Hey @UBCFixMySpace, why is the Life Sciences Centre East Atrium so cold today?
Vancouver set a timid goal of 68km of new/upgraded bike paths over 5 years and didn't even complete 1/3. We're still missing >100 km of sidewalks; we might build 13km by 2027. Very sad numbers for a city that wants 2/3 of trips to be outside of cars by 2040, perhaps by magic.
I did the animation, but the beautiful designs are all Iciar's work!

Oh no! After decades of acceptance, UBC IT Security has finally disallowed my strategy of simply adding an extra 's' to my password each year, and removing them all every 7 years.
Apparently @Nature has a serious concern that we were correct–that the cancer microbiome is just not there, as we described in our paper now published in @mbiojournal. The Nature paper now has an Editor's Note:

Elsevier WTF? I find the review article I want, click on the Full-text link, log in through my institution, and get just the Introduction, followed by 7-line 'section snippets' instead of the full text! Or I can pay $27.99 for a pdf.
That's not what the study examined. It only looked at those high-risk COVID patients who didn't take Paxlovid. Of these, 80% had not been offered it. It didn't look at high-risk patients who did take Paxlovid.

If you're feeding Anna's hummingbirds during this cold snap, be sure to put extra sugar in your syrup (1 part sugar to 3 parts water). It helps them keep warm and also keeps the syrup liquid longer.

Find me on Bluesky or through my newsletter: https://t.co/sUMoqFWZWg.Yes 💯 The fact that others use a term in a different way should not stop you from using it, provided you are clear what you mean when you are using it
@slavov_n Some concepts we find useful do not have a clear, universally-accepted definition (species, gene, organism, population, etc), and IMO never will for fairly obvious reasons. This is fine- just define what you mean by a term clearly in your work and there is no confusion.
I can't agree with this enough. THIS!!
If there was only one scientific practice I could teach to every scientist regardless of stage or field I think it would be: look at the data. Spot check it. Find a few data points and trace them through to see if they make sense. Look at the raw data. Don't just do analyses.

So grateful and excited to receive @CIHR_IRSC support to understand the molecular epidemiology of neonatal sepsis in low- and middle- income countries. According to @WHO, 2.4 million of neonates die in 2020 globally. Due to health inequities, burden is felt most acutely in LMIC.
Check out this trailer! Meiosis, mitosis, candy, a dramatic soundtrack - and was that a #LEGO minifigure!?—what more could you want! I point my students to @RosieRedfield genetics videos—this one looks like cool #SCIcomm!
Do you teach biology, cell biology or genetics? Pam Kalas and I have developed radically better teaching animations for mitosis and meiosis; they emphasize understanding 'how' and 'why', not rote memorization. Here’s the trailer! youtu.be/DBOpP43foBI.
