🔴 New preprint 🔴 This one is the first with someone from my lab as an author! We used previously identified metabolic rules to predict microbial community assembly along a temperature gradient (1/12).

A central challenge in community ecology is predicting the effects of abiotic factors on community assembly. In particular, microbial communities play a central role in the ecosystem, but we do not...

#evolution2023 Are you interested in spatial structure, microbes, multi-level selection, or community-level directed evolution? I am hiring a postdoc to use community-level selection to study spatial dynamics in microbes. Within that theme, there is tons of freedom

Happy #PhycologyFriday! We’re hoping someone might be able to help us with an ID..we’re geochemists and not phycologists, so we’re way out of our comfort zone- we were told this red algae genus might be Polysiphonia? Or maybe Gracilaria? Thanks for any and all help!! @jlagould

This would be with ~30 4th graders. They’re fired up about volcanoes and geysers and it would be so great if they could ask their questions. It would be an even bigger bonus if you have cool photos 🌋 🌋 🌋 please retweet @USGSVolcanoes @hawaiivolcNP @spearmicrobe 2/2

Hello #geoscience Twitter. My sister teaches 4th grade at a charter school in Camden, New Jersey. This week they are learning about volcanoes and geysers. The students are asking if they can talk to a scientist. We are looking for someone to do a 30 minute - 1 hour Zoom Q&A 1/2

Postdoc @SaraiFinks has a new pub out: textbook-like knowledge on plasmid patterns and processes. "plasmid trait content varied with both bacterial host taxonomy and environment and that, on average, half of the plasmids were potentially mobilizable" https://t.co/fjS1ZNDxIF

Plasmids are well known for their role in the transmission of antibiotic resistance-conferring genes. Beyond human and clinical settings, however, they disseminate many other types of genes, includ...
