🧪 #consgen This de-extinction absurdity is clearly all about $$$$$$. Worse, it is being exploited by the right wing as a cover to justify environmental destruction. Every good biologist at Colossal should resign.

Great to see our latest paper on Ngorongoro Crater lion genomics out @commsbio.bsky.social Even after a rapid post-epizootic recovery in the 1970s, habitat fragmentation and continued isolation led to an increase in genetic load and to a reduction in overall genetic variation.

#consgen authority Fred Allendorf cries out in despair for American science in the Missoulian newspaper. It’s terrifying to watch this destruction unfold day by day. My heart goes out to my American colleagues and friends. Stay strong and fight.

Time to rethink academic publishing: the peer reviewer crisis. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/... Evidence suggests that editors are having to invite more and more reviewers to identify those willing to perform peer review.
