Earliest octopuses were giant top predators in Cretaceous oceans
Top predators drive changes in ecosystem structure. For the last ~370 million years, large-sized vertebrates have dominated the apex of the marine food chain, while invertebrates have served as smaller prey. Here we describe invertebrate top predators ...

“I armed myself with patience and courage, and only after several months managed to dissolve my doubts and see my research crowned with happy confirmation.”

The Octopus: An Alien Among Us
Self-replicating, bacterial life first appeared on Earth about 4 billion years ago. For most of Earth’s history, life remained at the single-celled level, and nothing like a nervous system existed …

Home - Octosphere
Octosphere bridges the gap between academic publishing and the social web. It automatically syncs your research publications from Octopus to the AT Protocol (the atmosphere) — an open, decentralized network for social apps like Bluesky.

BioNexus: A Scientific Reliability Layer for Agentic Biology As coding agents such as OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor become increasingly capable of running bioinformatics workflows, a new problem emerges: Knowing how to run an analysis does not mean knowing when that analysis is scientifically valid. BioNexus is an open-source project exploring a reliability layer for biological coding agents rather than another standalone AI scientist. Its current architecture focuses on: Machine-readable Capability Contracts — define input semantics, scientific preconditions, canonical backends, refusal conditions, and evidence requirements. EvidenceCard 2.1 — separates execution state from scientific evidence and grades conclusions as PRELIMINARY, SUPPORTED, ROBUST, REPLICATED, FRAGILE, or ABSTAIN. Scientific Intent & Invariant Routing — detects invalid analyses such as pseudoreplication, incompatible data representations, or missing backends. BioNexus Eval — evaluates routing, unsafe claims, refusal behavior, and scientific outcomes. RunBundle Artifact Contract — packages inputs, parameters, results, provenance, environment, and evidence into reproducible machine-readable runs. The long-term goal is simple: Make scientific reliability a first-class infrastructure layer for agentic biology. BioNexus is still evolving, and I am actively looking for contributors in bioinformatics, single-cell/spatial omics, scientific benchmarking, MCP, reproducibility, and AI coding agents. PRs, issues, benchmark datasets, scientific critiques, and failure cases are especially welcome.
