We figured out how to turn protein function on and off, with magnetic fields from small handheld magnets.

Since https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-00204-9 seems paywalled, I put it in the toptext and moved the bsky.app link to the top. Hope that's ok!

Hey dang, would there be an interest in having the main link be a skyview.social link instead?

https://skyview.social/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbsky.app%2Fprofile...

(in the current bluesky link, only people who have a bluesky link would be able to watch it but skyview.social allows anybody to view a bluesky post even without an account, running directly within in the browser iirc)

Discovered it from the rob pike AI related recent HN post, what do you think?

Thanks!

don't tell me the magnetic bracelets have a measurable impact on ANY physiology

[AndrewGYork]

I'm fully convinced that magnets do absolutely nothing to (normal) animal physiology.

What's cool about this work though, is we show that magnetic effects on ENGINEERED biological systems can be enormous:
