It all boils down to this! If we believe in science and the peer-review process in its broader sense, why wouldn’t we always choose to send our work to respectable non-profit journals from scientific societies that do a great job in the review process?

It was an amazing day-in-3D! Happy to have shar3D some insights on how to look at the genome from a different perspective 🧶🧬 (Thanks #MSCA @ec.europa.eu for funding through #POPARCH)

👏 It really shows how powerful meetings can be for sparking ideas and collaborations —and when those turn into joint efforts like this, even greater! Thank you all for this fun adventure! @mbrasovives.bsky.social @diegoharta.bsky.social @jrotwitguez.bsky.social @theafrogers.bsky.social et al

We have 🐟 herring pre print! Our new study reveals that ancient gene flow between Pacific and Atlantic herring played a key role in helping Atlantic herring adapt to the brackish waters of the Baltic Sea. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Really grateful to see our work featured by @quantamagazine.bsky.social in this piece on the evolution of genome regulation. Huge thanks to @philipcball.bsky.social for such a beautifully written article.

Are you interested in microRNAs 🧬 and goats 🐐? We are!! Then have a look at our preprint on how microRNA mutations segregate worldwide 🌍 in goat populations and the potentially derived consequences of prolonged inbreeding and geographical isolation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

You can keep on gatekeeping us small fish, but know that we do good science and we will fight to keep publishing our good science. But also note that your gatekeeping has now cost Anais her whole career. If you're an Editor that did this - you kinda did that dude/dudette.

I particularly liked this. "To create a true drug discovery engine, he believes we need half a dozen AlphaFold-level breakthroughs." I mean, we *could* alternatively just do more science - but hell no, let's assume we just need to throw more AI at it.

Wonderful wrap up for a great symposium #ESEB2025 - thank you to all parcitipants for their high quality presentations, talks and posters (here most of the female contributors, but there were more 😉)

As the father of the baby, I support this. ✨😁 #ESEB2025

Happy to share that our Perspective on how genome editing could restore lost diversity and help species adapt to climate or disease is out in @natrevbiodiv.nature.com We discuss potential, unknowns and risks tinyurl.com/33nm48vd Free access here: rdcu.be/ewMBq #consgen #popgen #Biodiversity

How to represent genomes in 3D? In this paper (and video), we propose Geometric Diagrams of Genomes (GDG)—a visual grammar that aims at emulating the effect ribbon diagrams (Richardson et al 1981) had in protein structural biology. Time will tell.😅 👉🏼 genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

🚀 En route to #ICCB2025! Excited to be part of Symposium 122: "Applying Genomics to Biodiversity Conservation" 📅 Wednesday, June 18 | 🕑 2:00 PM | 📍 Room M9 Joining forces with Carolyn Hogg, Christina Hwilson & Laura Bertola. See you there! #ConservationGenomics #ConsGen

Por lo menos en los años 20 antes del nazismo y las guerras hubo unas vanguardias, un terremoto cultural del copón bendito. Nosotros nos vamos a comer lo mismo 100 años después pero con reguetón y libros escritos por influencers. Este siglo es una reputísima mierda pinchá en un palo.

I’m very excited to share our work on the early evolution of animal regulatory genome architecture - the main project of my postdoc, carried out across two wonderful and inspirational labs of @arnausebe.bsky.social and @mamartirenom.bsky.social. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

With @hologenomics.bsky.social, we sampled each step of the process to see how microbial communities evolve. Spoiler alert: Even in a stable, well-behaved system, we found some surprises... 👀 (3/7)

I'll be teaching in the SIBE Summer School in Ferrara, from the 7th to 11th of September. Great place to learn about PopGen, comparative genomics and ✨Conservation Genomics✨ 🚨Deadline to apply: 11th of May🚨 sites.google.com/view/sibesum... See you there!

Dental calculus, the preserved oral microbiome, is an absolute treasure trove of information that can be interrogated across thousands of years. But how to make it work? In a new preprint, @markella-morait.bsky.social asks this questions using >30 mammalian species:

Yeah, like Europe offered a wealth of academic job opportunities and non-precarious working conditions to scientists.

Because English rules for articles are so bizarre ... thousands of grad students tear their hair out trying to figure out where to put a “the”, and advisors tear their hair out correcting the drafts that result. Is this really where we need to be? scientistseessquirrel.wordpress.com/2025/02/25/i...

My home girl Dr Nare Ngoepe has a news and reviews article in Nature! It's all about why some species are more likely to diversify than others!!! it's a short informative read! www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Thrilled to share my 1st PhD's 1st publication at @liigh-unam.bsky.social. Anecdotally it is also my 1st paper as corresponding author from my group / the "Paloegenomics and Evolutionary Biology". shorturl.at/VumOq Let us know what you think about it.

Oh yes, Homer’s famous “Tes Thdpssssps.” 👍🏻

New paper out! 📄 My first adventures in (ancient) metagenomics. 🦠 “Exploring DNA degradation in situ and in museum storage through genomics and metagenomics” www.nature.com/articles/s42... Curious about the water color painting (see ALT text)? 🦌 Thread (Bluetorial?) with findings! 🧶👇 (1/n)

3. This story really stuck w/ me & as the years pass I find that its value as a parable has only increased. It seems that in science now we place a lot of emphasis on speed & are inundated with a stream of information: emails! preprints! publication alerts! slack groups! bluesky!

At the very least we should be hyper critical of these tools - otherwise we are going to elevate the most self-serving uncritical voices since these BS machines are far superior to producing high quality BS than any human could hope to do
