One of my favorite books is WHERE THE ANIMALS GO, which highlights the questions and science enabled by new biologging technologies. Together they paint a new picture of the natural world.

I’m fascinated by this CA e-bike initiative: giving out 1,500 e-bikes around the state. https://ebikeincentives.org/ I hope it’s being thoroughly studied. What are the economists saying? I expect a lot of positive externalities. I wrote about a similar idea: Scibetter.com/supply

We're passing an important new milestone today at the Experiment Foundation: The grantees have become the grantors. Two new categories launched today: Plant Biology & MPA Innovation. Both Science Angels were previous (exceptional) grantees—now with programs of their own.

Eager to get ahold of this. First, I learned so much from this cohort of researchers. I’m excited for everyone to see the work. Second, I think the Kit model is a fun “so crazy it just might work” idea in publishing. I’m excited to see how the format feels.

RIP to one of the world’s most interesting ships. I wish I could have experienced this: “The full transition from horizontal to vertical took 30 minutes, but the final 49 seconds were said to be the most gut-wrenching as it settled into its new orientation.”

Last year, I suspected that more VCs would start grant programs for scientists. scibetter.com/Hollywood Starting a thread here to keep track of those announcements.

Science in action 👇 Follow along with (nearly) real-time discovery, rather than waiting years to read the publication.
