#newPI What do you do when references of applicants to your lab don’t respond to your multiple requests to meet to discuss the candidate? How often do you contact them? What do you do when they don’t respond? When do you give up? Trying to figure out a fair way to deal with this.

Anyone know how you can automatically follow back everyone that’s following you?

The goal of the mentor should be for their scientist-in-training to supersede them in achievements, by providing them with even more opportunities and support than they ever had.

“A caring supervisor not only nurtures their students’ development but also provides guidance and mentorship to help them effectively communicate their work with their intended audience. Publishing our work is not just a choice; it is our responsibility as scientists.”

I'm excited to share our most theoretical work yet, led by 3rd year PhD student Paul Torrillo. We revisit the old observation that dN/dS depends on the distance between compared sequences. We arrive at a radically different conclusion than current prevailing theory. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our review on #microbiome engineering is out! We chart the history of bacterial genetics & the challenges when applying tools designed for E. coli to microbiomes (hint: not effective). Kudos to co-authors Christian Kirk (phd student) & Ruth Ley (uber boss) 🧪🧬 www.annualreviews.org/doi/10.1146/...

Have been home for a few days now, but my mind is still very much in Porto and the 6th International Conference on Enterococci (#ICE6). A great event for a wonderful community.

A group photo of ~140 attendees of the 6th International Conference on Enterococci in Porto (September 2023). The background consists of white university buildings and the sky is bright blue.

When facing the "All we need is STEM!" approach to education, my usual response is: Developing the vaccine was the STEM problem; distribution & getting shots in arms was the Social Science problem; getting people to trust it & combatting misinformation was the Humanities problem-- which did we fail?
