#Observation is one of the foundations of #science. When observing a new fact, we always compare it with a control, a witness or a standard and every conclusion is relative to our references. Sometimes I think we need to remember that and understand that certain things are #incomparable.
@vndmtrx Legal! Eu acho essas ferramentas incríveis! A biologia molecular teria avançado muito pouco sem elas. O volume de dados e a complexidade das informações gênicas são imensos.
@vndmtrx Obrigado! Biologia molecular tem muito trabalho em R e Python. Vc já trabalhou com bioinformática?
@vndmtrx @acervorevolucionario Às vezes, eu gosto de viajar e escrever uma "tese" sobre a imagem, mas é raro.
@acervorevolucionario teve uma enquente por aqui que perguntou para os deficientes visuais como eles preferiam a descrição do alt-text, as alternativas foram do "simples e curto" até a mais elaborada com informações extras e easter eggs. Não lembro a porcentagem, mas "simples e curto" foi a mais votada. Então sei lá, talvez não seja algo para se preocupar tanto. Se for a foto de um gato, descreve como foto de um gato e pronto.
This looks potentially useful at reducing noise in scRNA-seq datasets

Last month we released #kakapo back onto mainland NZ for the first time in living memory. All four have just had a health check and are doing well. We’ll look to release more kākāpō to Maungatautari soon. Pic: Dani Whitaker #returnofthekakapo #parrots #conservation
Bueno días mastoneros. Esta mañana tenemos buena noticia. La mujer de Carl Sagan ha subido todos los epidsodios de Cosmos a youtube

John Flamsteed was born #OTD in 1646.
His main achievements were the preparation of a 3,000-star catalogue, Catalogus Britannicus, and a star atlas called Atlas Coelestis, both published posthumously. He also made the first recorded observations of Uranus, although he mistakenly catalogued it as a star, and he laid the foundation stone for the Royal Greenwich Observatory. via @wikipedia
Do you care about undescribed biodiversity?
Feel like more and more new plant species are already threatened with extinction?
Need a reminder of why taxonomy continues to play a key role in science?
Check out our new paper, where we show that a whopping 75% of plants described after 2020 are threatened 🌿
If you're describing new species, assume they're threatened and, if poss, assess them straight away!
