    Happy Monday #ScienceMastodon! Check out this #ResearchHighlight from Issue 19 of JCS featuring some gorgeous images of #Drosophila Malpighian tubules. Julian Dow and colleagues at the University of Glasgow and University of Copenhagen show that disrupting septate junctions in fruit fly renal tubules produces cell- and tissue-level dysfunction similar to that seen in aged flies. #agingbiology #CellBiology

    The need to look for forced analogies at the Starwars mono-theme as a clickbait for science communication says a lot about the lack of culture and imagination in our current society.

    Thanks to a mass of beautifully preserved fossils, scientists have discovered a peculiar ancient predator: a giant of Cambrian times with the silhouette of a spaceship. #ResearchHighlight go.nature.com/2Kg8mkb
