Can anyone out there help interpret this label? '________ Creek Aug 4 1933 Colorado Helen James' Brick, Prick, Park? I know that Helen/James lived in Boulder, but were in Crowley CO that day. Maybe taking the train? @EntoTranslator @GilletteMuseum #entomology #colorado

Are you familiar with the printer ink business model? Sell a printer for a modest profit because you'll make the real money from forcing people to buy your ink? IT's also known as the razor blade business model. Danaher sells its diagnostic machines at a small profit and then
There is a corporation called @DanaherCorp with 8 billion dollars in annual profits. Much of that profit is made by price-gouging the world's poorest countries for life-saving tuberculosis tests. Danaher has done this in the dark for 13 long years. Today, we shine the light.

New paper just published in ISD on long-horned bees. We also discuss some challenges of dealing with samples with extremely degraded DNA for UCE phylogenomics (#museomics) and introduce a new pipeline for UCE curation (CURE) @SysEB_Entsoc @eabalmeida @MuseumGenomics @mmlopezu
Amazing new bee phylogenomics pub led by lab alum @savanychapis. Felipe explores how to deal with low-quality data in analyses and presents a comprehensive work on long-horn bee phylogenetics and systematics. The new CURE pipeline is very useful. https://t.co/P9U5a2EYY5
