Magnetic remote control of biology

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!

Thanks!

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?

dang•2w ago

I don't have a bluesky account and can read https://bsky.app/profile/andrewgyork.bsky.social/post/3mcbrd... fine (at least I think I can) so I'm not sure what the difference is here?

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

All the subluxation "light inside your bones" chiropractors are going to have a field-day.

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:
