My painting got featured at the 'Student Art Spotlight' by the Moss Arts Center @ArtscenteratVT This was the first time ever that I publicly shared my art. Feels good to be recognized. 😋

We received outstanding participation and engagement during our recent codeathon to combat antimicrobial resistance (AMR), co-hosted by @NIAIDNews! We had 60 participants that formed 10 teams with 10 countries represented. Learn more about their work: ow.ly/OqVO50TJf27

SOSP attendees, @suyash_sg is looking for an academic job this year, and Levy Deng, Timothée Zerbib for PhD positions (all attending). Hire them! You won't regret it. Though Suyash might force you to write scripts in shell ;-).

So @nanopore discovered something a few days ago - and it has to do with light. And they posted this image (sorry, too good not to share off the community). Yes, that’s 469% increased output. So, we decided to give it a shot and …

16hrs to write a whole grant?! If this is real then Universities should have 24hr long "Grantathons" for new profs so they can collaborate with such experienced profs and submit full grants together.

Replying to @SashaGusevPosts
How long does it take to write a grant? R01s are 13 pages of science: 3-4 are bespoke (say, 6-8 hours); the rest are aims that can be repurposed from content intended for a manuscript (another 6-8 hours). So ~16 hours dedicated time per grant.

What if you could image 🔬cells and then choose which ones to sequence 🧬? What if you could go back and image 🔬cells that you previously sequenced 🧬? Now you can 🔬 then 🧬 then 🔬 cells again with Light-Seq! nature.com/articles/s41592-0… Let’s dig in 🧵.

Bohemian rhapsody for postdocs: Is this a real job? Or more like a PhD? Caught in short contracts No chance of stability Open your eyes Look up to PIs and see I'm just a postdoc I get no sympathy Because I'm easy come, easy go Stress is high Pay is low

I wanted to write a "starting a new position" tweet but instead this is how I'm stuck at home, missing my first week of internship (all the cool social events), because someone in the house I moved in just tested positive for COVID!

The housemate is quarantined in their room and have barely any symptoms. And I have been testing negative so far (fingers crossed)!

I agree, great publishing experience with @MicrobioSoc ; the paper looks beautiful due to figures by @parul142 and @TLowePower . Thank you, @TLowePower for your leadership getting this done and published and all great co-authors including @CaitilynAllen and @maf2371

What is the best method for taxonomic profiling in long-read shotgun #metagenomic datasets? We put several to the test in a new study, using @PacBio #HiFi and @nanopore data!!! Awesome collaboration with @ctitusbrown and @saltyscientist: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…. 🧵1/8
