261 followers · 697 posts · Server ecoevo.socialI just released gcplyr v1.5.0 on github.
gcplyr is an #RStats package that makes it easy to wrangle and do model-free analyses of #microbial growth curve data
https://mikeblazanin.github.io/gcplyr/
v1.5.0 includes:
- fixes for critical bugs in derivative calculation
- improved handling of NA values, including several new functions
- new function for linear interpolation
- new args when calculating area under the curve

Instead I just released gcplyr v1.3.0 on github
gcplyr is an #RStats package that makes it easy to wrangle and do model-free analyses of #microbial growth curve data
v1.3.0 includes:
- new methods to calculate lag time and doubling time
- improved warnings for common situations
- improved documentation

14 followers · 5 posts · Server ecoevo.social#MicroEvo22 was a fantastic meeting. Great line-up, great talks, great conversations.
✅ perfect length of sessions and breaks ☕
✅ 10am start to allow travel and encourage late-night socialising 🍷
✅ conference dinner mixing people across institutions and career stages 🐔 🐣
Can we do this every year?

Every single talk was amazing and the poster session was buzzing! — day 2 promises to be equally exciting

I would love to make this tool as useful to the #microbialecology #microbialevolution #microbiology communities as it has been in my own research

Ahead of #MicroEvo22 next week I thought I'd take the pulse of the microbial evolution field...
It is in rude health!
Here is a plot of the proportion of microbiology papers that are about microbial evolution: this has grown consistently since 2000 and in 2021 made up >12% of microbiology papers (or 9700/78000)

After only launching our #MicrobialEvolution theme in 2021 #MicroEvo22 will be the largest scientific meeting hosted by #MicrobiologySociety this year except for the Annual Congress
The numbers:
135 delegates
24 speakers (~60% female)
65 posters
Exciting times for our field!
