Decided to join the crowd that is migrating to the other side, you can find me at https://t.co/HPwa99zclL 🦋

Excellent opportunity for a PhD position in microbiome engineering at NTNU with my colleague @WeissbrodtLab 🙂

Being invited to peer-review for a journal after a desk rejection at the same journal:

"So you're telling me you don't trust me when i say 'this paper' is good enough for your journal, but you trust me when i say 'that paper' is good enough for your journal?"

@Zach_Burcham Good question, how to define the undefined? 🙂 The only reliable solution (I think) would be to run a metabolomic analysis of the medium composition.

[Daniel Machado 🦋 @dan1elmachado.bsky.social @randomdan1el]

Every time we try to model something and we ask the wet-lab people what's the medium composition... 😅

[Pedro Veliça @pedrovelica]

@Caroline_Bartma made a cartoon about that exact topic a few years ago :D

@MartinJLercher "Thank you for the invitation, but I have already submitted my manuscript to Cell Science and Nature after being rejected by Science Nature and Cell..."

Why only have equal contribution statements for authors that contributed the most? 🤔

Author 1, Author 2, Author 3(*), Author 4(*), Author 5

(*) These authors contributed equally to this work. Both barely looked at the paper.

@EvolvedBiofilm @CurrentBiology @thuvpnguyen As usual The Simpsons had already predicted this. 😆

Our European project Cell4Chem created a really cool video explaining how we engineer microbial communities for converting lignocellulose waste into target chemicals! 🦠 + 💻 = 🧪

[Cell4Chem @Cell4C]

Thrilled to share our short explainer video introducing the #European research project #Cell4Chem:

"Us versus Them" is the most dangerous concept that exists in humankind.

Dehumanize the other side and you can justify anything.

At the end of the day every war is just humans killing humans for territory.

[Eylon Levy @EylonALevy]

This is the difference between us and them. We know who we’re fighting for.
