Ever wondered about what could be happening when two microbiomes meet? Even if not, maybe check our paper out in @PLOSCompBiol! journals.plos.org/ploscompbi… Thanks to @LechonPablo for being an amazing lead, with @EcologicalTom, @CleggTom, and @jacobcook1995 (@qmee_cdt).
The role of competition versus cooperation in microbial community coalescence

The role of competition versus cooperation in microbial community coalescence

Author summary In nature, new microbial communities often arise from the fusion of whole, previously separate communities (community coalescence). Despite the crucial role that interactions among...

New collaborative work with @GabYvonDurocher, @paquiydeleite, and @CleggTomshowing that that mutualistic/cooperative species interactions can (will?) amplify the temperature sensitivity of microbial community respiration: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Species interactions amplify the temperature dependence of microbial community respiration

Species interactions amplify the temperature dependence of microbial community respiration

The sensitivity of microbial community respiration to temperature is crucial to understanding the effects climate change on the carbon cycle. However, large uncertainties about the magnitude of this...

@PawarLab's welcome dinner for @emma_cavan and visiting speaker John Donohue, and just generally celebrating spring! Note that @DGKontopoulos looks appropriately euphoric.

Roughly speaking, there are two ways to study the behavior of a theoretical model: with math, or with a computer. You can use math to derive properties of the model. Or you can use a computer to si…

Interesting discussion with Jeff Houlahan in the Replies - he argues that when you do simulation modeling, you always know (a priori) that any parameters you vary will affect model outcome (null always false). I don't buy it - but do you? scientistseessquirrel.wordpr…
Of course you can do significance testing on simulation data!

Of course you can do significance testing on simulation data!

Warning: wonkish. Also long (but there’s a handy jump). Over the course of a career, you become accustomed to reviewers raising strange objections to your work.  As sample size builds, though, a fe…
