For the third time in a dozen years, the U.S. scientific community is digging in for a potentially lengthy partial federal government shutdown that promises to disrupt research and funding programs. https://scim.ag/4pQ9y0K
U.S. scientists gird for yet another government shutdown
Political impasse to hobble research agencies—and perhaps enable layoffs

This is a love letter to our friends and colleagues, the fantastic team that ran @gigascience.bsky.social until last month, with our thoughts on their unexpected departure. We wish them and the journal's new team the best. May GS continue their critical work as #OpenScience and #OpenData stewards.

A 6000-year-long genomic transect from the Bogotá Altiplano reveals multiple genetic shifts in the demographic history of Colombia
The hunter-gatherer gene pool of the Bogotá Altiplano was replaced by Central American ancestry at least 2000 years ago.

NIH funding supporting the HMMER and Infernal software projects has been terminated. NIH states that our work, as well as all other federally funded research at Harvard, is of no benefit to the US.
