deep-time evolution, phylogenetics, anaerobic protists, the tree of Life. Science depends on vigorous respectful debate and evidence-based reasoning.

This is an extremely exciting paper!!.
New preprint from our lab: “Rare microbial relict sheds light on an ancient eukaryotic supergroup” by Marek Valt et al. introduces Solarion arienae, an interesting protist from newly characterized supergroup. Read the full preprint 👉

What is the 'state-of-the-art' set of bioinformatic tools to do metabolic pathway prediction for eukaryotic genomes (microbial eukaryotes)? Is it still KEGG Mapper. what are some others?.

This is reality that is nuttier than parody.
The entire point of my creation of this X account is to advocate for the Libertarian faction of the Alberta Independence movement. Maximum freedom. Hard work. Lowest taxation. Nature preservation. Neutrality in world politics. No NATO. No wars. No mass visas. That is the recipe

Brilliant and important work by the incredible @nooryoussef03 !!!.

This US hedge-fund owned newspaper couldn't print more mendacious propaganda. Apparently putting a price on carbon emissions is a "climate obsession". Are we in 1980 or in 2025?.
'The Liberals will have drop climate obsessions to stave off a referendum in 2026'.

RT @maxfawcett: Now seems like a good opportunity to re-up this thread. What has Canada ever done for Alberta? A lot, actually.

So they don't 'need' the electricity from Ontario? If so, then Drug Ford can just turn it off and nobody will complain right? Oh wait. he had a tantrum last time that was threatened. but why? It's not like they need the electricity. so puzzling.
Nothing says “serious world leader” like throwing a tantrum on social media minutes before meeting the leader of one of our closest allies.

More fuckwittery.
President Donald Trump today asked Congress to make massive and unprecedented cuts to the 2026 budgets of major federal science agencies.

The CPC needs to stop with right-wing populism and emulating the Trumpists.
Conservatives have lost the last 4 elections to the Liberals. The CPC will be looking for their 5th leader in 10 years. This party needs a serious makeover, having Pierre Poilievre as your leader was an epic failure. Bring back the Progressive Conservative Party.
