The “known protein universe” is big: hundreds of millions of sequences from thousands of species. Arcadia Science we wondered, how well does it reflect the “actual” protein universe? 🧵[1/15] research.arcadiascience.com/pub/result-pro…
I’m writing a piece on the evolution of flowering plants for jasandolive! Have leads but would love any interesting papers, podcasts, or scientist intros re: -insect-plant coevolution -petal development + evolution -plastid vs nuclear phylogenomic analysis RTs appreciated. 🙏
Don’t let my smile fool you. It took me three tries to make a pavé design for jasandolive w/o floral foam (a non-biodegradable phenolic foam that turns into microplastics). With roses avail year-round, you can make this design anytime, anywhere, for ~$30! jasandolive.substack.com/diy-pave-rose-…
Playing with asymmetry for jasandolive led to lush greenery feat. lilies, bupleurum, green dragon + an orchid in this custom, yellow vessel.
I love Jasmine Neal's vision and argument for more "scientific third spaces". jasandolive.substack.com/p/climate-comm… Also, selfishly, I'd love to have one nearby in Berkeley. Fill the glut of empty lab spaces with amateur flower designers.
