The Dawn of Virtual Cell Biology: journal club video available. Today I attended a virtual journal club.

The Dawn of Virtual Cell Biology: journal club video available

Organized by Stephen Larson of OpenWorm (I talked about that very cool 3D worm project in a tip of the week a while back), it also included a few folks from OpenWorm, and two of the authors of the paper: Jonathan Karr and Jayodita Sanghvi. Jonathan’s cat also showed up at one point Stephen did a part in the beginning that was a presentation of the main features of the paper, and the context of the work in biology today.

I think he had quite a similar take on it to what I was describing in my tip this week: modeling types of papers cause a bit of drama and resistance in the biology community; and that this relied on so much previous work in hundreds of publications and lots of curated databases. But he also stressed the importance of this work in moving this field forward. The discussion part was terrific. Anyway, the video is available and you can watch. I really enjoyed the virtual journal club idea and format. Noncanonical Wnt Signaling Maintains Hematopoietic Stem Cells in the Niche.

Figure 1 DNA Damage Signaling in rhi Mutants (A–C) Mutations in mnk, which encodes the DNA damage signaling kinase Chk2, suppress the Gurken and Vasa protein localization defects in rhi mutants. (A) In a stage 9 wild-type oocyte, Grk (blue) is localized at the dorsal anterior cortex near the oocyte nucleus and Vas (red) is localized at the posterior cortex. (B) In rhi egg chambers, this localization pattern is lost, with Grk and Vas dispersed throughout the oocyte.
