@OdedRechavi Why not do both? 😂

@ATinyGreenCell I find Threads to have more content I like. Not much science on any of these sites compared to the old Twitter though, so I use them all less.

@pdhsu 💯

@ATinyGreenCell Addgene usually excludes the gene of interest from the feature list/map. So annoying for users, super bad training data for AI.

[Phillip Kyriakakis @breakliquid]

@HarmitMalik Man, i feel that way with so many fewer requests than you. I can’t imagine how you do it.

[Phillip Kyriakakis @breakliquid]

@ATinyGreenCell most likely sequencing. I usually Sanger sequence and then find the homopolymers are okay.

[Phillip Kyriakakis @breakliquid]

@ATinyGreenCell I can also use my fluorometer! I can pick the bandwidth and wavelength. It is super easy to stick things in there!

[Phillip Kyriakakis @breakliquid]

@bielleogy @ATinyGreenCell I do him most start off with some integrity and most bad actors learn to be bad. So there are many examples you hear about of people that go from bad to good. That may also be bc of negative bias in our stories and memories too.

@ProteiosTech I’d love to learn more about it!

[Phillip Kyriakakis @breakliquid]

@jwsal sure

You have to be kidding me:

@com_ecology @tomkXY One crazy part is that senior PIs have so much less to gain by a Nature paper (or another Nature paper!), but they keep up the system and expectations. Jr researchers are dependent on them for promotions in most places, or to even get funding and keep their jobs.

@abcairns @MJCliffe * for the first six months, then 29,9% APR 😝

[Phillip Kyriakakis @breakliquid]

@haesleinhuepf Its a big part of the answer, but more specifically senior PIs need to not submit to Nature et al, and keep the manuscript as a preprint first. They are the ones that can usually afford these fees and they set the example.

[Phillip Kyriakakis @breakliquid]

@tomkXY If only it was that simple. It takes many of the senior PIs to do that first and normalize it before others can do that and still get promoted.

@ambulanzen @LingfengGe “because our industry is, to a large extent, resilient to economic downturns as investment in research and learning continues.”

Actually because its a monopoly, its resistant.
