The bacterial flagellum looks like a simple tail, or whip.
But it’s actually a rotating motor, and perhaps the most sophisticated protein complex nature has ever evolved.
In e. coli, these motors are capable of astonishing speeds; about 15,000 rpm. (The world record, according…
New fastest shortest-path algorithm in 41 years!
Tsinghua researchers broke Dijkstra’s 1984 “sorting barrier,” achieving O(m log^(2/3) n) time. This means faster route planning, less traffic, cheaper deliveries, and more efficient networks - and a CS curriculum revamp =)
The way you think about the exponential function is (probably) wrong.
Don't think so? I'll convince you. Did you realize that multiplying e by itself π times doesn't make sense?
Here is what's really behind the most important function of all time:
Full brain of an adult fruit fly has been mapped with every neuron and synapse. A first at this level in any adult animal.
I’m always impressed when science gets this visual.

BREAKING: Scientists just analyzed 740,000 hours of human speech across YouTube and podcasts.
Turns out, ChatGPT is rewiring how humans speak to each other.
Here's what they discovered:
(hint: the first AI to successfully colonize our brains)
🚨: A 9,000-year-old skeleton in Somerset was genetically matched to a local man named Adrian Targett. Their mitochondrial DNA reveals an unbroken maternal lineage spanning 300 generations — the longest verified lineage in history.
Tau fibrils drive Alzheimer's, but there are no approved therapies that directly target them
This is a short peptide (discovered by Eisenberg lab, in Nature this week) that wraps itself around Tau fibrils and breaks them up:
Long context windows can NEVER kill RAG.
Here are 6 ways RAG keeps evolving beyond 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 vector search:

The original approach—simple vector similarity search followed by retrieval. This is what most people picture when they say "RAG is obsolete." But even…
(1/11) Genomics databases, like the SRA, host tons of data. But data access is challenging, driven largely by tooling. Below is a brief history on genomics data access. 🧵

Google DeepMind's CEO just stunned 60 Minutes viewers.
The Nobel prize winner revealed:
• An AI that can see and understand in real-time
• A plan to end ALL diseases in 10 years
• Exactly when AI will surpass human intelligence
Here are his 4 most jaw-dropping insights:🧵
There are so many weird Biology quirks that I somehow missed before and am only just finding now...
Apparently translation can and *does* initiate from EVERY codon
With the caveat that any codon other than the canonical AUG / GUG / UUG options induce transcription at such…

If you're doing bioinformatics and not using Git, you're walking a tightrope without a safety net.
But it’s easier than you think.
🧵 6 Git commands that every bioinformatician should know:
🧵 Unlocking the true potential of AI and bioinformatics hinges on one missing link: real-time biological data.
I saw that Prof. Nikolai Slavov posted this, and that reminds me of how complicated a single cell is.
OpenAI is about to make their boldest move ever.
They're releasing their $300B AI model blueprints to the public.
But it's not about openness or goodwill. It's about something much bigger…
Here’s the real reason OpenAI is going open weights (and why it matters): 🧵
the best researchers from Meta, Yale, Stanford, Google DeepMind, and Microsoft laid out all we know about Agents in a 264-page paper [book],
here are some of their key findings:
HBOT ranks as one of the highest value health therapies I’ve done. Results from 60 sessions:
+ wiped out all systematic inflammation in my body. Below detectable levels. This is wild.
+ 300% increase in VEGF (formation of new blood vessels)
+ telomerase activity of a 12 year…
