Can principles from physics predict the behavior of worms, fish, and even humans? Join this conversation with Dr. Antonio Costa to learn how techniques from fluids can connect animal movements to their ecology and evolution!

What are the dynamics of #recombination in bacterial populations? Zhiru Liu & @benjaminhgood use #metagenomics to quantify the recombination landscape in ~30 species of human #GutBacteria, revealing widespread variation within/across species #PLOSBiology https://t.co/hSrTa0p1j1

One of my intellectual idols passed away yesterday. Nobody has managed to integrate the history and philosophy of biology as effectively and as elegantly as Evelyn Fox Keller. Her work from the 90s/00s is unrivalled and has long served as a model and inspiration for my own. RIP.

#Scientists recently discovered a bacterium that is ~10,000 times longer than the average #bacteria! Read here what makes this bacteria unique.

Pls retweet🙏🙏My new group at UCSD Physics is looking for postdocs to join us. Our lab combines experiments with creative data analysis to understand how symmetry, order and dynamics emerge in living matter https://t.co/n2N3D84mdz

The deadline to register for the GRS and GRC is fast approaching! Please check out the fantastic lineup of speakers and topics and register! (if it said registrations were closed earlier, we just increased the number of attendees)

A primary reason we are striking is bc grad students and postdocs at UCSD are facing a housing crisis. Instead of addressing this, UCSD is constructing vanity projects that remain unused and inaccessible to the community. We need fair wages NOW #FairUCnow https://t.co/Nu7uEDiKJK

[UAW Local 5810 @UAW5810]

In an update to staff, UCOP blamed the slow progress in negotiations on 'The UAW's apparent social justice agenda' which consists of 'housing, transportation, and parity for international scholars and researchers.' RT if you support the UAW social justice agenda!

[UC Faculty Assoc. @uc_faculty]

Our answers to Senate Faculty frequently asked question about what can do around the UAW strike. #FairUCNow

Will #ScienceTwitter🐦 -> #ScienceMastodon🐘 work?

The response to this was massive & my #Mastodon has gone from a quiet void to a science party in just 3 days!

Many are worried about servers, network effects & losing followers

Follow these tricks to make it work for you! 🧵

Wow, thank you to @QuantaMagazine's Carrie Arnold for the fantastic piece on my recent work with @oxcordero @AliEbrahimi_MIT Yuya Sato @ben_roller Gray Chadwick and @OrphanANME 'Ocean Bacteria Reveal an Unexpected Multicellular Form' https://t.co/m4vI0lDNDc via @QuantaMagazine

Recruiting postdocs to work at the intersection of phage therapy and evolutionary biology. Topics include coevolutionary phage training, phage-bacterial interaction networks (PBINs), and predicting PBINs from genome sequences. E-mail [email protected] with CVs or other inquiries.

[Matteo Mori @matteomori87]

New #preprint out 🥳🥳! And one of which I am particularly proud. Introducing: Functional Decomposition of Metabolism (FDM), with the awesome @aHoi_Ching . Here is the mandatory summary thread 🧵 [1/10]

Reminder that applications to the GRS to give a talk are due this Sunday. Please apply if you are a post-doc or PhD student studying biology quantitatively (no stochasticity is actually required in the talk!)

[Jonas Cremer @jonasbcremer]

Excited to announce our focus session in quantitative cell physiology at the 2023 APS March meeting in Las Vegas, organized together with Terence Hwa. Contribute and submit your abstracts until October 20th.

[Jie Xiao @JieXiao_Lab]

Physics is stochastic but biology is deterministic? Or, biology is stochastic but physics is deterministic? If you are puzzled by the questions, look no further but at the 2023 GRC Stochastic Physics in Biology https://t.co/yr39CPTQ8Q. Join us!
