New study: "We find that scientists are overwhelmingly (95%) failing to publish their #code and that there has been no significant improvement over time, but we also find evidence that code sharing can considerably improve #citations, particularly when combined with #OpenAccess publication."

Code sharing increases citations, but remains uncommon
Biologists increasingly rely on computer code, reinforcing the importance of published code for transparency, reproducibility, training, and a basis for further work.www.researchsquare.com
A marine #microbe eating #plastic
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0025326X22010517?via%3Dihub
This #research used stable isotope probing (SIP) to demonstrate that the bacterium digests plastics (to CO2), and also incorporates the plastic's carbon into its biomass.
Cool study! So we may be feeding specific organisms with our plastic waste. What may this mean for microbial #ecology? An #impact for sure, but the scale remains elusive..
