New research reveals domestic cats were first tamed in ancient Egypt for religious rituals honoring the goddess Bastet, challenging earlier beliefs that domestication began for pest control in early farming communities.

Our #genomics #bioRxiv preprint with Magdalena Machnicka is out!
Trans-homologous interactions identified in Hi-C data are associated with embryonic development https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.04.25.648339v1
Chromatin contacts between homologous chromosomes are widespread in the fruit fly and also present in other organisms. But what does it mean if trans-homologous (transh) contacts are enriched compared to the cis-homologous (cish) ones?

This tool offers semantic search & indexes arxiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv & ChemRxiv. It also allows you to see all the figures in a paper, without opening the entire paper itself. To get into paper figure preview mode, click on the little icon like a downward pointing triangle at the lower right side of abstract, & click on the little icon with a magnifying glass. The images will be bigger than in the article.

The #bioRxiv website is soooooooooo slow.
It's not just you, #biorxiv is down. Worrying reminder how much of science depends on a few centralized platforms and services.
It’s about time to share the March #CellBio preprint picks! #preList
8 preLighters teamed up to curate a preprint reading lists across different categories in cell biology, including cancer biology, cell migration, cell signalling and mechanosensing & more

As we continue our #polaroidproject at #biologists100, we now feature Matteo Allegretti ✨
Matteo is presenting work on the macromolecular architecture of male germ nuclei - part of which can be found as a preprint on #bioRxiv
#preprint: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.10.30.620797v2
#Preprint sites #bioRxiv and #medRxiv launch new era of independence
The popular repositories, where life #scientists post research before #peerreview, will be managed by a new organization called #openRxiv.
Until now, they had been managed by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. The new organization, named openRxiv, will have a board of directors and a scientific and medical advisory board. It is supported by a fresh US$16M grant from Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI).

#BioRxiv down?

Edit: back now it seems!
So happy to share good news!
:googlefire: The first paper from Cristina Parada's thesis is finally out.
It is a big step towards her Ph.D. in #biology
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/arch.70048
Yep, it is #paywalled but the #preprint out there in #biorxiv saves the day.

Bueno...
:googlefire: :googlefire: :googlefire: acaba de salir publicado el primer artículo del doctorado PEDECIBA de Cristina Parada.
Un pequeño paso para esta científica, pero un gran paso para su posgrado!

openRxiv has arrived!
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of openRxiv as an independent, researcher-led nonprofit to oversee @biorxivpreprint and @medrxivpreprint the world’s leading preprint servers for life and health sciences.

💚 openRxiv ensures communication at the speed of science remains the mission.
So yesterday i read a promotion `article´ in #biorxiv from a company proposing an #AI pipeline to write from proposal grants to the article ... "to allow the researcher to focus on the important things" and today I read a post saying that #Nature is thinking to used AI to be part of the peer review process.🙄 I think it is time for scientists, scientific bodies , National Academies of science... to put an end to this madness. All that money used for this | "help me to find the correct term " | is diverted from actual grant money, fair and actual smart research.
#bioRxiv has been down for 2 days for maintenance. This reliance on centralized repositories with no ability to mirror their site during maintenance is concerning. With recent talk of needing to decentralize #Pubmed, I think it's time we consider preprint servers as well. Solutions? Funding? How do we keep it neutral, away from the grubby hands of capitalism and governments gone wrong?
Fin 2023, l'annonce d'ajout de résumés automatiques générés par IA par niveau (de novice à expert) sur l'archive de #preprint #BioRxiv faisait grincer des dents. Cf. https://next.ink/692/quand-serveur-prepublications-scientifiques-utilise-ia-generative-pour-resumer-articles/
Début 2024, BioRxiv ajoutait la possibilité pour les auteurs d'éditer les résumés générés. https://connect.biorxiv.org/news/2023/11/08/summaries (edit en fin de page).
Aujourd'hui ce type fonctionnalité s'est largement répandue.. mais sans édition possible par les auteurs.. je n'ai rien trouvé de tel.
