Ian Marshall @ianpgm.bsky.social · 18/05/2025Intraterrestrials emphasises that it takes a lot of people to do good science - how groundbreaking discoveries by definition need to be carried out by many scientists independently. Good to see this counter narrative to the "loner hero scientist" narrative that you often see in the media. 5/6 110
Ian Marshall @ianpgm.bsky.social · 18/05/2025I'm still trying to figure out how copy and paste this sequence from my paper copy of the book into BLAST. But yes, it's a great book, five stars, read it! 6/6 300
Alex Probst @alexjprobst.bsky.social · 18/05/2025Take a photo with your iphone and you can copy from the photo! (it’s a 16S rRNA seq of an uncultivated archaeon) 120
Karen Lloyd @karenlloyd.bsky.social · 18/05/2025Ian! Thank you so much for reading my book!!! I'm glad you got a laugh out of the straight-up fasta sequences I put in there. I couldn't help myself - it's so easy to democratize bioinformatics. And thank you for YOUR lovely contributions to this crazy field of science that we're in! 010
