Update from Jeff Barrick on the #LTEE:
https://the-ltee.org/77000-generation-update-population-switcheroo-and-acinetobacter-interloper/
A couple of hiccups, but back on track. Being able to sequence #genomes, and revive frozen samples from previous #generations is a powerful combination.

Happy 35th birthay to the #LTEE! 🎂 🎼 Started #OTD in 1988 at UC-Irvine, raised at #MSU, now residing at UT-Austin in Jeff Barrick's lab and approaching 77,000 generations!!

The #LTEE has now passed 76,000 generations, with 1,000 now completed in the Barrick lab at UT-Austin.

Super interesting paper that analayzes one of the #LTEE populations that evolved stably coexisting #ecotypes from Joao Ascensao, Kelly Wetmore, Ben Good, Adam Arkin & Oskar Hallatschek. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-022-35677-5

For those interested in #evolution, here's a blog post I wrote about Stephen Jay Gould's famous book "Wonderful Life" and the genesis of the #LTEE.

In light of @jomcinerney@twitter.com's wonderful tweet below, I thought I'd write and share a blog post about Stephen Jay Gould's book and the genesis of the #LTEE.
