I'm deeply sorry to the people of Venezuela. There is no opposition party in the United States to counter the fascist regime's actions and the population is easily demagogued.

Ammonia oxidizing archaea and bacteria respond dynamically to drought in rewetted fen peatlands The impact of drought on ammonia oxidizing microbes (AOM) in peatlands remains unclear, despite their role in facilitating a rate-limiting step in nit…

Excited to share our new manuscript about how ammonia oxidizing microbes respond to drought in rewetted fens, combining high-and low-throughput methods for both RNA and DNA. Looking forward to continuing this work in WETSCAPES2.0!

I see 40-50 kids everyday with lunches in their hands

cause our library provided them for free all summer.
We had out snack bags to everyone of all ages, all year.

People in this county are less hungry because of the public library

Regulating AI Isn’t Enough. Let’s Dismantle the Logic That Put It in Schools. AI in schools isn’t progress — it’s a sign of how far we’ve strayed from the purpose of education.

"For decades, policy makers and profiteers have swapped human care for high-stakes testing, scripted curriculum, and surveillance. AI isn’t the disease — it’s a symptom of a colonizer’s model of schooling that is extractive and dehumanizing, rather than liberating."

I am honored to receive the ISME award for my poster presentation at ESM 2025, where I shared work on annotating ammonia oxidizing archaea genomes and mapping them against transcripts from fen peatlands. Feeling excited and inspired to return to research after a great conference!

"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

Early on, I learnt from the Russian intelligentsia that the only meaning of life lies in conscious participation in the making of history. The more I think of that, the more deeply true it seems to be. The more I think of that, the more deeply true it seems to be. It follows that one must range oneself actively against everything that diminishes man, and involve oneself in all struggles which tend to liberate and enlarge him. This categorical imperative is in no way lessened by the fact that such an involvement is inevitably soiled by error : it is a worse error merely to live for oneself, caught within traditions which are soiled by inhumanity.

I think about this from Victor Serge a lot.
