Curiosity Stream on Instagram: "The idea of bringing back extinct animals sounds like science fiction, but it's a mission that scientists are actively pursuing! Thanks to incredible advancements in gene-editing technologies like CRISPR, the conversation around "de-extinction" is no longer just a fantasy. While we haven't brought back the exact Dire Wolf as it roamed millennia ago, scientists have successfully used genetic insights to reintroduce traits of extinct species into modern relatives, e

The Brainrot Community on Instagram: "😂 The word “meme” was coined long before the internet — in 1976! Biologist Richard Dawkins introduced the term “meme” in his book The Selfish Gene. He used it to describe how cultural ideas, behaviors, or styles spread from person to person — like a virus. He even based the word on the Greek word “mimeme,” meaning “imitated thing.” Fast forward to the internet age, and memes evolved into the hilarious (and sometimes chaotic) viral images, jokes, and trends

Explaining universe on Instagram: "🦴 Cleidocranial Dysplasia (CCD) – Rare but Remarkable 🧬 Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a rare genetic disorder that primarily affects bone and dental development. It’s caused by mutations in the RUNX2 gene, which plays a key role in forming bones and teeth. 🔍 Key Characteristics: Collarbones (clavicles) may be absent or underdeveloped, allowing unusually flexible shoulders. Skull sutures (the joints between skull bones) close much later than normal. Dental

Tech in A Day on Instagram: "Australian scientists developed a "biological artificial intelligence" system called PROTEUS. It uses directed evolution to design and evolve molecules with new functions in mammal cells. PROTEUS can create molecules with specific properties to solve problems, such as developing new medicines. The system accelerates evolution cycles, allowing it to find solutions in weeks that would take humans years. PROTEUS has potential applications in gene editing, gene therapy,

KISS LOST ARCHIVE on Instagram: "🎉 Happy Birthday, Gene Simmons! 🦇 Today we celebrate The Demon himself, born August 25, 1949. Beyond the stage, Gene also explored his passion for acting, and here we have a rare 80s clip where he reads from a script, showcasing another side of his creativity.

Houston Chronicle on Instagram: "Gov. Greg Abbott asked the Texas Supreme Court on Tuesday to remove state Rep. Gene Wu of Houston from office for his role in leading Democrats in their quorum break over redistricting.⁠ ⁠ Wu and dozens of other Democrats fled to Illinois on Sunday to block a vote on a new congressional map meant to shore up Republicans’ power in Congress.⁠ ⁠ “Representative Wu and the other Texas House Democrats have shown a willful refusal to return, and their absence for an in
