Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Your genome also shapes your scoliosis, but I don't see anyone keeping you away from the whirligig inversion table.

Genome is not the only thing that shapes what a person is. Gene expression is variable as well. The world, and people, are more complicated than that.
