Is it âwinner-takes allâ when the simplest living things compete? Check out my fresh publication on phage coexistence in Science and a thread below𧔠science.org/doi/10.1126/scieâŠ
Iâm lucky to have had lots of help with my big postdoc project and a special thanks to @asanchez_lab, Kevin Foster, @PaulTurnerLab, @SchluterLab, @joshuagoldford, Odera Nweke, and @AsherLeeks

Postdocs: we want to start a NYC "Postdoc Night Science" forum where fellows meet monthly for a drink and fun practicing the creative process together with chalk talks and brainstorming. Sign up here: docs.google.com/forms/d/1V4_âŠ
@KelseyRMonson is helping and we need more volunteers!

I am absolutely delighted to be joining the University of British Columbia next year as an Assistant Professor @ZoologyUBC.
We will study social evolution in viruses.

Version accepted for publication. We found that microbes change their allocation to different metabolic pathways with increasing temperatures affecting carbon use and community assembly journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abâŠ
So fun to present at the Social Lives of Viruses Conference! Even if I cant fully explain this tongue microbiome image. đ Thanks @AsherLeeks and @sociovirology for organizing #socialviruses

Sharing the protocol we're using in the lab to rapidly & easily assemble combinatorial sets of microbial communities + script to adapt the protocol to different situations. Hope it's useful to others. @the100footpole @jdiazc9 @magdalenasrr @andrea_arrabal_

Does your department do a yearly or semesterly bioethics or research ethics seminar? Has it gotten dry and stale? Maybe youâre interested in having a bio/research ethics seminar in your department as a new thing? đ book me! Iâve done workshops for groups as large as 100 âșïž â at New Haven, CT
