WANTED: Suggestions of field ecology/animal behavior papers that have just super great "Methods" sections. Everything is clearly explained and anyone could replicate it just from reading that section. Self-nominations are fine. (Using this for my "marine biology field research methods" course) 🧪🌎🦑

Let's talk about one of the most interesting questions in cancer biology: Why don't WHALES get MORE CANCER? This question is also called "Peto's Paradox" for epidemiologist Sir Richard Peto, who demonstrated the link between smoking and lung cancer, 1951. So why whales, in particular?

I am still blown away Metagenomic assembly is possible. A MAG or ‘Metagenome assembled genome’ is represents the total genomic information of an environmental system… the code of a whole ecosystem…

In short, the right people are working on this, they're not out to build a Twitter clone, they're out to reshape the web, and help us return to the original promise of an open platform, a sense of ownership, and the ability to share with each other on our own terms.

Doing some work this week modeling the metagenomics of the “Whale Carbon pump”. Whales process an enormous amount of nutrients, and there is an entire planktonic web of live based on processing their organic output. The carbon processing potential of this ‘whale pump’ is enormous…

Amazing coverage of an amazing paper! ‘Cap-stone’ species like sharks often have hard to predict 2nd and 3rd order benefits on ecosystems… …so the potential impact on the reefs here is of enormous concern to me.

One of the most impressive and impactful uses of an accelerometer in neurological medicine. Amazing that small changes this early in the illness process are detectable with good engineering and statistical science.

Spaghetti and meatballs, circa 75 million years ago. But really these are Uintacrinus socialis, relatives of starfish called crinoids. This particular species living in big floating groups in the sea, just bobbing and noodling along while mosasaurs and plesiosaurs chased ammonites for lunch. 🧪

Find myself reflecting on the COVID-19 tracking project. At the start of the pandemic I had a severe case of COVID-19, followed by even worse Long COVID symptomology... and it was at that moment I found the COVID-19 tracking project: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID_Track…

My favorite piece of science from last year is definitely DiffDock from MIT, which applies geometric deep learning to radically change how people approach molecular simulation problems. DiffDock is already radically democratizing access to molecular simulation for rare illness, and I love it! 🤗

If it's money in fine art, it's easily manipulated. Ignore the signals and you'll dodge others' games. This will all play out logically in time. Collect what you like, make what you want, and know most of everything else is a mirage.

Gotta love the California mussel! This little filter feeder is such a key part of our beloved intertidal zone here in California, that it actually inspired the original concept of a 'keystone' species... ...which is to say, a species whose connections to the rest of the ecosystem make it central.
