One of my favorite in class activities for bioinformatics is when we show reversibility of the burrows wheeler transform of the string🍌 by doing LF mapping!

We are deeply sadden by the sudden loss of Scott. He was an astounding mentor and brought so much to the community on top of his excellent science. His legacy will live on

Sadly, our colleague and friend Scott Hawley passed away this morning. He was an irreplaceable presence and force for good in the meiosis an Drosophila communities and will be sorely missed.

Just got a story approved to run on Monday on the crisis happening at the NSF.

If you are an NSF-funded scientist and have been personally impacted by the funding pause this week, I'd love to hear from you.

I'm begging a major news org to cover the fact NSF is defying the courts to enact Trump's unconstitutional executive order
