- Reposted by Anne-Marie Dion-CôtéWe love to fetishize "top" researchers and give them special big pots of money. But we get far more science by spreading money among all researchers (closer to the NSERC DG model). This old post is magically relevant again... scientistseessquirrel.wordpress.com/2015/05/12/w...
- Are these unsolicited/non-consented AI review of biorxiv posted papers really a thing? 🙄
- Reposted by Anne-Marie Dion-CôtéHow to keep in step when your (protein) partner speeds up… Here we investigated the adaptive remodeling of a protein-protein interaction surface essential for telomere protection. Congrats to whole team! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
- In this latest piece, part of a trans-Atlantic enriching collaboration, we investigate sex-specific differences in gametogenesis in fish hybrids underlying clonal reproduction: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- Reposted by Anne-Marie Dion-Côté#CancerGenetics people: I am looking for examples of tumor suppressor genes that are inactivated in cancers by regulatory mutations (non-coding) rather than coding mutations. Please share.
- Very pleased to see this one out. Unexpected and fascinating finding. I look forward to follow-up on this story 😁
- Roussel, Suh, @fjruizruano.bsky.social & @amdioncote.bsky.social characterized TE content in naturally occurring killifish hybrids, finding higher TE load and accumulation of Neptune subfamilies in hybrids. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msaf266 #evobio #molbio #TEsky

- Reposted by Anne-Marie Dion-CôtéA while back (maybe 3-4 years?) there was a paper on common misconceptions of the genetics of various traits. One of them was eye colour in humans. I have lost this reference and can't find it anywhere. Does anyone recognise what I mean?
- Reposted by Anne-Marie Dion-CôtéMassive investment in science in the upcoming Canadian budget would send a strong message that rationality and reason should lead the world, not charlatanism. People will return to science-based policies and health measures, and countries that have not given up will have a strong economic lead!

- Peer review ✍️, when done properly, remains an excellent mean to improve manuscripts ✔️. Special thanks to two anonymous reviewers that helped us put together this new version! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- New preprint from the lab led by former masters student AJ Roussel in collaboration with Alexander Suh and @fjruizruano.bsky.social. We found a ~4-fold accumulation of a Neptune #transposon in asexually reproducing "F1" fish hybrids. An unexpected and fascinating finding! #TEsky

- Reposted by Anne-Marie Dion-CôtéI am somehow for the first time ever reviewing for PNAS and their reviewer instructions include this BANGER of a line: "The purpose of peer review is not to demonstrate proficiency in identifying flaws" Print it in eleventy point font and hang it from the hillside. Scream it from the rooftops.
