- Reposted by Chaitra AgraharBiologist folk (especially in evolutionary biology and/or ecology, but it don’t matter): Can you give me your favorite examples of trade offs in biology? Organism or system don’t matter. Primary literature or reviews preferred.

Now out in @natcomms.nature.com, we analysed music listening patterns of over 2.5 million people and demographics to examine mechanisms driving cultural diversity.

- Reposted by Chaitra AgraharPeople often ask about this and worth reiterating: there are individual PI's labs that cost more than bioRxiv, which serves the whole world. We are working towards a long-term, stable, distributed funding strategy. It's trival $$. Reminder: Research $10^5 journal paper $10^3, preprint $10^1.
- Reposted by Chaitra AgraharWorried about losing access to US federal data that may go off-line, or already is? You’re not alone—but duplication isn’t the answer. Many ongoing efforts have already archived key datasets and many more are ongoing. Check out these existing resources and, if you can, support their work. 🧵

- Reposted by Chaitra AgraharI had a hard time finding women physicists here. So I made a starter pack for #female and #under-represended #minorities in #physics, in short #FURMIP. Please spread the word and let me know if you would like to be added. go.bsky.app/2JeYsDzat://did:plc:2ehh3aap3e7ye6r4jq6w4eza/app.bsky.graph.starterpack/3lbhvqvr53f2y
- Reposted by Chaitra AgraharPresented today at #ICSB2024 by @chaitraagrahar.bsky.social - very clear presentation of a complex concept #SystemsBiology #MathematicalBiology
- Thank you Christine! Yes, we have the work I presented today as a preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2402.04498
- Reposted by Chaitra AgraharNice job @chaitraagrahar.bsky.social - interesting #ISCB2024 talk. Will you publish your method? Would love to read further.
