We only get white cars now since we live in a hot climate. It makes a huge difference in how hot the car is after it’s been parked in the sun.

The new open access policy of NIH will take effect next week (July 1st). All NIH funded research 🔬🧪🧬accepted after July 1st must be open access upon publication. Worried about fees? 💸 Check out how IAI stacks up against other journals—you might be surprised. #OpenAccess #SciComm #Microbiology

Science has more than doubled our life expectancy, revolutionized our quality of life, and powered unprecedented technological advancement. But can we afford to take scientific progress for granted? What happens when science funding is slashed, diversity is suppressed, and pseudoscience takes hold?

Measles virus is closely related to the virus that caused rinderpest in cattle. Bayesian molecular clock-modeling suggests that measles originated as a zoonosis as a consequence of urbanization and diverged from rinderpest in the 6th century. The first clinical description is from Rhazes in 910.

I like the quarter system because I teach only grad students and think that short courses allow them to spend more time on their research and to take a variety of classes. But can see how your points could apply to large undergraduate lecture courses.

‘Silence is complicity’ — universities must fight the anti-DEI crackdown Higher-education establishments must not be bullied into abandoning their mission of diversity, equity and inclusion.

DEI is under attack, but the stakes are higher than many realize. Universities *must stand firm* in defending it. I lay out why in my latest piece for Nature.

Silence is complicity. Without DEI, we fail our students, our research, and our future.
