Happy to see our new paper led by @marangureng.bsky.social on metabolic signatures of high temperature adaptation in diatoms published! 🎉 In collaboration with @suleles.bsky.social, Angel Diz, María Huete-Ortega, Andy Allen and Naomi Levine.

It's out! Microbes are declining in size with warming…right? Marshall et al. digs into data, scaling, and theory to find the answer is messier, and more consequential, than we assumed. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

“Bigelow Laboratory's Center for Aquatic Cytometry is the best place to learn about flow cytometry, and the knowledge and equipment there cannot be matched," wrote one Introduction to Flow Cytometry participant from 2024. "If you use flow cytometry, this is the best way to learn from the experts!"

I am shocked to see this language from the NSF. “The U.S. National Science Foundation's Fiscal Year 2027 Budget Request reflects a strategic alignment of resources in a constrained fiscal environment while eliminating woke and weaponized grant programs that previously funded radical DEI projects.”

So happy to see this out! Such a collaborative effort, and one of the most challenging and rewarding projects due to life events: "The authors wish to acknowledge baby Bowie (MEL), and baby Maya (SGL) for the inspiration and perspective their arrivals brought to the writing process." 💙

It sucks when your father is denied a visa to the country you live because he doesn’t have much money and because of the color of his skin.

Since people are liking the Bocchi colors, I have a whole collection of color palettes on my GitHub: github.com/cxli233/Colo... You will find the hex code, the preview, and the inspiration for each color palette. I hope some of them will be used. #DataVis

This paper originated from a simple idea: Since we want to study SAR11 growth physiology, let’s look at how one SAR11 bacterium becomes two SAR11 bacteria, inspired by the quote from François Jacob, “The dream of a bacterium: to produce two bacteria”.

New paper out in PNAS!!! 🎉 Do more plasmid copies mean faster evolution? 🧵 Dive into the story www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Incredibly proud to share this work, almost 6 years in the making, out this month in Science!!! 🎇 We've known for over a century that eukaryotes of all kinds anticipate the seasons (think: hibernation, flowering, reproduction!), but what about bacteria?🦠 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

The 2020 lockdown has steered me towards thinking a lot about the flow cytometry, as this was the only lab equipment that I mastered by then. It is a special experience that on the day my paper launches, I am at UTMSI helping @suleles.bsky.social set up the new flow cytometry (and meet cute Maya!).
