Our new paper titled: "Wiring between close nodes in molecular networks evolves more quickly than between distant nodes" has been published in @molbioevol. We explored Drug Interactions as a proxy for studying network evolution in gram-negative bacteria. https://academic.oup.com/mbe/advance-article/doi/10.1093/molbev/msae098/7676686?utm_source=advanceaccess&utm_campaign=mbe&utm_medium=email
Wiring between close nodes in molecular networks evolves more quickly than between distant nodes

Abstract. As species diverge, a wide range of evolutionary processes lead to changes in protein-protein interaction networks and metabolic networks. The ra

If you’re at the right place at the right time, with the right equipment, this is possible.

Last night, with guidance from https://transit-finder.com/, I positioned myself along the narrow line where the International #SpaceStation would pass between me and the nearly full moon.

I used a Fujifilm X-T4 shooting 4K video through a Celestron 8” SCT to capture the pass. Then, back at the computer this morning, put together these views with PIPP, Registax, and GIMP.

Quite pleased. My best yet.

Today’s Google Doodle honors Jerry Lawson, the black video game pioneer that worked on the Fairchild Channel F (1976)

He would have been 82 today (1940-2011). The Doodle lets you play a neat Mario Maker-style game

I interviewed Lawson in 2009: https://www.vintagecomputing.com/index.php/archives/545/vcg-interview-jerry-lawson-black-video-game-pioneer
