Nice central complex you have in there 😜 – convergent evolution or shared descent? Any gene expression or developmental evidence for or against?
(And did Nick Strausfeld already contacted you? Or Frank Hirth and their MHB gene expression markers?)

"Before 2002, no in-depth information was available on human CoVs (HCoVs) and their zoonotic potential. The emergence of the first highly pathogenic HCoV in 2002, SARS-CoV-1, the subsequent epidemic MERS-CoV, and the pandemic SARS-CoV-2, opened “Pandora’s box” on CoVs." I remember my virology textbook (~1984) had a half-page on coronaviruses. We've come a long way, but not done yet.
Very interesting review from animal pathology perspective. #virology #coronaviruses

"We propose a solution inspired by biological neuron dynamics that makes the communication between RNN units sparse and discrete." https://openreview.net/forum?id=lJdOlWg8td
Now you got my attention – thanks for sharing!
By the way the event-based approach to computational efficiency without compromising performance seems Delbruck-inspired. Amusingly, in the paper the DVS128 Gesture Dataset is used ... very fitting indeed.

Spatial transcriptomics sheds light on the #echinoderm body plan!
#preLight from Rodrigo Senovilla-Ganzo.
Rodrigo covers a #preprint from #lab_lowe showing that the bilaterian antero-lateral axis shifts to medio-lateral in the #ectoderm of adult echinoderms.
'Marsella, capital de la Provenza, es una ciudad de ciudades, la más antigua y la más diversa de Francia. Una muñeca rusa que entraña tantas posibilidades como ambición tenga cada visitante.'
'Our findings demonstrate that developmental bias in fly wings predicts evolvability and macroevolutionary trajectories on a much greater scale than previously appreciated but also suggest that causal explanations for such alignments may go beyond simple constraint hypotheses.'

Submissions are now open for the Working Memory Symposium (June 20-23)!
The deadline is May 31st, and the link and additional details can be found at our homepage: https://wmsymposium.org.
Share with all the early-career researchers so we can hope to feature them and their work!
This is definitely an area where it makes sense that AI could outperform humans.
'The new methodology is “remarkable”, says Dave Mauger, a computational RNA biologist who previously worked at Moderna in Cambridge, Massachusetts, a maker of mRNA vaccines. “The computational efficiency is really impressive and more sophisticated than anything that has come before.”

A reference framework to normalize human lymphocyte numbers in ageing.
'In this study, we analyze cross-sectional numbers of mainly T lymphocytes (CD3+, CD3+CD4+, and CD3+CD8+) and their subpopulations (naive and memory) from 673 healthy Dutch individuals ranging from infancy to adulthood (0–62 y). We fitted the data by a delayed exponential function and estimated parameters for each lymphocyte subset.'

D’Arcy Wentworth Thompson was born OTD in 1860. He conceived of organismal form as primarily a matter of physical forces, rather than natural selection.
He used diagrams to represent how networks of physical forces could deform one body plan into another.
