Well, I dare anyone to read the abstract without giggling. I failed miserably at that.
Beatiful work!
Our attempt to give multinucleate cells the spotlight they deserve (seriously, they’re everywhere), led by the fearless @mrosjac.bsky.social and with @Markus Ganter

We’d love your feedback while this goes through the peer review process!

That could work, assuming the editor/publisher accepts it. If it goes against the publisher´s policies, might be tricky to convince them.
Yes, I´m certain that this will happen more frequently. I took the time to browse literature on this. Seems current detectors are very reliable in detecting purely AI-generated text, but are also prone to false positives with human writing.
I just wrote an invited review on one of my favourite topics. This was a long and tiring process (as usual). I wrote the entire thing from scratch without any AI tool (not even editing or paraphrasing). Editor comes back to me with highlighted sections that were AI-generated. How should I reply?

Here's a few thoughts after the FASEB meeting on Mechanobiology of the nucleus #MBNSRC
1 - The community is healthy and growing in multiple directions
2 - New people are committed in moving the field forward
3 - Some directions are unexpected and have huge potential.
Looking forward to new chapters

Get out your calendars! The motors are out of quarantine and we plan to assemble in person on 8th May 2026 at University of Warwick Campus for a fun day on motors and the filaments they walk along. Livestream is planned too. More details on registration, travel bursaries etc. will be revealed soon.
Sounds great! Looking forward to more news on this
Getting ready for the 2nd day of the Mechanobiology of the nucleus meeting! #MNBSRC
Almost time for the best meeting of the year! Looking forward to interact with everyone! See you there

Done! Thanks for the interest
Was a real pleasure! And congrats to Nelson on his amazing defense
Can pressure gradients persist over long timescales in animal cells? We induced intracellular pressure gradients and examined the resulting flows in single cells. We reveal surprisingly long lasting pressure gradients.

Are you interested on how regenerating tissues transit between stages? Am sharing here our work showing that during #Xenopus tail regeneration, tissue stiffening activates a Piezo1-Yap1 mechanosensitive cascade to allow wounded epithelia to transit into regenerative states!
Congrat Sachin! Excellent work
I am advertising for a #postdoc for a 3 year BBSRC-funded project exploring the role of macrophages in salivary gland development. The successful candidate will be based at @edinuni-irr.bsky.social at @uni-of-edinburgh.bsky.social. Closing date: 9th Oct. elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candid...
Congrats! Beautiful work, as usual.
No worries. Let's try to catch up one of these days
Thanks! I really enjoyed reading your last paper as well!
Thanks! Let´s see how it goes
Please do reach out if you have any questions/suggestions.
This mechanosensitive mechanism ensures that mitosis only occurs once chromosomes are sufficiently condensed, avoiding potential segregation errors caused by premature mitotic entry.
We further demonstrate how mitotic chromosome condensation generates a mechanical signal on the nuclear envelope during prophase. This mechanical signal coordinates the multiple steps required for mitotic entry such as cyclin B1 nuclear translocation and dynein binding to nuclear pores.
