Exactly. A p-value below 0.05 does not automatically imply biological or clinical relevance. Effect size, uncertainty, and scientific context are essential. I recently explored these common misconceptions in an episode of Paper Explained: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KV2...

🚀 Excited to introduce Agar3000 - our open‑source tool for automatic colony counting! Developed by Vadym Sokhan, Agar3000 detects & counts microbial colonies directly from smartphone photos. We’ve validated it across multiple datasets, growth media, and illumination setups: lnkd.in/dAX2qdkB

What happens when two viruses coinfect the same host? Check out the first publication of my PhD, where we describe two new viruses from an extremophilic system! www.nature.com/articles/s42...

Very happy to share that HIDEN-SEQ is now out in @natmicrobiol.nature.com! Using this technique, we recapitulated decades of established phage genetics and uncovered new gene functions, including previously unknown anti-defense factors against several defense systems. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
