I had the honor of completing my first REU in Jan Amend's lab back in 2017. Always a great person to talk to, a great first mentor. I know he will be missed.
Shall we dissect how completely absurd the claims in this tweet are? It's a lesson in how scientific work can provide a thin veneer of plausibility, which is then packaged with more absurd claims in a classic motte-and-bailey. This tweet has half a million views!
Retirement is coming. I gave my last class lecture today. Gave my first one in 1988, 35 years ago. Today was General Ecology and the topic was Global Ecology. I chose to look at how the Earth has changed since I first started lecturing. A series of Tweets --

Two #OpenAccess@Nature papers published today shed light on the genomics of Mexico. Mexican Biobank (N~6K, https://t.co/Q9C7JVwu6n) & Mexico City Prospective Study (N~140k, https://t.co/wZASFN4oxb) delve deep into the genetics of previously underrepresented population.
In a post #AlphaFold world, we can use protein structures in ways we never could before. Can we build phylogenies with them? Are they any good? Yes! Foldtree (https://t.co/GarG48Y21B) surpasses traditional sequence-based methods, even for closely related proteins.👇
Want to make an impact on how scientists and engineers think about data?
KBase is looking for a biological data architect to help us transform how we connect data across biological systems and scales and turn theory into reality! More ➡️ https://t.co/0oR7nIYBUD.
Our OOPSLA'23 paper is now on arXiv. We developed a new pedagogy for teaching Rust's ownership model, and we evaluated the pedagogy's learning outcomes with data from thousands of Rust learners.
