Nature Methods - Phylogenetic compression achieves performant and lossless compression of massive collections of microbial genomes, facilitating fast BLAST-like search and versatile alignment tasks.

As Trump administration cuts hit research, some fear American leadership in computer science is at risk.

Leveraging RNA-targeting dCas13d enables selective interference with phage protein translation and facilitates measurement of phage gene fitness at a transcriptome-wide scale.

If successful, ongoing efforts to slash federally-funded research mean parents should expect to pay more even as students have fewer options for career-relevant training.

Evolutionary Biology has undergone several transitions from the publication of "On the Origin of Species" through holistic gradualism, reconciliation with genetics and the emergence of population gene...

Abstract. The enormous diversity of bacteriophages and their bacterial hosts presents a significant challenge to predict which phages infect a focal set of

The physician and economist was the face of the Great Barrington Declaration, which opposed widespread lockdowns.

The ubiquity of bacteriophages (phages) and the major evolutionary and ecological impacts they can have on their microbial hosts has resulted in phages often cited as key drivers shaping microbial com...

About a year and a half ago, I wrote about a pair of papers posted on the bioRxiv preprint website.  Both papers examined the evolution of the distribution of fitness effects (DFE) in the LTEE popula...

Rather than a slow, gradual process as Darwin envisioned, biologists can now see how evolutionary changes unfold on accelerated timescales. Using an arms race between bacteria and viruses, researchers...

Welcome! You are invited to join a meeting: Grad school Q&A. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the meeting.

Microbes are widely recognized to be vital to host health. This new consensus rests, in part, on experiments showing how hosts malfunction when microbes are removed. More and more microbial dependenci...

The cohort of early career scientists represents a promising future for biomedical science. The HHMI Hanna H. Gray Fellows Program provides each fellow with up to $1.5 million in support for up to
