Cities are just police departments with some underfunded services on the side

We’re drowning in videos of police abuse: cops cars running over protestors, an officer shoving a petite woman so hard she had a seizure, cops shooting rubber bullets at reporters on live TV.
It’s clear who is escalating violence.

Our new preprint with @FilipKolar7 and others is out :)!! The degree of #genome-wide gene reuse depends on the level of genetic #divergence between #parallel lineages. Thank you for very nice collaboration @tanjaslotte @Graham_Coop! #evolution #Arabidopsis disq.us/t/3n7csyi

Dear Tweeps, I don't feel like talking about science today.
The situation in my Italy, my home country, is dire.
The hospitals are running out of space to treat patients and the medical devices start being a limiting factor. 1/4

Read Until to enrich >700 genes to mean 30x coverage on @nanopore single flowcell. Custom panels (up to 25,600 targets so far) as easy as providing a coordinate file. Read more at biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… - thanks to @alexomics, @Rorymatics and @DeepSeqNotts team.

Plants can defend themselves from herbivores in a variety of ways but have you ever considered the role of leaf shape in preventing herbivory? A recent experiment from Japan has demonstrated that leaf shape can actually deter a specialist weevil. 🍁🐞

Did you know that the St. Lawrence and Ottawa River were once part of an inland sea some 13,000 years ago? Evidence of this sea can be seen today in a handful of maritime plants that haunt sandy shores of lakes and rivers 😮🌱
