I'm super excited to finally launch my new science podcast at https://www.scienceisfuncast.com/, also on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. This has been a really fun side project for the past year and I've now got a dozen or so episodes in the vault. Looking forward to releasing them to the world and I hope someone out there enjoys listening to them as much as I've enjoying recording them.

At the request of the UCSF leadership we are now operating a small "skeleton crew" that is maintaining the Gnotobiotic Core and our SPF colony. Everyone else is hunkered down at home enjoying some experiment-free days.
