==the author is not reporting correctly.

Actually, you are not reporting correctly:

“One of the study’s more unexpected discoveries is overlapping gene expression between the kidney’s different structures, according to Eric Brunskill, PhD, the study’s lead author. Most of the thousands of genes involved in making a mammalian kidney are expressed at some level in every compartment. Previously it had been thought each kidney compartment would have unique genes driving its development, and those genes would not be expressed in the cells of other structures. This is not the case, as the research team found only a small number of genes expressed exclusively in specific kidney structures.”

again OLD news.

The author is trying to make this multitasking as something new.

The author is poorly reporting science.
