Spine apparatuses everywhere!!
We show its conservation from🪰to humans thanks to @FlyWireNews. Interestingly, it’s only present in a small # of🪰neurons: the rare ones w/ actin-based spines similar to vertebrate spines. This hints that SA is co-evolving with the actin-based spines (2/n)

Super cool (plus the socio-political takes are endless)
A paper in @Nature suggests that menopause in toothed whales may have evolved to increase total lifespan. The findings suggest the evolution enables females to help younger generations survive, without competing with daughters or granddaughters for mates.
