@XFilesAesthetic @Super_Sodiq I always imagine if fights aren't allowed, skates and sticks would be used more in frustration. A fight is honorable, two-hand swinging a stick at someone's neck is dishonorable. Fights will never leave the game of hockey.

@ayeejuju I'll fall for this just once. Explain mitochondria.

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

Excited for this to come to my house

New album is out now on vinyl in your local fine record shop like @SonicBoomMusic! great work on this window display 👏

#ExM has transformed how we perceive the microbial diversity all around us. Some gorgeous critters from the @EMBLHeidelberg pond - DNA red, centrin yellow, tubulin gray, images courtesy @F_Mikus.

Bonus points if you can identify at least 4!

Confused about Stramenopiles, but too shy to ask? Fear not and read further a piece from @dasa_jirsova now out in ISME

Anyone have a Rotifer and Vorticella in one video? Any other good protist/animal comparisons?

[Igor Adameyko @adameykolab]

A vertebrate and an invertebrate. 500+ millions of years of evolutionary distance.

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

LOL.

[kache @yacineMTB]

the existence of "experts" is a myth

the fact that certain skills are "deep" is a meme. you can learn anything in one or two weeks. the only thing that exists is depth

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

@beckettws This is amazing!!

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

Is there a "go shopping with @dieworkwear lottery"? I don't gamble, but I'd put in $100. I bet we could generate $100k pretty easily. $50k to charity. $25k to derek guy and $25k to travel and a new wardrobe.

@fburki Sub 60 is really quite low... should have SELMA trees that suggest this outcome as well?

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

@DacksLab1 Must be Dacks lab happy hour...

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

Love the orange stuff.

Our latest paper @NatureMicrobiol: converting waste into delicious food using fungi. We studied a traditional Indonesian food and discovered a mold domesticated for waste-to-food conversion. Amazing international collab involving scientists, chefs. https://t.co/a3FMZLJZff

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

@fburki Maybe they just have more bones to pick?

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

@jim_bouldin @MicrobiomDigest I disagree. It's the motivation to cheat that leads to image manipulation. The point I'm trying to make is that even with image verification processes, I'm confident I could cheat without anyone knowing. I don't because of my values. There will always be ways to cheat.

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

I honestly don't see this as a concern. Any unethical scientist has been able to make convincing data for decades or centuries. Sure, it's easier now. Finding ways to police fraud isn't and has never been the solution. We need to prevent and disincentivize scientific fraud.

[Elisabeth Bik @MicrobiomDigest]

AI can be used to make convincing looking fake data.
There is no way we can distinguish real from fake anymore.
It is safe to assume that genAI has already resulted in many fake papers. Scientific publishing is not prepared for this.

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

@jim_bouldin @MicrobiomDigest Maybe jailtime would be a big enough disincentive?

[Jeremy Wideman @evocellbio]

@MicrobiomDigest It's so annoying... can we publicly shame them more?
