Paying peer reviewers works.
Expanded Fast & Fair experiment @biologyopen.bsky.social:
• 5.5 vs 37.7 working days to decision with reviews
• ~3 vs ~9 reviewer invitations per manuscript
• no reduction in editor-assessed review quality
• similar acceptance rates

Excited to share the published version of MIC-Drop-seq @natcomms.nature.com!
Shoutout to co-lead authors @claycarey.bsky.social @sparvez.bsky.social for driving this work. Excited to see where this new scale of single-cell perturbation screening goes next.

My grad student, who got RWR and appealed, got an email from GRFP program today that said "Your application was screened by NSF program officers with expertise in your proposed field of study and was determined to be ineligible according to the solicitation requirements."
No details were given. 😡

Kretov et al. introduce RBPscan, an RNA-editing-based platform that measures how RNA-binding
proteins engage their targets in living cells. This approach quantifies the binding

Pooled perturbation screens can reveal cellular regulatory networks, yet scaling these techniques for large-scale screens in animals remains challenging. To address this, we developed MIC-Drop-seq, wh...
