Virology, evolution, genomics, systems biology, and computational biology. All at once.
How to deal with the multiscale nature of evolution, which displays different time scales of change? We need to replace classic genotype spaces with multiscapes. Here's a great paper by my friend Susanna Manrubia and coworkers @mncn-csic.bsky.social rsob.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/royo... …

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Predicted infections with phage/host mutation models
Delighted to share this paper out via Virus Evolution:
academic.oup.com/ve/advance-a...
in which we develop and assess a quantitative method to infer phage and bacterial mutations driving changes in infection phenotypes arising in coevolutionary dynamics.

A reminder for any academics who needs to hear it: there are SO many ways to serve the scientific community. Choose the ones that fulfill you, bring you joy (even if they are hard), and are in line with your values.
It’s okay to say no/ resign/change tracks! And put your efforts/energy elsewhere.
Policy makers, journalists, and the public should consider what it means if the incoming head of NIH failed to design, execute, interpret, and communicate a public health study in a critical moment in the pandemic, and continued to double-down on the interpretation.

Are the major evolutionary transitions describable as phase transitions, as in statistical physics? A great example of this is the transition to eukaryotic cells, as shown by this excellent paper by Jordi Bascompte and co-workers europepmc.org/api/fulltext...

I want to know everyone's experiences publishing in:
* MDPI journals
* Hindawi journals
* Frontiers journals
Not stories about what you heard, please, but your literal experience. what happened to you.
Editors of said journals particularly welcome.
RT this. A lot.
