I have had so many discussion about this with fellow researchers. Wow, I can’t believe this is finally being implemented!
I've been advocating for this for many years, having been involved in evaluation of similar grant schemes OS and seen how much wasted effort it avoids. Great outcome.

Another exciting paper from @greeninglab !
Our latest preprint shows archaea live on air too! Acidianus scavenges atmospheric H2 and CO, at a wide range of temperatures, using novel hydrogenases. Work led by the brilliant @BobLeung4 during his PhD. We'd value any feedback before we submit in Jan! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
