular mechanism of Activin receptor inhibition by DLK1 - Nature Communications
Current models suggest that DLK1 is an inhibitory ligand in the Notch pathway. Here, the authors show that DLK1 does not interact with Notch receptors, instead blocking Activin signaling via an interaction with Activin receptor type-2B.
