I love the concept of this graphical abstract!

An articulate case for expanding graduate student lunch and dinner options at Rice University. I must also say that, other than the serveries, even the lunch buying options are too limited. We might do well by keeping spots for a couple rotating food trucks around lunchtime too

"Your Honour, why are the rights of convicts upheld when the victims are Dalits and members of minority communities and why are the right of victims invoked when the victims belong to Hindu ‘upper’ castes?" - m.thewire.in/article/rights… via The Wire

Incredibly excited to share my first #preprint with the Golding Lab: When multiple viruses infect the same bacterium, they slow or even prevent each other from entering the cell. Synopsis thread below for the themes we're tackling. Please retweet! [1/14] doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…

Can you tell real news apart from ChatGPT nonsense headlines? Interesting study from Cambridge university researchers to test your misinformation susceptibility. What is #YourMIST? 🧐 yourmist.streamlit.app #misinformation #fakenews

What an excellent visualization!

I like the idea of S-values or "Surprisal" values — I think it's a far more intuitive way for people to reason about evidence. I bet most people would be shocked that the standard criteria for statistical significance in science amounted to seeing about 4 heads in 4 flips.

"First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux

Summarizes very well, the historical context of aerial bombardment and colonialism

Hire Sebastian before someone else scoops him up! He's a clever problem-solver with deep, practical knowledge of microbial and plant wet lab systems. 🦠🌱🧪

Excellent workshop if you are starting out on 16S amplicon sequencing analysis. They explain the concepts very succinctly and also give out open resources - slides and a notebook for interactive analysis

This is an excellent initiative for open science 😊

So simple, so apt

When we switch scientific publishing over to computational notebook articles, you can include everything — analysis and data — and people who build on your work will love you for it.

I couldn't help but think of the exact same thing when I read this piece

Simultaneous election to federal and state legislatures due to "electioneering fatigue" is analogous to "dog ate my homework" excuse for politicians to campaign rather than govern. Excellently argued by पुलियाबाज़ी पॉडकास्ट | Puliyabaazi Hindi Podcast in "one election, many problems" episode pca.st/episode/ae162c…

Who are Indians descended from? Aryans from Europe? Dravidians who've been "here" forever? The Indus valley civilization? A controversial question for 150+ years, but now we have DNA evidence that answers these questions with a high degree of certainty. 🧵

This might be the best science podcast I listened to in a while. If you're ever short on motivation for science, Sebastian's DIY adventures will bring it back! Thanks for sharing your inspirational journey and for all that do you Sebastian S. Cocioba🪄🌷 😊 pca.st/episode/9218c9…

I guess they always had the freedom to go to the industry. What was stopping them? This should tell you that there's a market for researchers wanting to be in a university model. Achieving goals through coercion with funding cuts doesn't really reflect free-market thinking.
