I mean you know the Tree if Life itself has evolved past a tree. I personally think a River is more apt. You can read more about that in #ConsiderthePlatypus by yours truly. And #TheTangledTree by @DavidQuammen
Up now @DavidQuammen AMAZING #author #sciencewriter and #thinker Books: #Spillover #TheTangledTree reviews impact of pathogens on #humanhistory @wildnetorg #SpringExpo
Interesting saga of publications on whether bdelloids (which reproduce asexually and yet evolved into over 400 different species) are packed with genes from other species due to horizontal gene transfer. #AcademicTwitter #TheTangledTree #evolution https://t.co/oJSGPuVnCH
Science explorer David Quammen said, βThe stability of species represented the bedrock of natural history.β
Horizontal Gene Transfer, the process of genetic material being passed and absorbed through symbiosis, proven a major factor in evolution of Tree of Life #TheTangledTree π΄
Thank goodness we have such amazing fellow human beings. Iβm listening to #TheTangledTree by David Quammen on @audible, and Iβm #inspired by the scope of science and life.
Just started reading #TheTangledTree by @DavidQuammen. I canβt shake my disappointment that in all of Chp 9 where #DNA structure, Watson and Crick are lauded there is not a single mention of #RosalindFranklin. This kind of omission keeps women forgotten in #science. π
This book. It sets the mind of this lay reader alight, cracking curiosity and a fascination in evolution wide open. Thanks @DavidQuammen. #TheTangledTree
π Congrats to our authors whose books have been longlisted for the 2019 #PENAwards!

@DavidQuammen on second reading of #TheTangledTree I am curious why you did not mention the βring of lifeβ metaphor & results of James Lake & Maria Rivera. The iconography and idea seem to fit so well. I guess the book is about Woese not Lake. Is there another reason?
Rereading @DavidQuammen βs #TheTangledTree in preparation for a class discussion tomorrow. I like the brief chapter structure. I wonder why/how you came to this structure? Is each a days work? Or was reader attention the purpose? Would love to share any insight.
Loved the contribution by the craggy Daniel Craig lookie-likey, Steve Grigsby, who's hidden away in Porton Down looking after all those precious NCTC bacterial cultures @NCTC_3000 #TheTangledTree
Fab blog complete with biblical quotes, tattoos & menorahs, Aristotle and Citizen Kane, convergent & divergent evolution, Carl Woese & Darwin, domains & archaea and accusations of gender bias in literature. No wonder there was no time to mention @NCTC_3000 !#TheTangledTree π€·ββοΈ
@MCBioRckvl Book club! Great discussion with faculty and students about the #thetangledtree #davidquammen @DavidQuammen @vkarpaka @ekastano @montgomerycoll @DrPollard_MC #biology #evolution #evolutionarybiology
Was joking around today with @plachetzki that it would be easiest to print out some transcriptomic sequences to share with me, then read in @DavidQuammenβs #TheTangledTree tonight that Woese first got the 16s rRNA sequence from Doolittle OVER THE PHONE. Eesh.
Thanks @DavidQuammen and @simonschuster - I know I should have read this already but just have not had chance yet ... but now I will ... #TheTangledTree #Evolution
