Thanks for sharing my story!

I once heard a writer say that they write compulsively, as if the words they need to say are creative demons waiting to be exorcised. Nothing else has rung truer.

Big thank you to @liuswrites for this wonderful piece about our study!

We found that gut bacteria can escape to the brain via the vagus nerve in settings of high-fat diet or in models of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and autism.

@JulianUnlocked @ScienceNews I didn’t know that snakes could last months (and crocodiles over a year) without food 🤦‍♀️

[Andrea Lius-Neoberdin @liuswrites]

@JulianUnlocked @ScienceNews Totally, I didn’t know much about reptile metabolism until I wrote this story. It was a fun one!

[Andrea Lius-Neoberdin @liuswrites]

@JulianUnlocked @ScienceNews Hey Julian, thanks for the note! I’m the author of this story. The genetic changes are the loss of ghrelin and the enzyme that activates it. I’d recommend reading the full story to learn what scientists think these mean for snakes! :)

[Science News @ScienceNews]

Snakes would do great on Survivor. These animals can last weeks — even months — without food. A couple of recently discovered genetic changes may help.

40 Percent of Stroke Animal Studies May Have Problematic Images
Red flags during a literature review led to the discovery of over 200 papers on animal models of stroke with duplicated images, which is likely an underestimate.

Our @ucdavisvetmed oncologists along w/ @UCSF scientists have completed a clinical trial in #cats with oral cancer. A new drug they tested not only helped cats, it could help humans too. Great story via The Scientist https://t.co/dID0b4wF2z

@dishsoapquart but don’t all pieces start in the notes app?

In Yellowstone National Park, a bear once allegedly polished off a few beers, among other items, from a pickup truck. "Did it get drunk?" was my first thought. If you, like me, have burning questions about inebriated animals, check out this fun story:
