I'm constantly trying (/failing) to get this point across. If you're a trained expert in a field, then it may be worthwhile to question the scientific consensus of your peers. If you're not, the scientific consensus is absolutely the best you can do and it's arbitrary foolishness to disregard it.

Really cool work from Kimberly Kline and others! In the too little talked about E faecalis!

I am really happy to share that there will be a @nitmb.bsky.social workshop next year on mathematical and biological features of evolutionary game theory. It was really fun to co-organize this workshop with Olivia Chu, Alex McAvoy, and @jplotkin.bsky.social. www.nitmb.org/evolutionary...

1/27 We have a new paper out! Turns out that snowflake yeast have been hiding a secret from us - they've evolved a (very!) crude circulatory system. Not with blood vessels or a heart, but through spontaneous fluid flows powered by their metabolism. 🧪🔬 www.science.org/doi/full/10....

I'm incredibly honored by this opportunity to serve as President-Elect of @asm.org starting this summer. Looking forward to working with the Board, ASM leadership ,and staff to help advance the microbial sciences. I'm also glad to share my Vision statement, please join us! asm.org/Press-Releas...

WhatsApp is owned by Meta, the company behind Facebook, Instagram and, most recently, firing all their content moderators for political expediency. So this is a reminder to download Signal, a free messenger run by a nonprofit which is like WhatsApp but more secure and private: signal.org

Really great new work from the always interesting @csabapallab.bsky.social lab!

Very excited to have this paper officially out. This one is pretty special... Unfortunately, @kevinwoodum.bsky.social passed away when this paper was in its final stages. He was my biggest supporter, and I miss him deeply as a mentor and friend.

NSF makes you say who you got conflicts (coauthored) with. We (really just Jordan Matelsky) just built you a tool for that. Literally one click: bib.experiments.kordinglab.com/nsf-coa

Incredibly honored to have participated! Thank you @seanmcarroll.bsky.social .
