It was an absolute pleasure working with everyone HLSCC !! Thank you for having me! I can’t wait to see what new things we’ll discover together.

Another Planktoscope spotted in wild - today at Virgin Islands Community college. Open hardware is an amazingly effective way to amplify science. If you are a “new wave” science funder - please think about supporting open hardware tools. Happy to fill in details for anyone.

📣#MTTM C-CoMP Postdoc Fellow Dr. Nicole Lynn-Bell is a member of Bryndan Durham's Lab FLORIDA and investigates how changes to light and nutrient regimes impact marine phytoplankton and bacteria interactions. Thanks to Lisa Coe for the great photo!

My favourite discovery ever has just come online. Can I please tell you about some seriously wacky molecular biology? The story starts with a reverse transcriptase that SOMEHOW defends bacteria from viruses. (👇 I recommend sound ON for the video 🎹) 1/

New paper out in collaboration with Natalie Cohen @nekton4plankton and others. First section by Clio the BGC AUV clio AUV combining multi-omics and micronutrients. Biogeoscapes

Thrilled to be part of the newest AccelNet Biogeoscapes Early Career Fellows cohort!

🎉 Please join us in celebrating today’s announcement from MacArthur Foundation that Benjamin Van Mooy, a #WHOI Sr. Scientist & Interim Vice President for Science & Engineering, has been awarded a #MacArthurFellowship, also known as a #geniusgrant. 📲 Learn more: go.whoi.edu/van-mooy-award

Seems like a good time for a list some of my favorite truly #OpenSource #proteomics tools. In no particular order: 1. Comet - The Sequest algorithm for everyone. github.com/uwpr/comet

How many different chemical reactions occur in a single cell at the same time ? Hundreds? Thousands ?

It's been such a pleasure to be part of Chemical Currencies of a Microbial Planet (C-CoMP)!

It was an honor to be included in this cool initiative to highlight the obvious, yet overlooked role microbes can play in the climate change crisis. Thanks Raquel Peixoto and Jack A Gilbert (he/him/his)

Cool postdoc opportunity at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) whoi.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/WHOI-External/…

🚨New paper alert🚨Review paper on “The history of Earth’s sulfur cycle” is out now Nature Reviews Earth & Environment 🌈 ! Link here: rdcu.be/d2vpe ! #sulfur #earthhistory #geology #biogeochemistry

Amazing !

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to put pressure on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research

I’m very excited to finally share the results of a passion project that has been on my mind for nearly a decade. You can find the pre-print below, but what follows is the saga of how this project came to be:

An excellent letter by Dennis Hazelett in Nature Biotechnology: nature.com/articles/s4158… And below is my attempt to motivate people in my group and others elsewhere to read it. Putting it here as well in case it may work on you, too :p
