Check out the MiDAS global genome catalog preprint! We applied Nanopore long-read metagenomics to 83 selected samples from the MiDAS 4 global survey of wastewater treatment plants to create a genome catalog covering all core genera in the activated sludge microbiome. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

As director of CESAB, I'm incredibly proud to share the latest article of our postdocs today in Ecology Letters. 👏 They call for a more ethical academic publishing landscape but also ask to not let only the Early Career Researchers pay the price of this paradigm shift ! doi.org/10.1111/ele.... 🧪🌍
The publish-or-perish culture in academia has catalysed the development of an unethical publishing system. This system is characterised by the proliferation of journals and publishers unaffiliated with learned societies or universities— that maintain extremely large revenues and profit margins diverting funds away from the academic community. Early career researchers (ECRs) are particularly vulnerable to the consequences of this publishing system because of intersecting factors, including pressure to pursue high impact publications, rising publication costs and job insecurity. Moving towards a more ethical system requires that scientists advocate for structural change by making career choices that come with risks, many of which disproportionately impact ECRs. We illuminate major issues facing ECRs in Ecology and Evolution under the current publishing system, and propose a portfolio of actions to promote systemic change that can be implemented by ECRs and established researchers.
