Our celebration of microbiology also made it to the cover of this issue and we hope you will find yourself in it, too.
This one comes with a great data analysis and many soothing insights into ecological and evolutionary drivers of gene transfer between microbes and its implications over time. Quite an excellent work by @marija_dmit, @jhcepas, @luispedrocoelho et al:

The joy, the curse, and the importance of writing code for life scientists.
Our new blog post walks you through how the tiniest of coding mishaps can lead to an avalanche of misleading functional insights into your microbes.

Move over, Norse Gods – Marvel at new Asgard archaea named instead (@luisarchaeota) for the Puerto Rican goddess of the soil, Atabeya. Atabeyarchaeia is a new member of the lineage now widely believed to have given rise to eukaryotes – that is fungi, algae, trees and us.
@tonyrwalker1 We have a micro Raman facility here at Stony Brook and regularly analyze microplastic samples. We’d be happy to help, but I am unable to send you a private message for some reason
