A common-sensical critique of the concerns in the push (in India, from funding agencies) that "AI use is inevitable in research"... Ironically it will dull the very advantage the Indian science landscape had despite being underfunded. www.mariecuriealumni.eu/newsletters/...

We are near the deadline for comments on the proposed OMB rule changes governing federal grants. I want to say again I think we need to connect basic/discovery research to national security. And, a way I'm finding makes sense is to highlight Vannevar Bush's original plan as laid out in 1945 1/n

These bright yellow frogs are male Indus Valley Bullfrogs (Hoplobatrachus tigerinus). They turn this color only during the breeding season — outside it, they're a more muted green or brown ... but still always look a little like they've seen something bewildering.

Dear fellow researchers. I think we need to discuss this: www.newscientist.com/article/2532... While peer review is flawed, and while preprints are a great way to share data before publication, as a community we mustn’t trade rigour for hype. This paper was peer reviewed and rejected.

What is 'SpudCell'? Arguably the greatest bioengineering feat yet

A prototype cell partly capable of replicating itself has been created using 36 existing bacterial genes, but it's not really a living organism – yet
