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.

Please expand on this as I wish to learn more. Surely human prion disease cannot transmit through plants!

Unfortunately they do. Plans have been shown to take up prions associated with Chronic Wasting Disease and transmit them to mice.
