Discovery of two archaeal GDGT lipid modifying enzymes reveals diverse microbes capable of H-GDGT biosynthesis and modification | bioRxiv biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Very excited to share this new finding - experimental demonstration of methanogenesis in a novel member of the archaeoglobaceae suggests many other archaeal lineages containing divergent MCRs are also functional methanogens (even outside the euryarchaeota). 🎉
Out now in @ISMEJournal: We report on a novel methanogen (Methanoglobus nevadensis) that uses a divergent MCR complex to make methane. 🧫 #archaea #evolution #methane nature.com/articles/s41396-0…

My main PhD project is finally out!

In our newest paper just out in @ScienceMagazine we show that tiny marine worms from the Mediterranean can do what animals aren’t supposed to, make their own #phytosterol.

After a drought-induced reveal of Miocene-era fossils in 2021, a deluge of recent rain exposed others lurking just below the surface in one of the largest discoveries of its kind in California. today.csuchico.edu/students-…

Cards are still rolling in and entries are still being made, but as of right now, we’ve logged OVER 2000 SIGNED UNION CARDS! ❤️🌲 THANK YOU, STANFORD GRADS!

Today, Stanford graduate workers have announced our intent to unionize! Follow along and join us in solidarity as we fight to make Stanford a fair and safe workplace by giving graduate workers a real voice in our wellbeing. Stanford works because WE do! #StanfordGWU #SGWU
Paper’s up!

Debra Larson: I signed the settlement keeping the Title IX investigation out of his file because it was part of negotiations/legally we didn't have to include it. Then I signed off on his promotion to full because the Title IX wasn't in his file.
I can't.

This is exactly why people don’t report sexual violence. A man threatened to SHOOT HIS COLLEAGUES @ChicoState & he still goes on to win an award & keep his job. If they don’t believe or protect fellow professors, why would anyone feel they would be believed & protected? #MeToo
A prominent @ChicoState biology professor allegedly spoke of killing two female colleagues who cooperated in a 2020 investigation that found he had a prohibited sexual affair with a graduate student, state court and newly released university records show.

“It might have been handled differently today.”
Y’all. This is in 2020. Two years ago. Not the damn 1950s. Let’s be real, @ChicoState would & will continue to handle this the same damn way as they always have: ignoring it & protecting predators. This is status quo @calstate

Impactful words by @CarolynBertozzi today on how diversity in her trainees enabled creativity, not playing by the rules, and ultimately the work that built the field of bioorthogonal chemistry. Diverse science leads to better science!
