1/12 I can’t let this go. Last week “All Things Considered” aired a segment on the structure of DNA that named only Watson and Crick. When people squawked they issued a “correction” (https://t.co/rxzmZQh2rh ).

December Issue 'The Celluloid Specimen' exposed! 36 animated celluloid films - #cinema #archive #footage - that have evolved since their first exposure. Animal life, landscapes frozen in time, subliminal images wearing visible marks, recorded experiments

@SocDevBio named its virtual postdoctoral seminar series in Ethel Browne Harvey's honor: https://t.co/dJSObkbQLC.

[Beatrice Steinert @b_steinert]

This is just the beginning! There's so much more to say about Harvey.

[Beatrice Steinert @b_steinert]

Beth Ribeiro, @AdvikBeni, and I made a short! Featuring my favorite instrument, the camera lucida, and the developmental biologist Ethel Browne Harvey. Also the politics of archives, microscopes, and sea urchins.

Several years ago some of her research films showed up
@MBLWHOILibrary and I found some letters
@SznDohrn. That has been it so far. We wanted to visually recreate archives that should exist for someone whose work is so foundational to how we think about animal biology today.

[Beatrice Steinert @b_steinert]

@rrbehringer first told me about Harvey and her pioneering experimental work when I was an undergrad poking around the @MBLScience Embryology course. I've been on the hunt for archival materials of hers ever since.

[Devang Mehta 🌱👨🏽‍🔬🧬 @drdevangm]

Don't understand how institutes that don't have a single lab studying plants can claim they study "all areas of biology". I mean "all areas of biology except 80% of the biomass of the planet" is more accurate, no?

[Beatrice Steinert @b_steinert]

Very excited to have been selected for
@imaginescience and @ScienceSandbox's Symbiosis program this year. I'll be paired with a filmmaker and we'll have a week to produce a short. #sciencenewwave

[Science New Wave @sciencenewwave]

Meet the Symbiosis Competition 2022 participants presented by @ScienceSandbox which kicks off on October 14th-21 when scientists and filmmakers create a science-inspired short film during the #sciencenewwave 15th Annual Imagine Science Film Festival. @labocine

[Beatrice Steinert @b_steinert]

Come explore how cells build multicellular organisms!

[Cassandra Extavour @redmakeda]

Are you a biophysicist/microscopist tired of all this gene talk? Want to get down to business probing mechanical properties of cells & tissues? Ready to use an evolutionary framework to predict and engineer tissues with specific mechanical properties? This project is for you! 5/6

1200 hand-drawn illustrations of insect eggs, from several hundred different sources in the descriptive entomological literature

[Beatrice Steinert @b_steinert]

@biyolokum Congrats!!!

[Edouard Hannezo @EdouardHannezo]

Excited to see this out today from @petridou_ni and Bernat Corominas-Murtra @HeisenbergCPLab . Rigidity percolation as a structural basis for a phase transition in material properties - at the onset of zebrafish morphogenesis! https://t.co/bChQHdD8ls See below for a thread! 1/n

[Beatrice Steinert @b_steinert]

I am so ready for future virtual conferences with talks like this. From @ManuelTHERY and #CytoMorphoLab #cellbio2020 https://t.co/UXaUz2k48T

[A. Sánchez Alvarado @Planaria1]

Fall and its gorgeous genetics is here: jumping genes in the cells that make the kernels in corn cobs cause these beautiful changes in coloration

Barbara McClintock figured this out & received the Nobel prize in 1983 for her discovery & gift to our better understanding of life

[Cassandra Extavour @redmakeda]

and to @vcallier and @BostonGlobe for highlighting the parallels and benefits of bringing unusual things together in both science and music https://t.co/HFBTuh2RA4 5/15

After 10 years of work, it's a great joy to announce the publication of our work in Science. Amazing tour de force by @GuignardLab, Ulla-Majand all coauthors. 1/12

Whew... Dr. Scott Gilbert bringing serious history of racism and sexism in the @___SDB___ special symposium. I’m enraged at the philosophers and leaders of the past. They were basically garbage. Racism is a historical, systemic, societal problem. From the beginning. #2020SDB

[Beatrice Steinert @b_steinert]

Beautiful. It's so exciting to see work directly connecting cell geometry to communication. Can't wait to dive into this paper.

[Guignard Lab @GuignardLab]

Very excited to present our work on ascidian embryogenesis and cell communication.
Great collaboration between biologist, computer scientists and physicists; Ulla-Maj Fiúza, Grégoire Malandain, Christophe Godin and @PatrickLemaire_!

@LevayerR Agreed!
