You've heard about CRISPR, but have you heard about its little known (likely older) sibling VIPR?
VIPR, a CRISPR-ish system, "evolved from ancient conflicts between competing viruses and introduce a new programmable tool for controlling gene expression."
🧬 Why look at genetics at all? Because understanding root causes, not just outcomes, is how we build fairer, more effective obesity policy.

Half of our genome is made of transposons - snips of DNA that can move and copy themselves. But they're more than parasites or genetic junk. The post How Virus-like 'Jumping Genes' Became Our…

Healthy, flight-capable, 50%+ larger than nearby pure mallards. Background bird (likely Swedish Black) ~80% size of a domestic duck. F2/F3 hybrid? Genetics seem wild
