Just out! Our manuscript (led by Pauline Lanting and @robertwarmerdam.bsky.social) on the generation of pharmacogenetic passports from low-cost GSA oligonucleotide array data.

DOGE is directly involved in the NIH grant terminations. Metadata on one of the grant termination letters says that someone named Joshua Hanley authored it. Hanley is listed on an alleged list of DOGE employees leaked yesterday.

We hakken de knoop door: De Speld vertrekt van Bluesky en gaat definitief naar X. ‘Sfeer van constructieve, opbouwende dialoog druist in tegen alles waar wij voor staan’

We found something interesting in the evolution of plant microbiota. It is under review and we published the preprint today. Avi Bograd from my lab analyzed the genomes of 38,912 bacteria and identified a clear depletion of all MGE types in plant-associated bacteria vs. non-plant associated bacteria

We strongly suggest that academic publishers and other platforms that host research rapidly implement a Share to Bluesky button for their articles. Here's how: docs.bsky.app/docs/advance... #AcademicSky #HigherEd #Altmetrics
