Congratulations to BIO SCI Professor Scott Tiegs on his Science paper: "Human activities shape global patterns of decomposition rates in rivers". science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Human activities shape global patterns of decomposition rates in rivers

Rivers and streams contribute to global carbon cycling by decomposing immense quantities of terrestrial plant matter. However, decomposition rates are highly variable and large-scale patterns and...

Congratulations to Professor Emeritus Charles Lindemann and @Kathielesich for their extensive review: "The mechanics of cilia and flagella: What we know and what we need to know" just published in Cytoskeleton @CytoskelJournal. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
A diagram of the eukaryotic axoneme in cross section. It is presented as viewed from base toward the tip of a flagellum. Prominent structures are labeled including the inner dynein arm (IDA), outer dynein arms (ODAs) and the nexin–dynein regulatory complex (N-DRC). The standard numbering system for the outer microtubule doublets and doublet subtubules (A DMT and B DMT) are indicated. Red triangle indicates the microtubule seam. Central pair (CP) projections and the inner junction (IJ) are shown. Note that doublets #5 and 6 are shown permanently linked (5–6 bridge) to each other and radial spokes (RS) 3 and 8 are linked to the CP apparatus. These connections occur in flagella and cilia of metazoa. The axis from doublet #1 to the center of doublets #5–6 defines the primary beat plane for most cilia and flagella.
