The House just passed the Iran War Powers Resolution 215 to 208. We should have done it 2 months ago when @RepThomasMassie and I proposed it. But now we are finally closer to bringing this disastrous war to an end.

AMERICANS ROMANTICIZE ITALY TOO MUCH …. 🇮🇹🍕

[Arjun Raj @arjunrajlab]

Can someone start a journal called “Cell Atlases” so that the rest of the journals can go back to publishing interesting things?

I thought we lived in a democracy (one so good that we had to spread it with bombs all over the rest of the world)! https://t.co/4Unj6T8hOf

@SatchinPanda How was the study deconfounded?

Are we f#@!Ed already?!?

Excited to share our paper published today in @NatureNeuro: https://t.co/Ehr9zkTwwV
Using spatial proteomics, we identified a plaque-associated microglial population that emerged only when morphology and spatial context were integrated with protein expression.

@ScienceKyle As an Alzheimer's disease researcher I am very interested in DAM/LAM TREM2-dependent microglia polarization and stimulating phagocytic clearance of apoptotic cells and other lipid-rich cellular debris (efferocytosis).

Keep up the great work! :)

[Edoardo Marcora @marcora]

What about efferocytic state and DAM?

🚨What if we could reliably program macrophage polarization state?🚨

https://t.co/6qGxuHptQq

Macrophages are highly plastic immune cells that perform critical functions by polarizing into distinct cellular states. The polarization state of macrophages can substantially influences the progression of cancers, infections, and autoimmunity. (1/11)

AOC will not team up with MTG to sanction Israel because of identity politics

But she teamed up with Ted Cruz and Tom Cotton to call for more sanctions on China

@sciqst Validated predictions/calibration would be good to see!

[Dave Smith @ComicDaveSmith]

It’s truly unbelievable that the State Department put this clip out.

So, Iran can’t be allowed to have a nuke (which they don’t) or they would be able to close the strait (which they already did) because we wouldn’t be able to stop them (which we currently can’t).

[Edoardo Marcora @marcora]

@MicrobiomDigest Institutional incentives need to be re-aligned to reward what makes what we do SCIENCE... independent replication of research findings! Or else yes, we are so f*cked!

Italian efficiency when it comes to coffee should be studied.

In Italy:
- Walk into a bar and look at the guy
- Un caffe
- 30 seconds later it’s ready
- Shoot it
- Leave €1
- Walk out

In the US:
- Join a line
- Wait
- Order coffee
- Answer 12 questions: Size? Milk? Roast? Sugar? Temperature? Colombia beans? Name? How do you spell it?
- $12.34
- Ask for a 20% tip. Click 5 times on a ipad to have a custom tip
- Tap phone
- ask where to send the invoice
- Wait again on a different line
- Someone call a name that sounds similar to mine
- get the coffee
- too hot, can't drink it
- finally at temperature

taste like shit

I'd say Paperpile if you are using Google Docs... otherwise @typstapp or @OpenAI Prism and the good ol' BiBTeX
