@PatSchloss @lucacozzuto Thanks, @PatSchloss! Great addition to your channel, Snakemake is amazing! It's great being able to help people reproducibly analyze their data. :)

@NPR caught me off guard with this one. Well played 👏👏👏

When Trump strengthened lobbying rules for former administration workers in 2017, he hailed it as a fulfillment of his campaign promise to "drain the swamp."

In the final hours of his presidency, he apparently became a wetlands conservationist.

"My dearest Ruth, you are the only person I have loved in my life."

In 2016, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg recited a handwritten letter that her late husband, Marty, had drafted to her when he was ill at a hospital in 2010. Listen here:

@findinghemo I feel like I'm in shock right now. She was such an incredible person and always stood up for what's right. This is truly the end of an era.

@microkaitlin They had corn everything there. I distinctly remember getting corn shaped suckers amongst other corn related food lol

[Will Close @WilliamLClose]

@microkaitlin If you like corn, you should check out the Corn Palace in South Dakota. It's one the strangest places I've been lol

Check out our new paper! Programming can be a very individual experience but having the right forum to share, learn, and discuss makes all the difference. Code club played a big role in helping me learn to program and I can't recommend it enough!

Lots of hard work by @MadCientista to show bacterially-induced IBD is sufficient to allow C. diff infection, no antibiotics necessary! Really excited to see how this model helps us further understand host-microbiome interactions!

[Lisa Abernathy Close, Ph.D. @MadCientista]

Why is the incidence of C. difficile colonization and infection higher in those of us with #IBD? I don’t know, but @UM_MICHR awarded me a translational research fellowship to find out. I’ll never forget the moment I 1st saw mice with IBD colonized with C. diff, no antibiotics! 👇🏼

@a2binny @MadCientista and I love making pasta with ours too! Have you tried the pasta extruder attachment? We've only made bucatini so far but I definitely recommend it!

@ByronJSmith @BioRadLifeSci Still in Ann Arbor. I was in the process of negotiating at a local biotech company (Celsee) and they were acquired by Bio-Rad during that time. The office is only a few mins from where we live 👍

[Will Close @WilliamLClose]

Officially accepted a Computational Biologist position at @BioRadLifeSci! Shout-out to everyone at UM who made my time memorable and made this opportunity possible! Thank you, all!

@MGoBacteria @CurrenAshley @UMPDA1 Thanks, Jay! I'm definitely going to miss being part of such a great community!
