I won't talk about NMeth @natmethods.nature.com forever (probably), but I do want to brag a bit about the November focus issue on cell segmentation and tracking, which is many ways is my last hurrah (and final editorial) for the journal.

In the midst of all that we are facing, I want us to think about who we are being told to look to for understanding in this moment, who is being propped up as the voice of wisdom, and ask how right were they in predicting this, a year ago, 5, 8 years ago, and then ask why they are being centered now

Very insightful thread about Jim Watson.
Bluetorial-Jim Watson

I met Jim Watson a few times but did not know him well. However, I was greatly influenced by his book “The Double Helix”. He was a complicated human being with some very, very bad features, but some good contributions.

What follows is my personal perspective.

RIP Rosalind Franklin and all the incredible women scientists whose discoveries are shamelessly stolen.

Breaking news: James Watson, the American scientist and Nobel laureate whose part in discovering the structure of DNA — the genetic blueprint for life — has died. He was 97.
James Watson, who helped unravel genetic blueprint for life, dies at 97
With Francis Crick, he co-discovered the double-helix structure of DNA. His reputation was tarnished when his later writings were condemned as racist.
