Excited to share that I’ve been invited to join Plant & Cell Physiology’s Budding Editors Program (2025–2026)! I am honored to contribute to this fantastic journal and grateful for the opportunity to grow within the plant science community. 🥳

@KamounLab @biorxivpreprint Agree. But if they change them to bioRxiv, they'll go out of business 😂

@thsottiaux Why does Codex perform so smoothly for extended conversations in the client, while the ChatGPT client is quite laggy? The web version is particularly sluggish

The world needs more whistleblowers like “Geng Tongxue” (Student Geng).

Mark my words. This story is going global.

In January, I reviewed a Review for a crappy MDPI journal.

It was 100% AI, missing citations, etc. I sent a massive report, and the authors withdrew it.

Today, I see it published without a single change in another even crappier MDPI journal.

@TairanHe99 Time to update bilibili😶‍🌫️

Today I saw his post about graduating and joining OpenAI. As a long-time follower, I feel genuinely happy for him. It is rare and moving to witness someone grow step by step onto a larger stage.
Sincere congratulations to Tairan, and wishing him meaningful work ahead.

I’ve followed Tairan on Bilibili for over three years.

The first video I watched was “I Got into MIT, Harvard, and CMU! My CS PhD Application Journey.”

What struck me was not just the offers, but his energy, clarity, and deep self-awareness.

[Tairan He @TairanHe99]

some news: I’ve joined OpenAI.

After wrapping up my PhD in Robotics, I’m excited to keep working toward AGI in the physical world.

exciting journey ahead :)

Back then, I felt he would become someone truly outstanding. That video later encouraged me many times in my own research journey—especially during moments of doubt, pressure, or low motivation.
It reminded me to move forward with both ambition and self-knowledge.

New Article: "Rice roots recruit Bacillus via the secretion of heptadecanoic acid" https://t.co/17xQr8txpw

Rice plants facing fungal infection mobilize a soil-borne defence force via a previously unknown mechanism. MAPK inside.

I just published: Leave the red shirt out: Scientists, stop complicating the story

Scientists are brilliant at finding details. We are less brilliant at knowing which details to shut up about.

🚨Peer review is supposed to be thoughtful, rigorous, and carried out by experts who genuinely engage with the work. Lately, that’s not always what it feels like. We are being “ChatGPT-reviewed” not “peer-reviewed”.

Today, my group experienced this directly. What is frustrating is not just the review itself, but what it represents. This came from a highly respected journal.

We all know how difficult publishing already is. Adding layers of vague, artificial feedback that dictate how we should write, or even what experiments we should do, without even reading or understanding the work only makes things worse.

This is not about resisting new tools. It’s about responsibility. If we lose rigor and accountability in peer review, we risk weakening the foundation of scientific credibility.

We should not normalize this. It needs to be called out! 🚨

I made a Claude Code skill that generates conference posters 🛠️

Instead of a static PDF, it outputs a single HTML file — drag to resize columns, swap sections, adjust fonts, then give your layout back to Claude. 🔁

It started as a social experiment, but now it turns out there are quite a few interesting papers
