every once in a while you've gotta remember we're living in the best time to be alive in human history, even if there's obviously a lot of evil out there that needs to be defeated
The new OrthoFinder paper is out now!
In this new work, we introduce major advances in accuracy and scalability, allowing analysis on much larger datasets

The updated OrthoFinder v3 software boosts accuracy and scalability in phylogenetic orthology inference with massive and diverse datasets.
On screwworm, but also relevant for many other issues. <3 the USDA
🚨 BREAKTHROUGH: Scientists have developed an mRNA cancer vaccine that programs immune cells inside the body to recognize and attack cancer without needing laboratory cell engineering.

Just got an alert that views for the Biology PhD Stipends database spiked over the past weekend! Lets keep this database up-to-date, if your program increased their EEB PhD stipend, submit an update: mlgaynor.com/BiologyPhDSt...
I just learned that OMB is required to respond to every comment on the anti-peer-review rule. So that means our comments really matter, at the very least by gumming up the gears. Send your comment today.
Please share with any budding young mycologists/microbiologists/molecular biologists who might be interested in coming to do an MSc or PhD! We are looking to recruit a student to follow up on some of our observations about ROS resistance and sensitivity in yeasts: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Ultimately, this is an all hands moment. Every action, no matter how small, helps push the defense of science and free expression forward. This is one of the most direct ways people can influence executive action, and it doesn’t have to be difficult.
Recently, Dr. Keller was featured on the podcast "The Life Lab by Death Clock," where she discussed molds and mycotoxins, and their impacts on the food supply chain.

This is not a problem that gets solved by rugged individualism. You cannot personal-responsibility your way out of it. It cannot be biohacked at home. It requires a coordinated and ongoing effort by multiple governments. The USDA is the main chunk of the US government that works on it.
"As an institution, we are — by charter and design and history — nonpartisan. But we are in a deeply partisan age. Just by doing our work, we will be viewed in a partisan light no matter what. So our job is to double down on the science."
