Replying to @graemepaton007
@graemepaton007 kicking off the @QUADRATdtp annual science meeting. Exciting to catch up with what our students have achieved so far... and great to be back in person.

We have been ranked the best University in Scotland for subject performance in Environment/Ecology, as well as 9th in the UK and 66th globally in the US News & World Report rankings! It’s wonderful to have our staff recognised for the excellent work they do #natureonourdoorstep

Our Director of Research @Piertney kicking off the first in the series of @UoABioSci Research related events over the festive period. #uoasbs #natureonourdoorstep #universityofaberdeen #abdn

UCL has defined their #researchculture
Rare (and excellent) in being explicit
Staff should:
*Publish as registered reports
*Follow reporting guidelines
*Make data and code open
*Write detailed metadata
*Put drafts on preprint servers
*Publish null results
*Do replication studies
Great to see @ucl throwing institutional weight behind open, reproducible research practices including @RegReports, & stating that "Making research open is a core part of research transparency, and open research practices are rewarded in promotion decisions"

Our OrthoFinder 2 paper is now out! A big thanks for all the support and encouragement we've had from everyone. Our goal was to extend OrthoFinder to provide a complete, automatic gene tree based ortholog analysis that only required gene sequences as input. @Steve__Kelly

HISTORY IS MADE! 🤯
For so long, so many thought it was impossible, but @EliudKipchoge becomes the first human to run a sub two-hour marathon.

Exactly 105 years ago today, Martha, the very last passenger pigeon known (an "endling" as they call last members of a species), died at the Cincinnati Zoo.
There were once 3-5 BILLION individuals of this species in America. You know the lesson.
