Oh yeah! Did you know a significant fraction of those #KEGG metabolites are volatile!? 🤓 What!?

Maybe you'll like this R package if you want to see if your metabolites are volatile too...? 🥺

Our volcalc paper is OUT headed by @DrLauraMeredith, today, perfect for #AGU23!!!

New preprint alert! In Translation as a Biosignature, we discuss how ribosomes and agnostic translational machinery may serve as a biosignature and demonstrate how solid-state nanopore instrumentation can detect these molecular features. 🧬🪐 @c_e_carr

Ever been curious 🧐 about the volatility of a compound in that KEGG pathway? Check out the new R package: volcalc!

Exciting work coming from my lab headed by @DrLauraMeredith feeling so fortunate that my little logo made it to a real R package! 🥹

[Dr. Linnea K. Hernandez @Linneakh80]

New paper out in @NatureMicrobiol! Combining SIP and multi-omics, we found increased emissions of 'leaky' volatile microbial metabolites during drought due to increased production and buildup as carbon cycling efficiency and consumption decreased.

[Dr. Linnea K. Hernandez @Linneakh80]

Out latest #B2WALD paper is out!! We found that three plant species responded differently to drought with varying impacts on rhizosphere microbes and metabolites. Read more here: https://t.co/ypr4XTgqa0

@CGerleinSafdi @That_Astro_Chic @leif_fredericks @NASA I reached out to their “questions” email and was told that (at least for planetary) they anticipate announcements today or tomorrow! Don’t know anything about Earth Sci though D:

I am devastated by today’s tragic shooting at our very own University of Arizona. As we mourn the senseless loss of our colleague, our entire community must pull together to support each other, and especially those struggling in response to this tragedy. https://t.co/FyYhjnKfpn

funny how academic institutions always tell us that “PhD students are paid a decently livable wage” when most of my colleagues are donating plasma, door dashing and even taking toilet paper form their labs because they can’t afford buying it in bulk.

Earth has warmed significantly from 1880 to 2021. 🌡️ 🌏

Red spirals in this visualization indicate years with warmer than average temperature.

Temperatures are based on the @NASAGISS GISTEMP v4 climate model. https://t.co/wjfUqVCVkP
