An interesting piece on the benefits of cooperation in science
In 'Prisoner's Science', @FangFerric and I analyze three situations that scientists face (see table below) through the lens of the Prisoner's dilemma and conclude that cooperation is the best option journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…

This is bad news.
Extensive tornado damage to a Pfizer drug manufacturing site in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, on Wednesday, has threatened critical supplies for U.S. hospitals. The property held one-fourth of its injectable medications for hospitals. See the damage: nyti.ms/3pVDfmS

I’m delighted that our paper on the Multicellularity Long Term Evolution Experiment (MuLTEE) has, at long last, been published. This paper establishes the foundations of what I’d like to work on for the rest of my career. 1/25 Free, full access link: rdcu.be/dbPA9
