The Gates Foundation will now require grant recipients to share manuscripts as preprints and stop covering fees for open access publishing. I spoke with researchers and publishers on how these changes might impact publishing. Read more nature nature.com/articles/d4158…

Coming out of my Twitter hiatus temporarily to let everyone know the Meiosis GRS program is up! We have a fantastic selection of oral presentations scheduled, and I for one cannot wait! See you all in a couple months! #Meiosis4Ever grc.org/meiosis-grs-co…
