This paper represents the culture of our lab. Our hope is that the daily standup becomes adopted more widely in academic science as a simple way to enhance communication, transparency, and psychological safety, promoting accountability and teamwork. 2/

Wait - there's more!

There are also two Spotlights highlighting exciting research @cp-cellrepphyssci.bsky.social and @science.org, as well as a Scientific Life from @jestsai.bsky.social and co sharing insights to allow for scientists to be fiscally responsible with their grant funding!

We are incredibly grateful to the reviewer and editor @sanniejculbertson.bsky.social for excellent feedback that ultimately improved our manuscript! 📑 5/
