Very happy to see @annaliisalaine's & my article out in @ScienceMagazine today! We reveal that the more a plant species invests in defense, the less potential it has for growth. All made possible by lots of public data & amazing open science contributions! science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

I was mad about something…and ended up accidentally running my new personal best. 🏃 Guess I should just get angry beforehand to speed up 🙃😂

Time for the biennial retweet of the Quick-and-Dirty Lab Hacks ™️ thread! Check out these sacrilegious, cursed-yet-useful and beautifully chaotic lab life tips and tricks 👇 (and add your own!)
What's your favorite quick-and-dirty lab technique that still works for you? I make E. coli electrocompetent cells straight from plate streakouts (no pre-culture in liquid) 😱 at room temperature 😱 with just water (no glycerol) 😱. Success rate >90%, don't @ me
