I'm proud to share that our article has been published in @NatureComms Our findings reveal fascinating patterns, explained by a theoretical model proposed over 100 years ago by the legendary J.B.S. #Haldane ⭐️ #Hybridization #Adaptation #Evolution

Hybrids have complex genomes that influence their adaptive potential. Bautista et al. show that yeast hybrids adapt slower than their parental species, primarily due to a reduced rate of loss of heterozygosity in key genes @carlabautistaro @landrychristian nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

It's an absolute scandal and tragedy that India is forced to spend $250m/year to provide access to the latest science to its people. A complete and total failure of global science leadership and of science writ large.

Indian gov't is buying a subscription to 13,000 academic journals, and then making them all available to "18 million students, faculty, and researchers" for free. The cost is $715 million over 3 years. It includes Elsevier, Nature, and AAAS. Have any other countries done this?
