I’m delighted that our paper on the Multicellularity Long Term Evolution Experiment (MuLTEE) has, at long last, been published. This paper establishes the foundations of what I’d like to work on for the rest of my career. 1/25 Free, full access link: rdcu.be/dbPA9

Fascinating new preprint on bioRxiv tackles a whale of a question: Whales are huge. So why don’t they get a ton of cancers? biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Yesterday, I was happy to welcome one of my former labmate and friend, @karini925 , to the Crick. A great day to catch up on science and other things! ☀️

And last but not least @karini925 has a platform talk Friday 4.30pm "High-throughput assessment of isoform-specific function by targeting exon-exon junctions in a CRISPR/Cas13 forward screen" in the "Splicing together the story" session!

This mind-blowing research in @Nature shows that machine learning can effectively guide enzyme optimization and help create enzymes that degrade all kinds of plastic waste in record time 🤯nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Plastic pollution endangers wild and human life more every day. Can we clean this up? What to do with the waste once collected? With the Ellington,@at_lynd, and Zhang labs, we’ve developed an enzyme that can break down PET plastic: FAST PETase. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… @EnergyUT

Female scientists at NYU feel utterly betrayed today, myself included. Where does Title IX start and end? If you’re willing to support the women at NYU, we would appreciate if this were spread far and wide. #WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM @NIH @HHMINEWS #Cancer #Science
