@HelenFa92229708 Science publishing is done - they just don't know it yet.

[Michael 英泉 Eisen @mbeisen]

I disagree completely. The fight we’re having is about not about whether society values science as a concept, it’s about whether society values science as it currently exists as an enterprise. And the way to demonstrate that is not to circle the wagons but to show that we are aware of our flaws and are ready to fix them.

@AdrianoAguzzi @BjarkeJensen4 I know. Indeed, some people would not like to work with you if you were to tell them you won't pay for high APCs, but publishing a paper with you as last author is probably more valuable in itself than publishing in a glam journal. There wouldn't be any sacrifice.

[Diego H @diegoharta]

@AdrianoAguzzi @BjarkeJensen4 Thanks! I basically try to convince people that the current publishing system is unlikely to change if we continue to try to publish in Nature despite their APCs. I am committed not to try (as first or last author). I am a senior postdoc, so no alumni yet.

[Diego H @diegoharta]

@AdrianoAguzzi @BjarkeJensen4 Although I am sure this is an honest excuse, you could very well tell your students and postdocs, prior to hiring them, that you are no longer paying for these exagerated APCs. You'd still have a great team, I'm sure, and could contribute to change from your valuable position.

And here is my contribution to the Guardian and @hopenothate's extensive report. If you know the history of eugenics, and scientific racism, it is galling to see it repeat and rhyme over and over again. Which is why it needs exposing.

Scientific editorials cannot be a platform for racists to spread their hatred.

@PNASNews , @CambridgeUP, @ElsevierConnect, @SpringerNature must react and withdraw all articles written by authors linked to the racist plot uncovered by The Guardian.

Our study, "Reconstruction of the human amylase locus reveals ancient duplications seeding modern-day variation," has just been published in Science. This thread will provide a brief overview of how gene duplications have shaped modern variation in the amylase locus.

[Diego H @diegoharta]

@evobioclio Congratulations, Clio and all involved! This is very nice. Thanks for the thread!

[Dr Adam Rutherford @AdamRutherford]

Ok, here we go: Much of my work concerns the history and return of scientific racism. I’ve written extensively about attempts to resurrect the shuffling corpse of
race science and eugenics for many years. Bigotry dressed up as biology. 1/n

Clownfish evolution is so extraordinary that it can only be described with the voice of David Attenborough. Watch until the end—you won’t regret it! https://t.co/IjVY98GTiJ

Widely observed negative correlation between recombination rate and TE abundance is usually interpreted as recombination rate being the "cause," influencing the efficacy of selection purging TEs. Yet, our recent study "flipped" this causality! https://t.co/skk0F52uAP… (1/5)

[Graham Coop @Graham_Coop]

My lab read this paper https://t.co/6zzITMjCr2 for journal club, and had some thoughts on the strong claims made about the number of signals of selection found. 1/

The evolution of this amazing creature can only be appropriately described with a voice such as that of Sir David Attenborough @DavidALifeFilm who has been an inspiration to all of us who study and marvel at nature. Special thanks to @AntoineScience for making this possible. 2/2
