R.I.P. Tom Lehrer If no one is going to post the story of the 84-year-old Lehrer writing a letter to 2 Chainz, I guess I'll have to

What happens before and after tenure? Check out our latest paper in PNAS PNASNews: Tenure and Research Trajectories Led by Giorgio Tripodi, postdoc in my lab. Fun collaboration with Xiangzheng, Yifan Qian, Dakota Murray, Ben Jones & Chaoqun Ni 1/n

Looks like it's going to rain. I better bring in my Boc groups

Interesting observation here. Novel and risky work has lower ‘impact’.
