We've developed a simple tool to reorient complete microbial genomes to begin with conventional start genes - originally dnaA for bacteria, but also for plasmids, phages & custom genes @viji112 @BeardyMcFace @susiegriggo_ @BhavyaPapudeshi

End of an era, using the lab clean as an excuse to clear my lab bench and drawers - officially no more lab work for me at Cardiff
Next month will be my office desk!

Aircon in our lab is basically non existent at the moment and the corner of the lab by the windows is over 32°C.
So the 30°C incubator is actually COOLING to achieve temperature - definitely need to report this to facilities...

Fantastic review comment that Ken Nealson received for a submitted paper at the start of his career
"I can't find anything wrong with the data, but the conclusion can not be correct - bacteria don't do this"
I would have loved to include this at the front of my thesis

Ken’s simple explanation of electrotrophy, next to chemotropy and phototrophy… again, deep sea hydrothermal vents are natural niche for electrotrophy = geoelectricity
