Netflix CRISPR series is coming
I can't express how wonderfully strange it is to see all the CRISPR people I know blown up on the screen pretending to look through microscopes and delivering Aaron Sorkin-like lines!!!

Unnatural Selection on Netflix I can't wait. #unnaturalselection #netflix

New Nature report on Russian CRISPR project ends w/ intriguing quote from Denis Rebikov about whether its too soon for designer babies.

"What does it mean, too soon? Lenin said “yesterday was too early, tomorrow it will be too late”.
nature.com/articles/d4158…
FYI, this story, already has a correction which makes it a kind of non story. The Russian isn't editing eggs/zygotes of prospective deaf parents (which would imply he's closing in on a baby) but of healthy tissue donors (which isn't news cause he & others did it before.)
now that i search this supposed Lenin quote, i don't see it anywhere. so might have been made up, which is also interesting.

#Netflix #TecnoBreak #DolbyAtmos
A la vez, en la resolución, la calidad del sonido se va a modificar de acuerdo al nivel de estabilidad que tenga la conexión a internet que se usa a lo largo de la transmisión.
De acuerdo a la compañía, en caso de que la aplicación que funciona en los televisores detecte que se incluye compatibilidad con los 5.1 canales de audio, la transmisión del sonido podría llegar a los 640 kbps.

So in honor of all the fallen #Netflix #Marvel series, here's a thread about the fanfiction MCU show that my buddy Francois (@francoisvigneault on IG) & I have been talking about off and on for like 3+ damn years. It's set in 1973 and it's called FURY: Agent Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
(1/?)
Now, when I say we've been talking about this for years, I mean we started talking about it before Avengers 2. Plot beats, themes, & everything. We kept coming back to it-every time a new movie came out we'd be like "we should draw this up & post about it" but we never did.
(2/?)
So we came up with a lot of this stuff before characters got cast or explored in the real MCU. We set it in the past before Agent Carter came out & folded that into our plans. Ant Man etc hadn't come out. I'll note who we cast in our Young Nick Fury show. (3/?)

✂️🐟🎉🏀 Hey everyone, @Science_Baller here! I'll be the guest host today talking about all things #STEMed #scioutreach #scicomm and #CRISPR today! Jump with questions at any time and I'll try to answer them! It's going to be a #zebrafishparty and I'm pumped! 😎
A little about myself: I am a new lecturer in Biological Sciences @VanderbiltU . I teach a section of Introductory Bio (220 students) and 3 sections of Intro Bio Lab (16 students/each). What's the biggest course you have had to teach? #STEMed #AcademicTwitter #phdlife #phdchat
I graduated with my Ph.D. in Biochemistry in May from @RiceUniversity . My research focused on #zebrafish genetics using #CRISPR mutagenesis. My big paper discussed a new #CRISPR tool that we developed which has an increased mutation rate+longer deletions onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.100…

#Series ¡Me gustó la música de #Versailles! He terminado las dos primeras temporadas de esta ambiciosa serie de #ficciónhistórica disponible en @NetflixLAT, y ya espero la tercera y última temporada. En este hilo compartiré una apreciación personal del #Score y del #Soundtrack.
En primer lugar va la intro, es tan poderosa, que no usé en ningún episodio la opción de saltar intro o adelantarla. Es un tema compuesto por los franceses @M83 llamado #Outro. Se puede escuchar en @Spotify - @SpotifyColombia :

O si prefieren en @YouTube.
