For @BioDesignCenter at @BU_Tweets fall symposium, we'll do lab Family Feud. We've created a survey. Please circulate as widely as possible among bio researchers. Can have non-bio folks, but it will throw off responses to things like "Name a temperature" forms.gle/rYNVhjhJs1ievp…

Sometimes a paper takes 6 years, 75 days at sea, 900 metagenomes (700 in this paper), two new coding languages, and many fantastic collaborators. I am very proud of this one. ❤️ nature.com/articles/s4139…

@kaitochondria It's yet weirder because Noel Fielding has done a lot of funny stuff in other venues.

@evornithology @eLife I actually read the reviews in eLife pretty often, especially if it's a paper from a field I don't know. Sometimes they tell you more about the significance of the paper than the paper itself, but that largely reflects problems with how papers are written.

One potential flaw in the new @eLife model: who the hell wants to read reviews? I just want to read the paper and make up my own mind. Reviews are boring as hell.

Are there ads for the Vatican elsewhere or is the Holy See targeting the lingering Roman Catholic populace in Boston?

@EllenFlem @MBTA The train CRAWLED inbound from Quincy to JFK. No announcements or anything. From weekend service hours to sub-par. If trains are already spread out, WHY are they getting bottlenecked? Late again for work.

@weinberz 4 years in SD owned car but commuted via bus. Doable, but severely restricts where you can live. Have to spring for rideshare often when buses are infrequent. For USCD, I think it's much better now that they extended the trolley to UTC. No car at all would be miserable I think.

there is drama in the Dunkin world right now… daily Dunkin drinkers are boycotting because they revamped their app rewards program and devalued points. the Dunkin subreddit is fuming! I fear the brand is no longer the people’s coffee.

@chicaScientific I was told Stirling are really good so I shelled out some extra money for one. In 2.5 years, we've had two problems, one of which required shipping it out of state for repair. People tell me PHC is the only remaining good brand.

Hey y'all, I know there's probably a thread somewhere on -80C freezers to avoid - can someone point me to it or chime on on best/worst of 'em?

@toettch I find that part to be very tough early on--that there's often little to no data. Much of what I wrote for the first couple years felt kind of made up?

It's hard not to take some of these early-career rejections personally. The proposals are short & don't involve lots of prelim data, so it feels like they're evaluating *you*. For me, things got better after papers + data + time helped us refine our thinking about big questions.

@CterminiPhD "So we did the experiment, and we did observe that" / click to graph with 6 different conditions, vague axis labels, no further explanation. So frustrating.

Giving an inclusive research presentation means presenting enough background to get audience members on the same page. Walk people through the data - don’t assume anyone knows what they’re looking at on your graphs. Summary: Less data, more background.

@evornithology It's a very southern rock solo also: fast, long, pentatonic, and exuberant.

I don't care for the look of this building, but it's useful for knowing where Union Sq, Somerville is from a distance and, I must admit, I am often shocked at where it is when I see it!
