Looking forward to seeing what @chickenbert posts, and hoping there's lots of Molecular Imaging!

Maybe some #SciArt and #SciComm too?

My next 'climate viz of the month' blog is out, which provides some more background on new data challenges for sea-ice thickness/volume monitoring & summarizes the recent annual maximum sea-ice extent in the Arctic (record low): https://zacklabe.com/climate-viz-of-the-month/

Climate Viz of the Month

February 2026 It’s time for my next “climate viz of the month” blog, but first some unfortunate news. The widely used Pan-Arctic Ice-Ocean Modeling and Assimilation System (PIOMAS; Zhang and Rothro…

This week's #NewBooks at the library: An eclectic trio!
- Just in time for my review of The Wake of HMS Challenger, I found a second-hand copy of At Sea with the Scientifics from the University of Hawaii Press, which collects Joseph Matkin's letters home.
- Look what you made me do, Jordan Sorcery! I tracked down a very affordable copy of Jack Yeovil's Krokodil Tears in his Dark Future series.
- One more book from my employer's January sale: #Chimpanzees and Human Evolution from Belknap Press.

People have the perception that the shape of the Universe is spherical, but we actually don't know the real shape of the #universe .

We need more #research to determine it.

Our goal is to hear from as many perspectives among working professional science communicators as possible. Help us spread the word, and please let us know if you have any questions!

Attention Science Communicators!

We are conducting a survey on the landscape of science communication & need your help gathering experiences.

Please send this to #SciComm ppl you know. We want to get as thorough a sense of the state of the field as we can.

It's the official kick off day for our @WWF stream series! We are fundraising with @[email protected] to conserve species of the planet, while chatting with the scientific experts! Today, pollinators! 6pm EDT #science #twitch #live #stem #sciants #scicomm twitch.tv/sciants_Stre...
“Chemically linked to proteins and lipids on the cell surface, glycans direct communication and the exchange of materials between cells; they guide immune responses and substantially affect a cell’s functions and growth; they’re exploited by disease-causing viruses and other pathogens to gain entry. Glycans attach to biomolecules in every living creature”

Sweet! The cell’s sugary coating comes into view

Built from thickets of glucose, galactose, mannose and more, the glycome plays key roles in cell communication, immunity and the blood-brain barrier

“Non-coding RNAs turn out to regulate everything from embryonic development to immune responses to brain function. They help determine which genes get turned on and off, and when. They can promote cancer or suppress it.”

The silent majority: RNAs that don’t make proteins

Once considered cellular junk, non-coding RNAs are emerging as key players in everything from brain development to cancer — with much still to be discovered
