30 Essays to Make You Love Biology
Day 5. "The Baffling Intelligence of a Single Cell," by James Somers & Edwin Morris.
This interactive article, about chemotaxis and flagella, gives "an intuition for how a bag of unthinking chemicals could possibly give rise to a being."

Check out this fantastic work led by @MaedbhK & @ladanshahani providing us with a comprehensive model of how cortical inputs converge in the cerebellum. Another piece of the puzzle of understanding how cerebellum contributes to movement & cognition!

How can we use fMRI to make inferences about cerebellar involvement in specific tasks? @ladanshahani's preprint introduces a clever new approach - and successfully tests it in the motor domain. Excited to be part of this!
