Chromosomal capture of beneficial genes drives plasmids towards ecological redundancy

Plasmids are a ubiquitous feature of bacterial genomes, but the evolutionary forces driving genes to become associated with plasmids are poorly understood. To address this problem, we compared the fit...

A busy life is not a symbol of status. It's a symptom of trying to do too much for too many people. A full calendar brings a surplus of stress and a shortage of energy. Reflecting and relaxing should be top priorities. Unscheduled time isn't wasted. It's invested in well-being.

Your worth is not defined by what you achieve or acquire. It’s a question of who you become and how you contribute to others. Self-esteem should come from character, not success or status. The highest accomplishment is to be a person of generosity, integrity, curiosity, humility, and wisdom.

A company isn't a family. Parents don't fire their kids for low performance or furlough them in hard times. A better vision for a workplace is a community—a place where people bond around shared values, feel valued as human beings, and have a voice in decisions that affect them.

🧪🦠 Frequent Q is how mirror bacterium could persist in nature. Marine Prochlorococcus good example. Little downside in terms of competitiveness + resistant to protists and phages. Net positive growth allows invasion. See Chapter 8 of technical report here: purl.stanford.edu/cv716pj4036

Figure 8.2 from technical report on mirror bacteria, showing potential for net population growth and invasion of marine environment by mirror phototrophic bacteria.
