We don’t often make a big deal about it, but The Molecular Ecologist has long offered merchandise for purchase to help cover our operating expenses, which are chiefly web hosting and small stipends for contributors. The platform we’d used for that was less than ideal, though — and we’ve finally set up shop on Redbubble, which offers a wider range of products at better pricing.
You can now purchase our “heliboot” logo on a wide array of apparel, mugs, and other accessories, get a poster print of the Molecular Ecology Flowchart, or pick a side in the eternal struggle between genetic drift and natural selection. Prices start at less than $20 for a tee (before shipping and sales tax), and all proceeds benefit the blog — so check out the whole range.
