We’re getting word that people getting Universities to reach out to NSF over this & broader freeze may put pressure on them & help resolve this. If folks could start contacting their uni admin with complaints to forward to NSF (hopefully you know who to contact) it’d help a lot 06751

Turns out that the bumble bees we sampled hosted extraordinarily low diversity phage communities, relative to honey bees. 🐝🦠🧪biorxiv.orgTargeted Viromes and Total Metagenomes Capture Distinct Components of Bee Gut Phage CommunitiesbioRxiv - the preprint server for biology, operated by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, a research and educational institution 0115
