I’ve handled the review of > 1000 papers at @nature. Over time, you notice aspects of presentation on which reviewers tend to comment. In the interests of minimizing hassles during review, I offer the following suggestions (a bit targeted to climate papers).

Attention Post-Docs!! We would love to invite you to The Salk Institute to give a talk about your research, meet Salk faculty, and create career-changing networks! The first ever Salk Rising Stars Symposium will be on April 10th. Apply here! Please RT! salk.edu/about/diversit….

MSU Plant Resilience Institute @msupri.bsky.social's 3-yr postdoc fellowship in any one of PRI labs (plantresilience.msu.edu/research/prila…) is open until Oct 20, 2023. A great training ground for future leaders in plant science. More info about the fellowship here (plantresilience.msu.edu/_assets/files/…)

Excited to share the lab’s first paper! 📷📷 Hopanoid lipids in Bradyrhizobium soil #bacteria promote their #symbiosis with soybeans. Work led by postdoc Huiqiao Pan Huiqiao Pan with great work from grad student Matt Lubin and former lab tech Ashley Shim journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.11…

Carnegie Science’s Arthur Grossman was selected as one of 120 new members of the National Academy of Sciences in recognition of distinguished and continuing achievements in original research. This is one of the highest honors bestowed within the scientific community.

Congratulations to Ned Ruby Ned Ruby on election to the American Academy of Arts & Sciences!! Ned has always distinguished himself with a combination of outstanding science and mentorship, and I feel fortunate to have trained with him. amacad.org/new-members-20…

Last chance to register. Don't miss our webinar on the future of nitrogen in crop production. us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

If want to write a research paper this weekend, save this mini-guide🔽. It's a practical guide to help you get started. All the best in your endeavors!

Great start to #nasnfc by @JeanMichelAne

Kicking off the 26th NASNFC meeting in Burlington today, keynote speaker @JeanMichelAne has a message for the nodulation community “experiments in the lab are ok, greenhouse good but move ASAP to the field to test ideas”. The best way to make real world impact. #NASNFC24

Dr. Rita Colwell, recipient of the esteemed ASM 2024 Lifetime Achievement Award, discusses her exceptional contributions to the field of microbiology with Dr. James Kaper. Learn about some of Dr. Colwell's great discoveries in Vibrio cholerae: asm.org/Podcasts/MTM/E… #ASMicrobe

I am so excited to meet and talk with YAs in person at ASM Microbe 2024. #ASMicrobe.

What’s the worst mistake ever made by science? Arturo Casadevall (Arturo Casadevall) and Ferric Fang (Ferric Fang) took to the #ASMicrobe Studio to discus good science, bad science and how to make it better—then headed to the ASM bookstore to sign their book exploring just that!

My lab is looking for a new postdoc to investigate genes and mechanisms underlying carotenoid metabolism and carotenoid signaling in plant development. Please RT! arabidopsis.org/news/jobs/view…

I’m proud to complete my 3-year term as ASM Young Ambassador. I connected with inspiring YAs worldwide and started a collaboration with @bioeyes Johns Hopkins University, bringing science to high school students globally. Apply YA by Nov 1. #ASMAmbassadors

It is great to connect with researchers in the field of Extracellular vesicles in Baltimore Kenneth W Witwer (he/him) AijunWang,PhD #ISEVxTECH2024

We are excited to announce our upcoming workshop designed to be interactive and beginner friendly. We will introduce Reverse Metabolomics, a novel approach to identifying microbial metabolites using mass spec. We will show YOU how to identify and categorize microbial metabolites!

Finally, our paper, "A Conserved Bacterial Genetic Basis for Commensal-Host Specificity," has been officially published in Science. "A conserved bacterial genetic basis for commensal-host specificity" science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

If you are interested in host-microbe interactions, you will like this amazing discovery from my colleagues.
