Real science is slow, uncertain, and humbling. It thrives on doubt, failure, revision, and debate.
Universities, funders, and journals want the opposite: speed, certainty, confidence, and narrative.
So we get bad models, fake breakthroughs, and flashy press releases. And everyone pretends it’s progress.
Online now! @FCWEI2 et al. show that supplementing folic acid during methionine restriction in flies mitigates the decline in fertility while retaining the intervention’s life-extending benefits. @LocasaleLab (https://t.co/uRSF0zn041)

Our study now published @NatureAging - we show that the tradeoff between lifespan extension and reduced reproduction can be uncoupled by modifying die. We considered methionine restriction as example. Congrats @FCWEI2 and everyone else who helped 🎉.

Our latest preprint led by @FCWEI2 - organismal lifespan extension is shown to be separable from reproduction limitations in the context of dietary methionine. We further investigate the underlying metabolism of the phenomenon.

This month’s imaginative @Cancer_Cell cover:
The Monkey King (NK cells) recognizes & tries to kill the White Bone Demon (CTCs), who is disguised as a girl. However, the White Bone Demon pretends to be innocent & convinces Tripitaka (platelets) & Pigsy (HLA-E) to protect it.
We will not see the real data in this #TRE paper. Because #NEJM allowed the authors not share any data. Terrible data sharing policy at #NEJM.

NEW ISSUE!: Featuring work from Vila et al. discovering that STING regulates polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) metabolism, and in turn, PUFAs inhibit STING-dependent inflammation.
