As you know, there was a devastating earthquake in Colombia this week. Luckily, my family and closest friends are fine, but as you might have seen on the news, many people are affected, including people I know.

Weber, @sebduchene.bsky.social @camiladuitama.bsky.social et al. show that determining whether a population is measurably evolving or has reached the phylodynamic threshold depends on the data, model assumptions and sampling strategies. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msag133 #evobio #molbio

We’re the cops of the world and have been acting in that capacity for some time. But writing up a warrant for another head of state and swarming Caracas with missiles and helicopters so you can kidnap him all without even attempting to invent other pretext is next level, even for the U.S.

Sometimes you meet absolutely incredible bioinfo-magicians. It was a huge privilege when @shenwei356.bsky.social joined our group for a year on an @embl.org sabbatical. While here, he developed a new way of aligning to millions of bacteria, called LexicMap 1/n www.nature.com/articles/s41...

nature.com

Efficient sequence alignment against millions of prokaryotic genomes with LexicMap - Nature Biotechnology

LexicMap uses a fixed set of probes to efficiently query gene sequences for fast and low-memory alignment.

Hi! I need help covering the costs of the surgery and PT to repair my shoulder labrum, an injury caused by cops two summers ago. I am very disabled and need help again to get out of my medical debt. Help me out if you can and please share if you can’t? (link below)

Shoulder Repair Surgery: 8% towards the $8,300 goal. text underneath reads: In the late summer of 2023 I got thrown around by a pair of cops and they injured my left shoulder. That shoulder never got proper medical care and dislocated when I was exercising late in 2024, and in January of this year I got surgery to fix the bad tear in my shoulder labrum. This, of course, put me back in thousands of dollars of medical debt. The amount here is what I need to come up with to pay for the surgery as well as 6 weeks of physical therapy.
