Carl T. BergstromSo everyone knows that the New York Times has had a particularly unfriendly online subscription policy where you had to talk to an agent to cancel.
But this is really nasty: the UW just purchased NY Times access for faculty, staff, and students.
BUT if you are existing subscriber, you are explicitly excluded from the agreement and have to continue your personal subscription.
Jamie Hall🎬 🧫🦠 This amazing time-lapse video shows bacteria-phage coevolution occurring on agar plates over ~6d. Mesmerising visuals, enhanced even more when you read the paper for a glimpse at the underlying evolutionary genetics 😍 #microbiology #journalclub #microbialevolution #phage https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-022-35351-w
Multistep diversification in spatiotemporal bacterial-phage coevolution - Nature Communications
Bacteria and their viruses coexist and coevolve in nature, but maintaining them together in the lab is challenging. Here, a spatially structured environment allowed prolonged coevolution, with bacteria and phage diversifying into multiple ecotypes, uncovering gene mechanisms affecting phage-bacteria interactions.

Roby BhattacharyyaUndergrads: applications for an amazing summer biomedical research opportunity at the Broad Institute in Boston, MA (USA) are due Jan 10 - read more here: https://broad.io/bsrp
Includes stipend, free housing, travel costs, seminars, coursework, career mentorship.
(If you’re interested in infectious disease / microbiology research, my lab plans to take a summer student thru this program.)
People traditionally underrepresented in science are especially encouraged to apply!
Broad Summer Research Program (BSRP)
About The Broad Summer Research Program (BSRP) is an intensive nine-week summer research opportunity designed for undergraduates with a commitment to biomedical research and an interest in genomics. BSRP has a strong record of success in helping students to nurture their passion for research and succeed in graduate school and scientific careers. Students spend the summer performing original computational or experimental-based research in labs across the Broad's research areas, from cancer to infectious disease to computational biology.

scott fPhil Ting's #FreedomToWalk Act is now law in California. You can cross the street anywhere as long as you're not creating a hazard.
#Jaywalking, the fake "crime" created by automobile industry lobbying to blame victims of #TrafficViolence, no longer exists in California.
Enjoy your freedom to walk! https://ktla.com/news/california/new-law-allows-californians-to-legally-jaywalk/
New law allows Californians to legally jaywalk
A new law signed on Friday will allow Californians to legally jaywalk without being ticketed. Pedestrians can now cross the street outside of an intersection without breaking the law as long as it is safe to do so. The bill, AB 2147, also known as The Freedom To Walk Act, was introduced by Assembly member […]
To anyone needing a good pick me up, dig me out of the pandemic, and keep me rocking while I’m the only one in lab over break, trying to build a lecture about DNA replication…I found a new favorite song today. 10/10 would reccomend. https://open.spotify.com/track/4bc5uke0uDwT78j0pIKlDg?si=PkwSMtdmTGKTDF0UPqXOsw

Henrietta Lacks was a poor, Black, young mother diagnosed cervical cancer in 1951. When her cells were collected w/o consent, scientists saw they multiplied fast.
“HeLa” cells changed #science. They’re used globally to study viruses, drugs, hormones, genes, diseases & develop vaccines. Lacks passed away at 31 w no recognition.
Rebecca Skloot’s beautiful book about her life & legacy is changing that. Now her statue will replace Robert E. Lee in VA. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/20/us/henrietta-lacks-statue-roanoke-virginia.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare #history #HistoryRemix
